The person is standing on the floor of the elevator, and he isn't
floating up or smashing through the floor.

So the person's acceleration is exactly the same as the elevator's
acceleration.

Now, Newton's second law of motion says:

F = M · a

   (the net force on the person) = (the person's mass) x (his acceleration)

   Net force = (80 kg) x (0.5 m/s²)

   = 40 newtons .

A super ball is dropped from a height of 100 feet. Each time it bounces, it rebounds half the distance it falls. How many feet w

Crank

The total distance travelled by the ball after the fourth impact is 275 feet.

Explanation:

Given-

Height, h = 100 feet

Rebounds half the distance

Distance in feet for the fourth time, x = ?

For the first time, the distance travelled by the ball is, x = 100 feet

For the second time, it will bounce up to 50 feet and fall upto 50 feet( half of 100 feet)

So, the distance travelled after the second impact, x = 100 + 50 + 50 = 200 feet

For the third time, it will bounce up to 25 feet and fall upto 25 feet( half of 50 feet)

So, the distance travelled after the third impact, x = 200 + 25 + 25 = 250 feet

For the fourth time, it will bounce up to 12.5 feet and fall upto 12.5 feet( half of 25 feet)

So, the distance travelled after the fourth impact, x = 250 + 12.5 + 12.5 = 275 feet

Therefore, total distance travelled by the ball after the fourth impact is 275 feet.

Law Incorporation [45]

Here, you need to use your "Protractor" as it is given in the question, but we can calculate the value with the help of our mathematical calculation too:
[ Protractor can be use only in real life, not here ]

Draw an imaginary line from initial position to final position.
Now, In that triangle, tan x = P/B
tan x = 1.4 / 2
tan x = 0.70
x = tan⁻¹ (0.70)
x = 35 [ tan 35 = 0.70 ]

In short, Your Answer would be 35 degrees

Hope this helps!

A merry-go-round rotates from rest with an angular acceleration of 1.45 rad/s2. How long does it take to rotate through (a) the

elena55 [62]

Answer:

(a) t = 5.66 s

(b) t = 8 s

Explanation:

(a)

Here we will use 2nd equation of motion for angular motion:

θ = ωi t + (1/2)∝t²

where,

θ = Angular Displacement = (3.7 rev)(2π rad/1 rev) = 23.25 rad

ωi = initial angular speed = 0 rad/s

t = time = ?

∝ = angular acceleration = 1.45 rad/s²

Therefore,

23.25 rad = (0 rad/s)(t) + (1/2)(1.45 rad/s²)t²

t² = (23.25 rad)(2)/(1.45 rad/s²)

t = √(32.06 s²)

t = 5.66 s

(b)For next 3.7 rev

θ = ωi t + (1/2)∝t²

where,

θ = Angular Displacement = (3.7 rev + 3.7 rev)(2π rad/1 rev) = 46.5 rad

ωi = initial angular speed = 0 rad/s

t = time = ?

∝ = angular acceleration = 1.45 rad/s²

Therefore,

46.5 rad = (0 rad/s)(t) + (1/2)(1.45 rad/s²)t²

t² = (46.5 rad)(2)/(1.45 rad/s²)

t = √(64.13 s²)

t = 8 s
