Answer:
a) F = 2250 Ib
b) F = 550 Ib
c) new max force ( F newmax ) = 2850 Ib
Explanation:
A) The force the wall of the elevator shaft exert on the motor if the elevator starts from rest and goes up
max capacity of elevator = 24000 Ibs
counterweight = 1000 Ibs
To calculate the force (F) :
we first calculate the Tension using this relationship
Counterweight (1000) - T = ( 1000 / g ) ( g/4 )
Hence T = 750 Ib
next determine F
750 + F - 2400 = 2400 / 4
hence F = 2250 Ib
B ) calculate Tension first
T - 1000 = ( 1000/g ) ( g/4)
T = 1250 Ib
F = 2400 -1250 - 2400/ 4
F = 550 Ib
C ) determine design limit
Max = 2400 * 1.2 = 2880 Ib
750 + new force - 2880 = 2880 / 4
new max force ( F newmax ) = 2850 Ib
Answer:
electrons
Explanation:
The magnitude of the electric field outside an electrically charged sphere is given by the equation

where
k is the Coulomb's constant
Q is the charge stored on the sphere
r is the distance (from the centre of the sphere) at which the field is calculated
In this problem, the cloud is assumed to be a charged sphere, so we have:
is the maximum electric field strength tolerated by the air before breakdown occurs
is the radius of the sphere
Re-arranging the equation for Q, we find the maximum charge that can be stored on the cloud:

Assuming that the cloud is negatively charged, then

And since the charge of one electron is

The number of excess electrons on the cloud is
