The force needed to accelerate an elevator upward at a rate of 2 m / s^{2} is 2000 N or 2 kN.

<u>Explanation: </u>

As per Newton's second law of motion, an object's acceleration is directly proportional to the external unbalanced force acting on it and inversely proportional to the mass of the object.

As the object given here is an elevator with mass 1000 kg and the acceleration is given as 2 m / s^{2}, the force needed to accelerate it can be obtained by taking the product of mass and acceleration.

                  \text {Force}=\text {Mass} \times \text {Acceleration}

                  \text { Force }=1000 \times 2=2000 \mathrm{N}=2 \text { kilo Newon }

So 2000 N or 2 kN amount of force is needed to accelerate the elevator upward at a rate of 2 m / s^{2}.

A television camera lens has a 17-cm focal length and a lens diameter of 6.0 cm. what is its number?
IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

= 2.83

Explanation:

F number (N) is given by the formula;

  F- number = f/D

where f = focal length of lens and D = diameter of the aperture  

Therefore;

F number = 17 cm/6 cm

                <u> = 2.83</u>

You are looking at yourself in a plane mirror, a distance of 3 meters from the mirror. your brain interprets what you are seeing
AleksandrR [38]

You are looking at yourself in a plane mirror, a distance of 3 meters from the mirror. your brain interprets what you are seeing in the mirror as being a person standing 6 meters from you.

<h3>Calculation</h3>

The plane mirror shows an exact replica of the real world. that means the distance of you from the mirror is the same distance as your reflection form the mirror at the opposite side of the mirror.

Thus, distance of image from the plane mirror is same as the distance of object (person) from the plane mirror but the image is formed behind the mirror.

Thereby we have v=u=3 m

Thus, distance between image and the person

is d = v + u = 3 + 3 = 6 m

Thus, the person is 6 meters away from the image.
