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.

A boat moves through the water of a river at 10m/s relative to the water, regardless of the boat ‘s direction . If the water in
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

The appropriate solution is "61.37 s".

Explanation:

The given values are:

Boat moves,

= 10 m/s

Water flowing,

= 1.50 m/s

Displacement,

d = 300 m

Now,

The boat is travelling,

= 10+1.50

= 11.5 \ m/s

Travelling such distance for 300 m will be:

⇒ v = \frac{d}{t} \ sot \ t

      =\frac{d}{v}

On putting the values, we get

      =\frac{300}{11.5}

      =26.08 \ s

Throughout the opposite direction, when the boat seems to be travelling then,

= 10-1.50

= 8.5 \ m/s

Travelling such distance for 300 m will be:

⇒ v=\frac{v}{t} \ sot \ t

      =\frac{d}{v}

On putting the values, we get

      =\frac{300}{8.5}

      =35.29 \ s

hence,

The time taken by the boat will be:

= 26.08+35.29

= 61.37 \ s

A 120-kg object and a 420-kg object are separated by 3.00 m At what position (other than an infinitely remote one) can the 51.0-
djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

1.045 m from 120 kg

Explanation:

m1 = 120 kg

m2 = 420 kg

m = 51 kg

d = 3 m

Let m is placed at a distance y from 120 kg so that the net force on 51 kg is zero.

By use of the gravitational force

Force on m due to m1 is equal to the force on m due to m2.

\frac{Gm_{1}m}{y^{2}}=\frac{Gm_{2}m}{\left ( d-y \right )^{2}}

\frac{m_{1}}{y^{2}}=\frac{m_{2}}{\left ( d-y \right )^{2}}

\frac{3-y}{y}=\sqrt{\frac{7}{2}}

3 - y = 1.87 y

3 = 2.87 y

y = 1.045 m

Thus, the net force on 51 kg is zero if it is placed at a distance of 1.045 m from 120 kg.

What is the peak emf generated by a 0.250 m radius, 500-turn coil is rotated one-fourth of a revolution in 4.17 ms, originally h
zysi [14]

Complete question:

What is the peak emf generated by a 0.250 m radius, 500-turn coil is rotated one-fourth of a revolution in 4.17 ms, originally having its plane perpendicular to a uniform magnetic field 0.425 T. (This is 60 rev/s.)

Answer:

The peak emf generated by the coil is 15.721 kV

Explanation:

Given;

Radius of coil, r = 0.250 m

Number of turns, N = 500-turn

time of revolution, t = 4.17 ms = 4.17 x 10⁻³ s

magnetic field strength, B = 0.425 T

Induced peak emf = NABω

where;

A is the area of the coil

A = πr²

ω is angular velocity

ω = π/2t = (π) /(2 x 4.17 x 10⁻³) = 376.738 rad/s =  60 rev/s

Induced peak emf = NABω

                               = 500 x (π x 0.25²) x 0.425 x 376.738

                               = 15721.16 V

                               = 15.721 kV

Therefore, the peak emf generated by the coil is 15.721 kV
