Answer:

Explanation:

n = m(g +a)

n= normal force (N)

m=mass (kg)

g=acceleration of gravity

a= acceleration of elevator

rearrange:

a= n/m - g

a= (810 N/73 kg) - 9.8 m/s ^2

a= 1.3 m/s ^2 up

and the acceleration is upwards bc her weight is less than the scale reading

The magnetic field of an electromagnetic wave in a vacuum is Bz =(2.4μT)sin((1.05×107)x−ωt), where x is in m and t is in s. You

tatiyna

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

$B_z=(2.4\mu T)\sin (1.05\times 10^7x-\omega t)$

Em wave is in the form of

$B=B_0\sin (kx-\omega t)$

where $\omega =frequency\ of\ oscillation$

$k=wave\ constant$

$B_0=Maximum\ value\ of\ Magnetic\ Field$

Wave constant for EM wave k is

$k=1.05\times 10^7 m^{-1}$

Wavelength of wave $\lambda =\frac{2\pi }{k}$

$\lambda =\frac{2\pi }{1.05\times 10^7}$

$\lambda =5.98\times 10^{-7} m$

What is the height of a building that an object is dropped from if it has a mass of 3 kg and hits the ground with a velocity of

Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

125 m

Explanation:

m = 3kg

v = 50m/s

u = 0m/s

a = +g = 10m/s²

s = H = ?

using the formula,

v² = u² + 2as

50² = 0² + 2(10)(H)

2500 = 20H

H = 2500/20

H = 125m

A 6 m long, uniform ladder leans against a frictionless wall and makes an angle of 74.3 ◦ with the floor. The ladder has a mass

olganol [36]

Answer: µ=0.205

Explanation:

The horizontal forces acting on the ladder are the friction(f) at the floor and the normal force (Fw) at the wall. For horizontal equilibrium,

f=Fw

The sum of the moments about the base of the ladder Is 0

ΣM = 0 = Fw*L*sin74.3º - (25.8kg*(L/2) + 67.08kg*0.82L)*cos74.3º*9.8m/s²

Note that it doesn't matter WHAT the length of the ladder is -- it cancels.

Solve this for Fw.

0= 0.9637FwL - (67.91L)2.652

Fw=180.1/0.9637

Fw=186.87N

f=186.81N

Since Fw=f

We know Fw, so we know f.

But f = µ*Fn

where Fn is the normal force at the floor --

Fn = (25.8 + 67.08)kg * 9.8m/s² =

910.22N

µ = f / Fn

186.81/910.22

µ= 0.205

Why is the overall charge of the atom neutral or zero?

MrRissso [65]

Answer:

Explanation:

this is because the neutrons do not have a charge, the things that have charge in an atom are electrons and protons.

and in the nucleus of an atom, there are protons and neutrons so you can see that A is not the answer

if you see the periodic table, you will know that the number of electrons and protons are equal, so the charges cancel each other out, hence the charge of an atom will be neutral

let me give you a tip which I got from my teacher, never write there is no charge in the atom, this suggests that there is no protons or electrons.

instead, write, the it is neutral

hope it helps if not please report it so that someone else gets to try it out

A total charge of 4.70 is distributed on two metal spheres. When the spheres are 10 cm apart, they each feel a repulsive force o

Anna35 [415]

Answer:0.114 C

Explanation:

Given

Total 4.7 C is distributed in two spheres

Let $q_1$ and $q_2$ be the charges such that

$q_1+q_2=4.7$

and Force between charge particles is given by

$F=\frac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}$

$4.7\times 10^11=\frac{9\times 10^9\times q_1\cdot q_2}{0.1^2}$

$q_1\cdot q_2=0.522$

put the value of $q_1$

$q_2\left ( 4.7-q_2\right )=0.522$

$q_2^2-4.7q_2+0.522=0$

$q_2=\frac{4.7\pm \sqrt{4.7^2-4\times 1\times 0.522}}{2}$

$q_2=0.114 C$

thus $q_1=4.586 C$
