- 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

A certain string can withstand a maximum tension of 39. N without breaking. A child ties a 0.43 kg stone to one end and, holding
frez [133]

Answer:

Bottom of the circle.

Explanation:

At the top of the circle the tension and the weight contribute on being the centripetal force, at the middle of the circle only the tension contributes on being the centripetal force (the weight being perpendicular to it), while <u>at the bottom</u> of the circle the tension contributes on being the centripetal force (as always) <em>but the weight against to it</em>, so here is where the tension must be greater to allow the same centripetal force as the other cases, thus here is where the string will break.

Two stationary point charges of 3.00 nC and 2.00 nC are separated by a distance of 50.0 cm. An electron is released from rest at
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

1. the electric potential energy of the electron when it is  at the midpoint is - 2.9 x 10^{-17} J

2. the electric potential energy of the electron when it is 10.0 cm from the 3.00 nC charge is - 5.04 x  10^{-17} J

Explanation:

given information:

q_{1} =  3 nC = 3 x 10^{-9} C

q_{2} =  2 nC = 2 x 10^{-9} C

r = 50 cm = 0.5 m

the electric potential energy of the electron when it is  at the midpoint

potential energy of the charge, F

F = k \frac{q_{e}q}{r}

where

k = constant (8.99 x 10^{9} Nm^{2} /C^{2})

electron charge, q_{e} = - 1.6 x 10^{-19} C

since it is measured at the midpoint,

r = \frac{0.5}{2}

  = 0.25 m

thus,

F = F_{1}+ F_{2}

  = k\frac{q_{e} q_{1} }{r} + k\frac{q_{e} q_{2} }{r}

  = \frac{kq_{e} }{r} (q_{1} +q_{2})

  = (8.99 x 10^{9})( - 1.6 x 10^{-19} )(3 x 10^{-9} +2 x 10^{-9})/0.25

  = - 2.9 x 10^{-17} J

the electric potential energy of the electron when it is 10.0 cm from the 3.00 nC charge

r_{1} = 10 cm = 0.1 m

r_{2} = 0.5 - 0.1 = 0.4 m

F = k\frac{q_{e} q_{1} }{r} + k\frac{q_{e} q_{2} }{r}

  = kq_{e}(\frac{q_{1} }{r_{1} }+\frac{q_{2} }{r_{2} })

  = (8.99 x 10^{9})( - 1.6 x 10^{-19} )(3 x 10^{-9} /0.1+2 x 10^{-9}/0.4)

  = - 5.04 x  10^{-17} J

The distance between 4 nodes (3 sections, 2 sections= wavelength) is 15.0cm. The frequency of the source is 10Hz. What's the spe
Natalija [7]

Answer:

the speed of the waves is 150 cm/s

Explanation:

Given;

frequency of the wave, f = 10 Hz = 10

distance between 4 nodes, L = 15.0 cm

The wavelength (λ) of the wave is calculated as follows;

Node to Node = λ/2

L = 2(Node to Node) = (4 Nodes) = 2 (λ/2) = λ

Thus, λ = L = 15.0 cm

The speed (v) of the wave is calculated as follows;

v = fλ

v =  10 Hz   x  15.0 cm

v = 150 cm/s

Therefore, the speed of the waves is 150 cm/s
