Answer:
R = 710.7N
L = 67.689 N
During gravity fall L = R = 0 N
Explanation:
So the acceleration that the elevator is acting on the woman (and the package) in order to result in a net acceleration of 0.15g is
g + 0.15g = 1.15g
The force R that the elevator exerts on her feet would be product of acceleration and total mass (Newton's 2nd law):
a(m + M) = 1.15g(57 + 6) = 1.15*9.81*63 = 710.7N
The force L that she exerts on the package would be:
am = 1.15g *6 = 1.15*9.81*6 = 67.689N
When the system is falling, all have a net acceleration of g. So the acceleration that the elevator exerts on the woman (and the package) is 0, and so are the forces L and R.
The answer is B. This form of magnesium chloride is not a liquid but a solid that is white and colorless.
