Elizabeth, with a mass of 56.1kg stands on a scale in an elevator. Total mass of elevator plus Elizabeth=850kg. As the elevator

starts moving, the scale reads 450N. Find the acceleration and tension in the cable.

Answer:

acceleration = 1.79 m/s^2

Tension = 6817 N

Explanation:

First let's find Elizabeth's weight:

P = m*g = 56.1 * 9.81 =  550.34\ N

Her weight is greater than the normal force (N = 450 N), so the elevator is going downwards.

The acceleration of Elizabeth is given by:

P - N = m*a

Where P is the weight of Elisabeth, N is her normal force, m is her mass and a is the acceleration. Then, we have that:

56.1*9.81 - 450 = 56.1*a

a = 100.34 / 56.1 = 1.79\ m/s^2

The tension in the cable is given by:

P - T = m*a

In this case, we use the total mass, so we have:

850*9.81 - T = 850*1.79

T = 850 * 8.02 = 6817\ N

kirill [66]

Answer:45\hat{i}+50\hat{j}

Explanation:

Truck velocity=50 km/hr

police car velocity =45 km/hr

Let they start at t=0 s

After one hour

truck displacement=50\times 1=50 km

In vector Form(r_1)=50\hat{j}

For Police car displacement=45\times 1=45 km

in vector form(r_2)=-45\hat{i}

r_{12}=50\hat{j}-(-45\hat{i})

r_{12}=45\hat{i}+50\hat{j}

single goose sounds a loud warning when an intruder enters the farmyard. Some distance from the goose, you measure the sound lev
Goryan [66]

Answer:

The sound level of the 26 geese is  Z_{26}= 96.15 dB

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The  sound level is Z_1 =  81.0 \ dB

     The number of geese is N = 26

Generally the intensity level of sound is mathematically represented as

        The intensity of sound level in dB  for one  goose is mathematically represented as

                       Z_1 = 10 log [\frac{I}{I_O} ]

Where I_o is the  threshold level of intensity with value  I_o = 1*10^{-12} \  W/m^2

            I is the intensity for one goose in W/m^2

For 26 geese the intensity would be  

          I_{26} = 26 * I

   Then  the intensity of 26 geese in dB is  

              Z_{26} = 10 log[\frac{26 I }{I_o} ]

               Z_{26} = 10 log (\ \ 26 *  [\frac{ I }{I_o} ]\ \ )

               Z_{26} = 10 log (\ \ 26  \ \ ) *   (\ \  10 log [\frac{ I }{I_o} ]\ \ )

 From the law of logarithm we have that

              Z_{26} = 10 log 26 +  10 log [\frac{I}{I_0} ]

                    = 14.15 + 82

                    Z_{26}= 96.15 dB
