Answer: T is greater

Explanation:

Since the elevator is moving against gravity more work will be done on the rope

T= m(g+a)

Answer:

T is greater when the elevator is accelerating upwards.

Explanation:

The tension in the cable is given by the formula

T = m(g+a)

Taking upwards as positive, when the elevator is accelerating upwards a is positive and and g+a is greater than g

So the tension is greater than the weight mg.

But when the elevator is accelerating downwards the, the acceleration a is negative and g +a in the equation above is less than g and as a result the Tension force T is less than the weight w.

if we ignore air resistance the mass of an object does not affect the rate at which it accelerate why?​
quester [9]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The acceleration due to gravity on an object is independent of the mass of the object. This is so because, the acceleration due to gravity depends only on the radius of the earth and the mass of the earth.

As a result of this, all objects are accelerated to the same extent and should reach the ground at the same time when released from a height as long as other forces other than gravity are not at work.

In the demolition of an old building, a 1,300 kg wrecking ball hits the building at 1.07 m/s2. Calculate the amount of force at
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer: F = 1391 N

Explanation:

The information given to you are:

Mass M = 1300 kg

Acceleration a = 1.07 m/s^2

The magnitude of the force striking the building will be

F = ma

Where

F = force

Substitute mass M and acceleration a into the formula

F = 1300 × 1.07

F = 1391 N

Therefore, the wrecking ball strikes the building with a force of 1391 N

An electron is accelerated by a 3.6 kv potential difference. the charge on an electron is 1.60218 × 10−19 c and its mass is 9.10
katen-ka-za [31]
By definition, the potential energy is:
 U = qV
 Where,
 q: load
 V: voltage.
 Then, the kinetic energy is:
 K = mv ^ 2/2
 Where,
 m: mass
 v: speed.
 As the power energy is converted into kinetic energy, we have then:
 U = K
 Equating equations:
 qV = mv ^ 2/2
 From here, we clear the speed:
 v = root (2qV / m)
 Substituting values we have:
 v = root ((2 * (1.60218 × 10 ^ -19) * 3600) /9.10939×10^-31))
 v = 3.56 × 10 ^ 7 m / s
 Then, the centripetal force is:
 Fc = Fm
 mv ^ 2 / r = qvB
 By clearing the magnetic field we have:
 B = mv / qr
 Substituting values:
 B = (9.10939 × 10 ^ -31) * (3.56 × 10 ^ 7) / (1.60218 × 10 ^ -19) * 0.059
 B = 3.43 × 10 ^ -3 T
 Answer:
 
A magnetic field that must be experienced by the electron is:
 
B = 3.43 × 10 ^ -3 T
