Answer:increased

Explanation:

It is given that elevator speed is increasing while moving upward i.e.its acceleration is increasing .

This causes the apparent to be increased if measured using weighing machine.

considering upward direction to be positive

N-mg=ma

N=m(g+a)

where N=Normal reaction=Apparent weight

a=acceleration of Elevator

thus you feel as if your weight is increased.

How much force is required to move a electron through an electric field with strength of 1.375 x 10^19 N/C?
Luda [366]

Answer:

The magnitude of the force required to move the electron through the given field is 2.203 N

Explanation:

Given;

The field strength of the electron, E = 1.375  x 10¹⁹ N/C

charge of electron, q = 1.602 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

The magnitude of the force required to move the electron through the given field is calculated as follows;

F = Eq

F = (1.375  x 10¹⁹ N/C) (1.602 x 10⁻¹⁹ C)

F = 2.203 N

Therefore, the magnitude of the force required to move the electron through the given field is 2.203 N

Kaylis [27]
<span>You are given a QL = -26 μC charge that is placed on the x-axis at x = - 0.2 m and a QR = 26 μC charge that is placed at x = +0.2 m. The answers are:

The x-component of the electric field at x = 0 m and y = 0.2 m is 3.
The y-component of the electric field at x = 0 m and y = 0.2 m is 2.

When atoms of an element are excited, they emit specific wavelengths of light. How is this similar to a fingerprint when Fraunho
Anika [276]

Answer:

As you may know, each element has a "fixed" number of protons and electrons.

These electrons live in elliptical orbits around the nucleus, called valence levels or energy levels.

We know that as further away are the orbits from the nucleus, the more energy has the electrons in it. (And those energies are fixed)

Now, when an electron jumps from a level to another, there is also a jump in energy, and that jump depends only on the levels, then the jump in energy is fixed.

Particularly, when an electron jumps from a more energetic level to a less energetic one, that change in energy must be compensated in some way, and that way is by radiating a photon whose energy is exactly the same as the energy of the jump.

And the energy of a photon is related to the wavelength of the photon, then we can conclude that for a given element, the possible jumps of energy levels are known, meaning that the possible "jumps in energy" are known, which means that the wavelengths of the radiated photons also are known. Then by looking at the colors of the bands (whose depend on the wavelength of the radiated photons) we can know almost exactly what elements are radiating them.

Find the GCF 12, 18, and 84
ahrayia [7]
To find the answer, plot down the factors for every number.

12:   1, 2 ,3 ,4, 6, 12

18:   1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18

84:  1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 12

If you noticed, the number that was common to the 3 numbers, were 1, 2, 3, and 6
And 6 is the bigger number
So 6 is your GCF

The speed at which a light aircraft can take off is 120 km/h. (A) What is the minimum constant acceleration required for the pla
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

A) a = 2.31[m/s^2]; B) t = 14.4 [s]

Explanation:

We can solve this problem using the kinematic equations, but firts we must identify the data:

Vf= final velocity = take off velocity = 120[km/h]

Vi= initial velocity = 0, because the plane starts to move from the rest.

dx= distance to run = 240 [m]

v_{f} ^{2} =v_{i} ^{2}+2*g*dx\\where:\\v_{f}=120[\frac{km}{h} ]*\frac{1hr}{3600sg} * \frac{1000m}{1km} =33.33[m/s]\\\\Replacing\\33.33^{2}=0+2*a*(240)\\ a=\frac{11108.88}{2*240}\\  a=2.31[m/s^2]\\

To find the time we must use another kinematic equation.

v_{f} =v_{i} +a*t\\replacing:\\33.33=0+(2.31*t)\\t=\frac{33.33}{2.31}\\ t=14.4[s]
