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

A battery charges a parallel-plate capacitor fully and then is removed. The plates are immediately pulled apart. (With the batte
Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

<em>There will be an increase in potential difference.</em>

Explanation:

As we know that the potential difference depends upon the capacitance.

ΔV = Q/C

When battery is disconnected the charge remains constant on the plates but the capacitance decreases. As the capacitance has an inverse relation with the potential difference, there will be an increase in it.

In addition to that the potential difference can also be defined as the product of field and distance between the plates. As the charge is constant so the field is constant. Upon increasing the separation between the plates the potential difference will also increased.

Two ball bearings of mass m each moving in opposite directins with equal speed v collide head on with each other.predict the out
posledela

Yo sup??

since the collision is elastic therefore we can say that the two balls will then move in opposite direction.

If ball 1 was moving from east to west then after collision it will move from west to east

and if ball 2 was moving from west to east then it will start moving from east to west.

Hope this helps.

A radar for tracking aircraft broadcasts a 12 GHz microwave beam from a 2.0-m-diameter circular radar antenna. From a wave persp
NISA [10]

A) 750 m

First of all, let's find the wavelength of the microwave. We have

f=12GHz=12\cdot 10^9 Hz is the frequency

c=3.0\cdot 10^8 m/s is the speed of light

So the wavelength of the beam is

\lambda=\frac{c}{f}=\frac{3\cdot 10^8 m/s}{12\cdot 10^9 Hz}=0.025 m

Now we can use the formula of the single-slit diffraction to find the radius of aperture of the beam:

y=\frac{m\lambda D}{a}

where

m = 1 since we are interested only in the central fringe

D = 30 km = 30,000 m

a = 2.0 m is the aperture of the antenna (which corresponds to the width of the slit)

Substituting, we find

y=\frac{(1)(0.025 m)(30000 m)}{2.0 m}=375 m

and so, the diameter is

d=2y = 750 m

B) 0.23 W/m^2

First we calculate the area of the surface of the microwave at a distance of 30 km. Since the diameter of the circle is 750 m, the radius is

r=\frac{750 m}{2}=375 m

So the area is

A=\pi r^2 = \pi (375 m)^2=4.42\cdot 10^5 m^2

And since the power is

P=100 kW = 1\cdot 10^5 W

The average intensity is

I=\frac{P}{A}=\frac{1\cdot 10^5 W}{4.42\cdot 10^5 m^2}=0.23 W/m^2

You open the refrigerator in your room and put in a case of room-temperature root beer. After an hour, the root beer is ice cold
agasfer [191]

Answer:

warmer

Explanation:

The law of conservation of energy tells us that energy cannot be created or destroyed, it can be transferred or converted from one from to another. In this question when the beer that is at room temperature is put in the fridge, it loses some heat energy. This heat energy is not destroyed, the fridge through  multiple processes eventually releases this heat to the room through pipes at the back which is why they are normally warm. the heat from the food inside is expelled to the room. It is not lost.
