Suppose you are in an elevator. As the elevator starts upward, its speed will increase. During this time when the elevator is mo

ving upward with increasing speed, your weight will be:

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.

The force between the two objects is 19.73 nN.

<u>Explanation: </u>

Any force acting between two objects tends to be directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the two objects. And this kind of attraction force between two objects is termed as gravitational force.

So if we consider M_{1} and M_{2} as the masses of both objects and let d be the distance of separation of two objects. Then the force between the two objects can be determined as below:

                      \text {Gravitational force}=\frac{G \times M_{1} \times M_{2}}{d^{2}}

As gravitational constant G=6.67 \times 10^{-11} \mathrm{m}^{3} \mathrm{kg}^{-1} \mathrm{s}^{-2}, M_{1} = 20 kg and  M_{2} = 100 kg, while d = 2.6 m, then

                    \text {Gravitational force}=\frac{6.67 \times 10^{-11} \times 20 \times 100}{(2.6)^{2}}=\frac{6.67 \times 20 \times 10^{-9}}{6.76}

Thus, we get finally,

                   \text {Gravitational force}=19.73 \times 10^{-9} \mathrm{N}

As we know, nano denoted by letter 'n' equals to 10^{-9}

So the force acting between two objects is 19.73 nN.

Which is an example of reflection
Elena-2011 [213]

Common examples include the reflection of light, sound and water waves. The law of reflection says that for specular reflection the angle at which the wave is incident on the surface equals the angle at which it is reflected. Mirrors exhibit specular reflection.

Scientists often say that light and other forms of electromagnetic radiation have a dual nature
Alex

Answer:

Behaves as a wave.

Explanation:

The dual nature of light means that light behaves as a wave. If the light consisted of small particles, the alternating light and dark bands would not have occurred.

Sometimes it behaves like a particle (called a photon), which explains how light travels in straight lines.

A 2000 kg car experiences a braking force of 10000N and skids to a 14 m stop. What was the speed of the car just before the brak
Fudgin [204]

Answer:

V = 11.83 m/s

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass = 2000 kg

Force = 10000N

Distance = 14 m

To find the final velocity of the car;

First of all, we would determine the acceleration of the car;

Acceleration = force/mass

Acceleration = 10000/2000

Acceleration = 5 m/s²

Next, we would use the third equation of motion to find the final velocity;

V^{2} = U^{2} + 2aS

Where;

V represents the final velocity measured in meter per seconds.

U represents the initial velocity measured in meter per seconds.

a represents acceleration measured in meters per seconds square.

S represents the displacement measured in meters.

Substituting into the equation, we have;

V² = 0² + 2*5*14

V² = 0 + 140

V = √140

V = 11.83 m/s
