A man weighs himself twice in an elevator. When the elevator is at rest, he weighs 824 N; when the elevator starts moving upward
kifflom [539]

Answer: c. 1.3 m/s^2

Explanation:

When he is at rest, is weight can be calculated as:

W = g*m

where:

m = mass of the man

g = gravitational acceleration = 9.8m/s^2

We know that at rest his weight is W = 824N, then we have:

824N = m*9.8m/s^2

824N/(9.8m/s^2) = m = 84.1 kg

Now, when the elevators moves up with an acceleration a, the acceleration that the man inside fells down is g + a.

Then the new weight is calculated as:

W = m*(g + a)

and we know that in this case:

W = 932N

g = 9.8m/s^2

m = 84.1 kg

Then we can find the value of a if we solve:

932N = 84.1kg*(9.8m/s^2 + a)

932N/84.1kg = 11.1 m/s^2 = 9.8m/s^2 + a

11.1 m/s^2 - 9.8m/s^2 = a = 1.3 m/s^2

The correct option is C

xenn [34]

Answer:

The planet Jupiter completes one revolution of the sun in 362710000 seconds. Long time, right?

Explanation:

3.154x10^7=3.154x10000000=31540000

11.5x31540000=362710000

An electron with a charge of -1.6 × 10-19 coulombs experiences a field of 1.4 × 105 newtons/coulomb. What is the magnitude of th
neonofarm [45]

Answer:

Electric force, F=2.24\times 10^{-14}\ N

Explanation:

It is given that,

Charge on an electron is -1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C

Electric field, E=1.4\times 10^5\ N/m

We need to find the magnitude of the electric force on this electron due to this field. The electric force is given by :

F=qE\\\\F=1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 1.4\times 10^5\\\\F=2.24\times 10^{-14}\ N

So, the electric force is 2.24\times 10^{-14}\ N.

A carrot hangs from the ceiling by a rope,
valentina_108 [34]

Answer: Diagram B

Explanation:

A free body diagram shows the forces acting on an object in a certain scenario.

In this scenario there are two forces acting on the carrot: the Tension force (Ft) from the rope that the carrot is hanging from and Gravitational force(Fg) which is pulling the carrot to the Earth.

The diagram depicting this is diagram B.
