A 77-kg man stands on a spring scale in an elevator. Starting from rest, the elevator ascends, attaining its maximum speed of 1.

2 m/s in 0.87 s. The elevator travels with this constant speed for 5.0 s, undergoes a uniform negative acceleration for 1.8 s, and then comes to rest. What does the spring scale register in each of the following time intervals

Answer:

Explanation:

From the question, we can see that the elevator is at a constant speed, invariably, acceleration is zero. And thus, there is no external force acting in the man, asides from force of gravitation acting on the man between those 5s. Now, we solve the question using newton's second law of motion.

The second law of motion states that, "the acceleration of an object is dependent upon two variables - the net force acting upon the object and the mass of the object."

Summation Fy = ma(y)

F(n) - F(g) = 0

F(n) - mg = 0

F(n) = mg

F(n) = 77*9.81

F(n) = 755.37N

Answer:

Explanation:

Given:

Mass, M = 77 kg

U = 0 m/s

g = 9.81 m/s^2

A.

Since the elevator is not moving, no change in velocity, a = 0 m/s^2

Total force = N - Fg

= (M × g) - (M × a)

The only force acting is the normal force, N = M × g

= 77 × 9.81

= 755.37 N

= 0.755 kN.

A health care provider suspects a client has developed posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Select the necessary criterion to v
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

The necessary criterion to validate the PTSD (posttraumatic stress disorder) is criterion A, (one required): the person was exposed to: death, threatened death, actual or threatened serious injury, or actual or threatened sexual violence,one symptom (or more): inability to remember an important aspect of the event, from criterion B, one symptom (or more): wars survivors, persistent and exaggerated negative beliefs about oneself, others, or the world, and persistent negative emotional state.to criterion C: old age abused; persistent distorted cognitions about the cause or consequences of the event.

Explanation:

DSM-5 PTSD diagnosis measures, assesses, or evaluates dissociative subtypes, which causes disconnection from the surrounding world or from oneself.

The DSM-5 manual, for the PTSD diagnosis, includes the DSM-IV/ICD-9 309.81 to the ICD-10 F43.10.

An experienced mental health provider, such as a psychiatrist or psychologist, is generally in charge of the diagnosis.

To be diagnosed with PTSD, an adult must have at least one avoidance symptom re-experiencing symptom for at least 1 month.

How fast must a 2.70-g ping-pong ball move in order to have the same kinetic energy as a 145-g baseball moving at 31.0 m/s
Helen [10]

Answer:

227 m/s

Explanation:

Kinetic energy formula:

  • \displaystyle \text{KE} = \frac{1}{2} mv^2
  • where m = mass of the object (kg)
  • and v = speed of the object (m/s)

Let's find the kinetic energy of the 145-g baseball moving at 31.0 m/s.

First convert the mass to kilograms:

  • 145-g → 0.145 kg

Plug known values into the KE formula.

  • \displaystyle \text{KE} = \frac{1}{2} (.145)(31.0)^2
  • \displaystyle \text{KE} = 69.6725 \ \text{J}

Now we want to find how fast a 2.70-g ping pong ball must move in order to achieve a kinetic energy of 69.6725 J.

First convert the mass to kilograms:

  • 2.70-g → 0.00270 kg

Plug known values into the KE formula.

  • \displaystyle 69.6725 = \frac{1}{2} (.00270)v^2
  • \displaystyle \frac{2(69.6725)}{.00270} =v^2
  • 57609.25926=v^2
  • v=227.1767137

The ping-pong ball must move at a speed of 227 m/s to achieve the same kinetic energy as the baseball.
