A 72.9 kg man stands on a spring scale in an elevator. Starting from rest, the elevator ascends, attaining its maximum speed of

1.21 m/s in 0.80 s. It travels with this constant speed for 4.97 s, undergoes a uniform downward acceleration for 1.52 s, and comes to rest. What does the spring scale register (a) before the elevator starts to move?

Answer:

(a) 72.9 kg

Explanation:

Before the elevator starts to move, only gravitational force exerts on the man, this force is generated by the man mass and the gravitational acceleration, which in turn register in the scale. So the scale would probably indicate the man mass, which is 72.9 kg.

Could dark matter be a higher dimensional object? Why?
REY [17]
Well dark matter is , in a layman terms just a concept used to identify missing mass in the universe. (extremely simplified and probably wrong but look that up). It could be but then if it is then we would still be able to percive the matter in some form. All we know from instruments is that they have mass and absorb light. We would need more info before any conclusions but it is 100% a possibility. But remember that when someone says "3-d" for example they are talking about a certain space.. technically matter exists on all planes (at least all the planes we know of in our local universe.) The laws of the cosmos are not yet proven to be constant and even if they are what of outside it?

Coherent light with wavelength 610 nm passes through two very narrow slits, and theinterference pattern is observed on a screen
andriy [413]

Answer:

= 1220 nm

= 1.22 μm

Explanation:

given data:

wavelength \lambda = 610 nm = 610\times  10 ^{-9} m

distance of screen from slits D = 3 m

1st order bright fringe is 4.84 mm

condition for 1 st bright is

d sin \theta =\lambda     ---( 1)

andtan \theta = \frac{y}{ D}

\theta = tan^{-1}\frac{(y }{D})

= 0.0924 degrees

plug theta value in equation 1 we get

d sin ( 0.0924) = 610 \times 10 ^{-9}

d = 3.78\times 10^{-4} m

condition for 1 st dark fringe

d sin \theta =\frac{λ'}{2}

\lambda '= 2 d sin\theta

= 2λ    since from eq (1)

= 1220 nm

= 1.22 μm

For a storm to be a blizzard, the wind must be at least
Anton [14]
For a storm to be a blizzard, the wind must be at least 35 miles per hour. This is just one criteria for considering a storm to be a blizzard. The wind speed of 35 miles per hour should reduce the visibility to less than 400 meters. The last criteria is that the storm must continue for a time frame of at least 3 hours.
