A 975-kg elevator accelerates upward at 0.754 m/s2, pulled by a cable of negligible mass. Find the tension force in the cable.

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts of equilibrium and Newton's second law.

According to the description given, it is under constant ascending acceleration, and the balance of the forces corresponding to the tension of the rope and the weight of the elevator must be equal to said acceleration. So

\sum F = ma

T-mg = ma

Here,

T = Tension

m = Mass

g = Gravitational Acceleration

a = Acceleration (upward)

Rearranging to find T,

T = m(g+a)

T = (975)(9.8+0.754)

T= 10290.15N

Therefore the tension force in the cable is 10290.15N

What do we mean when we say that energy levels are quantized in atoms?
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

Electrons are located in specific orbit corresponding to discrete energy levels

Explanation:

In Bohr's model of the atom, electron orbit the nucleus in specific levels, each of them corresponding to a specific energy. The electrons cannot be located in the space between two levels: this means that only some values of energy are possible for the electrons, so the energy levels are quantized.

A confirmation of Bohr's model is found in the spectrum of emission of gases. In fact, when an electron jumps from a higher energy level to a lower energy level, it emits a photon whose energy is exactly equal to the difference in energy between the two levels: since the energy levels are discrete, this means that the emitted photons cannot have any value of wavelength, but also their wavelength will appear as a discrete spectrum. This is exactly what it is observed in the spectrum of emission of gases.

20 Accelerated motion is represented by a<br> line on a nonlinear distance time graph.
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Curved line

Explanation:

Acceleration of motion is represented by a curved line on a non-linear distance-time graph.

The acceleration of a non-linear motion is depicted using a parabola which is a curve. This implies that the velocity is constantly changing and the distance covered by the body is also changing with equal amount of time.

  • A plot of this will give a parabola. This can be further established using one of the equations of motion below:

    x = u + \frac{1}{2}at ²

This is a quadratic function where:

x is the distance

u is the initial velocity

t is the time

a is acceleration

A quadratic function gives a curved line which is a parabola.

A mosquito can fly with a speed of 1.10 m/s with respect to the air. Suppose a mosquito flies east at this speed across a swamp.
sineoko [7]

Answer:

The velocity of Mosquito with respect to earth will be 0.302m/s

Explanation:

V(ma) = 1.10 m/s, east  Velocity of mosquito with respect to air

V(ae) = 1.4 m/s at 35°  Velocity of air with respect to Earth in west of south direction.

Velocity of Mosquito with respect to earth will be  

V(me) = V(ma) + V(ae)

We need to find the mosquito’s speed with respect to Earth in the x direction.

V(x, me) = V(x, ma) + V(x, ae) = V(ma) + V(ae)(cos theta(ae) )

Angle (ae) = –90.0° − 35°=−125°

V(x, me) = 1.10 + (1.4)Cos(-125)

             = 1.10 + 1.4(-0.57)

             = 1.10 -0.798

              = 0.302

So the velocity of Mosquito with respect to earth will be 0.302m/s

What hidden costs of using DDT did Rachel Carson call attention to?
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

The ban was intended to prevent the imminent extinction of ospreys, peregrine falcons, and bald eagles, our national bird, among other species; they were vulnerable because DDT caused a fatal thinning of eggshells, which collapsed under the weight of the parent incubating them.

Explanation:

The hidden cost was to control pests was washing off into rivers and streams, poisoning fish, birds, and even humans with toxic chemicals.

Hope this helps
