Answer:

1.25 m/s^2

Explanation:

m = 76 kg, R = 840 N

Let a be the acceleration of teh elevator in upward direction.

By use of Newton's second law

R - mg = m a

R = m ( g + a)

840 = 76 ( 9.8 + a)

a = 1.25 m/s^2

Calculate the force needed to accelerate a car of a mass 1000 kg by 3 m/s2
beks73 [17]

Answer:

<h2>3000 N</h2>

Explanation:

The force acting on an object given it's mass and acceleration can be found by using the formula

force = mass × acceleration

From the question we have

force = 1000 × 3

We have the final answer as

<h3>3000 N</h3>

Hope this helps you

A block is being pulled upward along an inclined surface at a constant speed. Which of the following statements is correct? Grou
Alex17521 [72]

Answer:The net force on the block is zero.

Explanation:

Given

Block is being pulled upward along an inclined surface at a constant speed

As speed is constant and moved in a straight line along the plane therefore its velocity is also constant .

and change in velocity is equal to acceleration therefore acceleration is zero here i.e. net force is zero acting on the body.
