Answer:

0.94 m/s^2 downwards

Explanation:

m = 70 kg, m g = 70 x 9.8 = 686 N

R = 620 N

Let the acceleration be a, as the apparent weight decreases so the elevator is moving downwards with an acceleration a.

mg - R = ma

686 - 620 = 70 x a

a = 0.94 m/s^2

If the IMA of a machine is 2 and the effort force is 50 newtons, then the force applied to the resistance is _____. 48 N 50 N 25
zysi [14]

IMA stands for ideal mechanical advantage, which is the theoretical force amplification factor on an ideal mechanical device free of friction, deformations, etc.


If the applied force (effort) is 50N, then the force applied to the resistance is multiplied by the IMA=2 to get 100N.

Answer:

4.384 * 10^13

Explanation:

Given the expression :

[(6.67 * 10^-11) * (1.99 * 10^30)] ÷ [(1.74*10^3)*(1.74*10^3)]

Applying the laws of indices

[(6.67 * 1.99) *10^(-11 + 30)] ÷ [(1.74 * 1.74) * 10^3+3]

13.2733 * 10^19 ÷ 3.0276 * 10^6

(13.2733 / 3.0276) * 10^(19 - 6)

4.3840996 * 10^13

= 4.384 * 10^13

The drawing shows two situations in which charges are placed on the x and y axes. They are all located at the same distance of 5
ra1l [238]

Answer:

For situation (a)

net charge E = E₊₂ + E₋₅ + E₋₃

E =  K(q/d²)

where K = 8.99e9

d = 5.7cm = 5.7e-2m

Therefore,

E₊₂(x) = K(q/d²) = (8.99e9)× ((2.0e-6)÷(5.7e-2)) = 3.15e5(+x)

E₋₅(y) = K(q/d²) = (8.99e9)× ((5.0e-6)÷(5.7e-2)) =  7.88e5(+y)

E₋₃(x) = K(q/d²) = (8.99e9)× ((3.0e6)÷(5.7e-2)) =  4.73e5(+x)

thus

E = E₊₂ + E₋₅ + E₋₃

= 3.15e5(x) + 7.88e5(y) + 4.73e6(x)

= 7.88e6(x) + 7.88e6(y)

use Pythagorean theorem

I <em>E </em>I  = \sqrt{(7.89e5)^{2}  + (7.89e5)^{2}} =  1.242e6\frac{N}{C}

∅ = tan^{-1}(\frac{7.88e5}{7.88e5} ) = tan^{-1}(1) = 45°

Thus for (a) net magnitude =  1.115e6\frac{N}{C} @ 45° above +x axis

for situation (b)

net charge E = E₊₄ + E₊₁ + E₋₁ + E₊₆

E₊₄(x) = K(q/d²) = (8.99e9)× ((4.0e-6)÷(5.7e-2)) = 6.30e5(+x)

 E₊₁(y) = K(q/d²) = (8.99e9)× ((1.0e-6)÷(5.7e-2)) = 1.58e5(-y)

E₋₁(x) = K(q/d²) = (8.99e9)× ((1.0e-6)÷(5.7e-2)) = 1.58e5(+x)

E₊₆(y) = K(q/d²) = (8.99e9)× ((6.0e-6)÷(5.7e-2)) = 9.46e5(+y)

thus,

E = E₊₄ + E₊₁ + E₋₁ + E₊₆

= 6.30e5(x) - 1.58e5(y) + 1.58e5(x) + 9.46e5(y)

= 7.88e5(x) + 7.88e5(y)

use Pythagorean theorem

I <em>E </em>I  = \sqrt{(7.88e5)^{2}  + (7.88e5)^{2}} =  1.242e6\frac{N}{C}

∅ = tan^{-1}(\frac{7.88e5}{7.88e5} ) = tan^{-1}(1) = 45°

Thus for (a) and (b) the net magnitude =  1.242e6\frac{N}{C} @ 45° above +x axis
