Which term means the weight of air measured in units of force per area?

1 answer:

3 0

Force per area is pressure so I think the answer would be air pressure. Relative pressure sounds like it is a measure of pressure relative to something else.

What is Newton's second law of motion?

Newton's second law of motion states that the rate of change of momentum is directly proportional to the applied force and the direction of change of momentum takes place towards direction of applied force.

<h3> $\bullet$ What do you come to know from Newton's second law of motion?</h3>

1. Concept of Momentum.

2. Measurement of Force.

Consider an elevator with a table and a book on top of the table. The mass of the table is 10kg and the mass of the book is 2kg.

Step2247 [10]

Newton's second law allows us to find the force of the block on the table is 126 N

Newton's second law says that the net force is proportional to the product of the mass and the acceleration of the body

Σ F = m a

Where the bold letters indicate vectors, m is the mass and the acceleration of the body

A free body diagram is a diagram where the forces are represented without the details of the bodies, in the attached we can see a free body diagram of the system.

Let's start by finding the acceleration of the elevator with kinematics

v = v₀ + a t

a = $\frac{v-v_o}{a}$

Where v and v₀ are the current and initial velocity, respectively, at acceleration and t is the time

a = $\frac{8-1}{2}$

a = 3.5 m / s²

Let's write Newton's second law for each body

The book

N₂ - W₂ + N₁ = m a

Table

N₁ - W₁ - W₂ = M a

W₁ = Mg

W₂ = mg

N₁ = (M + m) g + M a

N₁ = (10 + 2) 9.8 + 10 3.5

N₁ = 152.6 N

This is the reaction of the earth to the support of the block and the table

N₂ = ma + m g - N₁

N₂ = m ( a +g) - N₁

N₂ = 2 (3.5 + 9.8) - 152.6

N₂ = 26.6 - 152.6

N₂ = -126 N

The negative sign indicates that the direction is opposite to the one assigned, this is the action of the block on the table.

In conclusion using Newton's second law we can find the forces of the block on the table is 126 N

A 1500 kg elevator, suspended by a single cable with tension 16.0 kN, is measured to be moving upward at 1.2 m/s. Air resistance

kirill115 [55]

Tension in the Cable is 0.87 m/s6^2, Elevator's speed after it has moved 10m is 1.6*10^5 N, Work done by gravity is 1.47 * 10^3 N, Elevator Kinetic Energy is 13897.5J and Elevator Speed after rising to 10m is 4.312 m/s.

Tension is a pulling force that operates in one dimension along the cables' axes in the opposite direction from the direction of the applied force. The combined weight of the elevator box and the passenger riding inside it, in the case of an elevator, provides the pulling force in the cables is called Tension.

A moving object or particle's kinetic energy, which depends on both mass and speed, is one of its characteristics. The type of motion can be vibration, translation, rotation around an axis, or any combination of these. Kinetic energy is a type of energy that an item or particle possesses as a result of motion.

We know that,

Tension in the Cable

T = m(g+a) = g+a = T/m = 16 * 103 / 1500 = 10.67 m/s2

a = 10.67 - 9.8 = 0.87 m/s6^2

Elevator's speed after it has moved 10m.

U^2 = u^2 +2as

= 1.22 +2*0.87*10

=1.6*10^5 N

Work done by gravity = mg * 10 = 14700 * 10 = 1.47 * 10^3 N

Elevator Kinetic Energy = 1/2 mv^2 = 1/2*1500*18.53 = 13897.5J

Elevator Speed after rising to 10m ,

U^2 = u^2 +2as = 1.2 +2*0.87*10 = 18.6

U =(18.6)^1/2=4.312 m/s
