A 60.0-kg person is in an elevator with a mass of 2000 kg. The elevator moves vertically up through a distance of 24.0 m with a

constant speed of 4.00 m/s. How much work is done on this elevator system? Use g=10.0m/s^2.

The mass of the (elevator + person) is (2,000 kg + 60 kg) = 2,060 kg .

The weight is (mass x gravity) = (2,060 x 10) = 20,600 newtons

Work = (force x distance) = (20,600 newtons x 24m) = <em>494,400 joules</em>

The speed, acceleration, and how much time it takes don't make any
difference, unless you want the average power during the lift.

         Power = (work)/(time) =
           494,000 J / (24/4 m) =
           494,000 J / 6 sec = <em><u>82,400 watts</u></em>      wow !

The compound PCl5 decomposes into Cl2 and PCl3. The equilibrium of PCl5(g) Cl2(g) + PCl3(g) has a Keq of 2.24 x 10-2 at 327°C. W
nordsb [41]
Take note of the reaction formula which is PCl5=Cl2+PCl3.
The Keq = [Cl2] * [PCl3] / [PCl5]=2.24*10^-2.
For the reason that the volume is 1 liter, the concentration of Cl2 will be computed through: <span>(2.24 * 10^-2) * 0.235 / 0.174 </span> = 0.0303 mol/L is the answer.

How is sound wave produced?​
kramer

Answer:

Sound is produced when an object vibrates, creating a pressure wave.

Explanation:

This pressure wave causes particles in the surrounding medium (air, water, or solid) to have vibrational motion. ... The human ear detects sound waves when vibrating air particles vibrate small parts within the ear.

What is Archimedes principal ?​
Gnoma [55]

The Archimedes principle is a principle that is expressed as a law that states that a body immersed in a fluid, whether fully or partially, is subject to an upward force of the same magnitude as the weight of the fluid it displaces.

What is the wavelength of a wave that has a speed of 26 m/s and a frequency of 49? ? Show your work
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

Wave speed = Wavelength x Frequency

26 m/s = Wavelength x 49

Divide by 49 to find the wavelength:

The wavelength is approximately 0.53

What are some different kinds of bias and how can they ruin a research project
m_a_m_a [10]

Three types of bias can be distinguished: information bias, selection bias, and confounding. These three types of bias and their potential solutions are discussed using various examples.

Bias can damage research, if the researcher chooses to allow his bias to distort the measurements and observations or their interpretation. When faculty are biased about individual students in their courses, they may grade some students more or less favorably than others, which is not fair to any of the students.
