You are moving into an apartment and take the elevator to the 6th floor. Suppose your weight is 660 N and that of your belonging

s is 1100 N. (a) Determine the work done by the elevator in lifting you and your belongings up to the 6th floor (15.2 m) at a constant velocity. (b) How much work does the elevator do on you alone (without belongings) on the downward trip, which is also made at a constant velocity

Answer:

Explanation:

Total weight

My weight+weight of belongings

660+1100=1760N.

a. Work done by the elevator to travel a total height of 15.2m

Using newton law of motion

ΣF = ma

There are only two forces acting upward, the weight and the reaction by the elevator

Also note it is moving at constant velocity then, a=0

N - W=0

Then, N=W

N=1760N

So, workdone is given as

Wordone, =force × distance

Work done=1760×15.2

W=26,752J

W=26.752KJ

b. Work done on me alone is still need to go through the same process but will remove the weight of the belonging

Therefore,

Weight now = 660N

And using the same equation of motion

ΣF = ma

Comstant velocity, a=0

N - W=0

N=W

N=660N

Then, workdone

W=F×d

W=660×15.2

W=10,032J

W=10.032KJ

Answer:

A, 26752J

B, -10032J

Explanation:

See attachment below

Since the elevator is moving at a constant speed, we can then say

F(elev)=W(total)

While going up, the displacement is pointing upwards

W(up) = F*S = F*S cos0° = F*S

Since forces F and S point in the same direction, the angle in between them, thus is zero. We also know, F(elev) is the upward weight. Thus

W(up) = F*S = W(total)*S =

= (660N+1100N)*15.2m

= 1760N * 15.2m

= 26752J

While going downwards, the displacement S is pointing down and the weight going down is just the person, so we have

W(down) = F*S = F*S cos180° = -F*S

W(down) = -F*S = -W(total)*S

= -660 * 15.2

= - 10032J

Thus,

A wave is produced in a rope. The wave has a speed of 33 m/s and a frequency of 22 Hz. What wavelength is produced? 0. 67 m 0. 7
vekshin1

Answer:

Wavelength = <u>1.5 m</u>

Explanation:

The formula for waves in terms of wavelength, speed and frequency is:

Speed (v) = Frequency (f) × Wavelength (λ)

33 = 22 × λ

33 = 22λ

λ = \frac{33}{22}

So, λ = 1.5 m

a toy propeller fan with a moment of inertia of .034 kg x m^2 has a net torque of .11Nxm applied to it. what angular acceleratio
Harman [31]

Answer:

The  angular acceleration is  \alpha  = 3.235 \ rad/s ^2

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The moment of inertia is  I  =  0.034\ kg \cdot m^2

     The  net torque is  \tau  =  0.11\ N \cdot m

Generally the net torque is mathematically represented as

           \tau =  I  *  \alpha

Where \alpha is the angular acceleration so  

        \alpha  =  \frac{\tau }{I}

substituting values

         \alpha  =  \frac{0.1 1}{ 0.034}

        \alpha  = 3.235 \ rad/s ^2

A particle moves along a straight path through a displacement d = 2.5i + cj while a force F = 8.5i + -8.5j acts on it. The displ
Zanzabum

Answer:

Explanation:

Work is defined as the scalar product of force and distance

W=F•d

Given that

F = 8.5i + -8.5j. +×-=-

F=8.5i-8.5j

d = 2.5i + cj

If the work in the practice is zero, then W=0

therefore,

W=F•ds

0=F•ds

0=(8.5i -8.5j)•(2.5i + cj)

Note that

i.i=j.j=k.k=1

i.j=j.i=k.i=i.k=j.k=k.j=0

So applying this

0=(8.5i -8.5j)•(2.5i + cj)

0= (8.5×2.5i.i + 8.5×ci.j -8.5×2.5j.i-8.5×cj.j)

0=21.25-8.5c

Therefore,

8.5c=21.25

c=21.25/8.5

c=2.5

A physics professor demonstrates the Doppler effect by tying a 600 Hz sound generator to a 1.0-m-long rope and whirling it aroun
cluponka [151]

Answer:Highest frequency  =618.89Hz

Lowest frequency=582.22Hz

Explanation:

 The linear velocity of a sound generator  is related to angular velocity and is given as

Vs = rω  where

r = the radius of circular path = 1.0 m

ω is the angular velocity of the sound generator. = 100 rpm

1 rev/min = 0.10472 rad/s

100rpm =10.472 rad/ s

Vs = rω

= 1m x 10.472rad/ s=  10.472m/s

A) Highest frequency  heard by a student in the classroom = Maximum frequency. Using the Doppler effect formulae,

f max = (v/ v-vs) fs

Where , v is the speed of the sound in air at 20 degrees celcius =

343 metres per second

vs is the linear velocity of the sound generator=10.472m/s

fs is the frequency of the sound generator= 600 Hz

f max = (343/ 343 - 10.472) x 600

=343/332.528) x600

=618.89Hz

B) Lowest frequency  heard by a student in the classroom = Minimum frequency

f min = (v/ v+vs) fs

(343/ 343 + 10.472) x 600

=343/353.472) x 600

=582.22hz
