- A person is on an elevator that moves

Physics
1 answer:
Mademuasel [1]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The net force acting on the person is, F = 560 N

Explanation:

Given data,

The downward acceleration of the elevator, a = 1.8 m/s²

The weight of the person is, W = mg

                                                          = 686 N

Therefore the mass of the person,

                                           m = W /g

                                               = 686 / 9.8

                                               = 70 kg

The net force acting on the person,

                                           F = mg - ma

                                               = 686 - 70 x 1.8

                                               = 560 N

Hence, the net force acting on the person is, F = 560 N

9. How does the length of the hypotenuse in a right triangle relate to the lengths of the legs? (2 points)
konstantin123 [22]
<span>The pythagorean theorem addresses the length of the hypotenuse in relation to the length of the legs. The square root of the length of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of one leg squared plus the other leg squared. In other words, A squared plus B squared equals C squared where A and B are the lengths of the legs of the triangle and C is the length of the hypotenuse.</span>

natta225 [31]

Answer:

50 N

Explanation:

Efficiency of a machine can't be more than 1, so I assume you mean 40%.  (Remember, efficiency and mechanical advantage are not the same).

Efficiency is the ratio of work out of a system to the work in to the system.

e = Wout / Win

Work is force times distance, so:

e = (Fout × Dout) / (Fin × Din)

Rearranging:

Fin = (Fout × Dout) / (e × Din)

Fin = (Fout / e) × (Dout / Din)

Fin = (Fout / e) / (Din / Dout)

We know that e = 0.40, and Fout = 120 N.  Since there are 6 pulleys, we also know that Din/Dout = 6.

F = (120 N / 0.4) / 6

F = 50 N
