- 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

What would happen if a proton were added to the nucleus of the atom? (Check all that apply)
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

It would become a different element.

Explanation:

When you change the number of protons i.e, add a proton in the nucleus of an atom, you will change the atom from one element to a different element and also positive charge of the atom also increased by 1.

For example, adding a proton to the nucleus of an atom of hydrogen creates an atom of helium.

So, we conclude that by adding a proton the atom will change from one element to another element.

I need help with questions b and d, that’s all.<br><br> Thank you.
Mkey [24]

b).  The power depends on the RATE at which work is done.  

Power = (Work or Energy) / (time)

So to calculate it, you have to know how much work is done AND how much time that takes.

In part (a), you calculated the amount of work it takes to lift the car from the ground to Point-A.  But the question doesn't tell us anywhere how much time that takes.  So there's NO WAY to calculate the power needed to do it.

The more power is used, the faster the car is lifted.  The less power is used, the slower the car creeps up the first hill.  If the people in the car have a lot of time to sit and wait, the car can be dragged from the ground up to Point-A with a very very very small power ... you could do it with a hamster on a treadmill.  That would just take a long time, but it could be done if the power is small enough.

Without knowing the time, we can't calculate the power.

...

d).  Kinetic energy = (1/2) · (mass) · (speed squared)

On the way up, the car stops when it reaches point-A.  

On the way down, the car leaves point-A from "rest".

WHILE it's at point-A, it has <u><em>no speed</em></u>.  So it has no (<em>zero</em>) kinetic energy.

Question 1
To find centripetal acceleration, use the formula : centripetal acceleration = v^2/r
so answer would be (3.71)^2/42.85=0.32 (2d.p.)
Question 2
Force =ma
a= (9.98)^2/31.77=3.1350
Force= 3.1350 * 56.63 = 177.54 (2 d.p.)

Before using a string in a comparison, you can use either the To Upper method or the To Lower method to convert the string to up
Burka [1]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

If there's no preference over the string case (upper case or lower case), one can convert both strings to upper case or to lowercase and then compare the converted strings to test if they're equal or not.

An Illustration is

string a = "Boy"

string b = 'bOy"

if(a.ToUpper() == b.ToUpper() || a.ToLower() == b.ToLower())

{

Print "Equal Strings"

}

else

{

Print "Strings are not equal";

}

The above will first convert both strings and then compare.

Since they are the same (after conversion), the statement "Equal Strings" will be printed, without the quotes
