Answer:

Normal force,  F_{N} = 707 N

Given:

Mass of the rider, M = 72.1 kg

acceleration due ti gravity, g = 9.8 m/s^{2}

Velocity of the elevator is constant

Solution:

Since, the elevator is moving with a constant velocity, therefore, the frame we are dealing with is an inertial frame and will not allow any pseudo force to act on it.

The Normal force, N will now be equal to the weight, W of the body which is the product of its mass and the acceleration acting on the body due to gravity and is given by:

F_{N} = W = M\times g

putting the values in the above formula

F_{N} =  72.1\times 9.8 = 706.58 N

F_{N} = 707 N (approx)

A 100-turn, 3.0-cm-diameter coil is at rest in a horizontal plane. A uniform magnetic field 60%u2218 away from vertical increase
Xelga [282]

Answer:

Induced emf in the coil, E = 0.157 volts

Explanation:

It is given that,

Number of turns, N = 100

Diameter of the coil, d = 3 cm = 0.03 m

Radius of the coil, r = 0.015 m

A uniform magnetic field increases from 0.5 T to 2.5 T in 0.9 s.

Due to this change in magnetic field, an emf is induced in the coil which is given by :

E=-NA\dfrac{\Delta B}{\Delta t}

E=-100\times \pi (0.015)^2\times \dfrac{2.5-0.5}{0.9}

E = -0.157 volts

Minus sign shows the direction of induced emf in the coil. Hence, the induced emf in the coil is 0.157 volts.

Scientists have changed the model of the atom as they have gathered new evidence. One of the atomic models is shown below. Overl
olga55 [171]

Answer:

A). A few of the positive particles aimed at a gold foil seemed to bounce back off of the thin metallic foil.

Explanation:

Scientists decided to change the model of the atom when they discovered new evidence that showed 'few of the positive particles aimed at a gold foil seemed to bounce back off of the thin metallic foil.' On this ground, <u>Rutherford concluded that atom is mostly made up of empty space and thus, he proposed a nucleus model of atom in which the atom comprises of the tiny and positively charged nucleus is surrounded by electrons with a negative charge</u>. Thus, <u>option A</u> is the correct answer.

What is the largest possible magnitude of the acceleration of the electron due to the magnetic field?
Alina [70]
Thank you for posting your question here at brainly. But your question seems incomplete. I will assume you based the situation below:

<span>An electrons moves at 2.0x10^6 m/s through a region in which there is a magnetic field of unspecified direction and magnitude 7.4x10^-2 T. 

The </span> largest possible magnitude of the acceleration of the electron due to the magnetic field is <span>= 2.6 × 10 ¹⁶ m / s ²</span>

Boyle's law balloon was filled to a volume of 2.50 l when the temperature was 30.0∘
aliina [53]

To solve this we assume that the gas inside the balloon is an ideal gas. Then, we can use the ideal gas equation which is expressed as PV = nRT. At a constant pressure and number of moles of the gas the ratio T/V is equal to some constant. At another set of condition of temperature, the constant is still the same. Calculations are as follows:

T1 / V1 = T2 / V2

V2 = T2 x V1 / T1

V2 =284.15 x 2.50 / 303.15

<span>V2 = 2.34 L</span>

A motorcycle accelerated from 10 metre per second to 30 metre per second in 6 seconds. How far did it travel in this time ?
Ber [7]
U=10 m/s
v=30 m/s
t=6 sec

therefore, a=(v-u)/t
                   =(30-10)/6
                   =(10/3) ms^-2

now, displacement=ut+0.5*a*t^2
                              =60+ 0.5*(10/3)*36
                              =120 m
And you can solve it in another way:

v^2=u^2+2as
or, s=(v^2-u^2)/2a
       =(900-100)/6.6666666.......
       =120 m
