Answer:
The question is incomplete. However, I believe, it is asking for the acceleration of the elevator. This is 3.16 m/s².
Explanation:
By Hooke's law, 
F is the force on a spring, k is the spring constant and e is the extension or compression.
From the question,
This is the force on the mass suspended on the spring. Its acceleration, a, is given by
This acceleration is more than the acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s². Hence the elevator must be moving up with an acceleration of
12.96 - 9.8 m/s² = 3.16 m/s²
Answer:
dT(t)/dt = k[T5 - T(t)]
Explanation:
Since T(t) represents the temperature of the object and T5 represents the temperature of the surroundings, according to Newton's law of cooling, the rate at which an object's temperature changes is directly proportional to the difference in temperature between the object and the surrounding medium, that is dT(t)/dt ∝ T5 - T(t)
Introducing the constant of proportionality
dT(t)/dt = k[T5 - T(t)]
which is the desired differential equation
Answer:
0.056 psi more pressure is exerted by filled coat rack than an empty coat rack.
Explanation:
First we find the pressure exerted by the rack without coat. So, for that purpose, we use formula:
P₁ = F/A
where,
P₁ = Pressure exerted by empty rack = ?
F = Force exerted by empty rack = Weight of Empty Rack = 40 lb
A = Base Area = 452.4 in²
Therefore,
P₁ = 40 lb/452.4 in²
P₁ = 0.088 psi
Now, we calculate the pressure exerted by the rack along with the coat.
P₂ = F/A
where,
P₂ = Pressure exerted by rack filled with coats= ?
F = Force exerted by filled rack = Weight of Filled Rack = 65 lb
A = Base Area = 452.4 in²
Therefore,
P₂ = 65 lb/452.4 in²
P₂ = 0.144 psi
Now, the difference between both pressures is:
ΔP = P₂ - P₁
ΔP = 0.144 psi - 0.088 psi
<u>ΔP = 0.056 psi</u>
Answer:
Current, I = 3.57A
Explanation:
A current of I amperes means that I Coulombs of charge flows through the conductor (heating coil) per second.
Therefore, in time t, the total charge (Q) passing through any point in which the current (C) flows will be given by the equation;
Q = It
Where; Q is the charge in coulombs; I is the current in amperes; t is the time in seconds.
From the question, we were given the following parameters;
Q = 25C, t= 7secs and I =?
From the equation, Q = It
We make current, I the subject of formula;
Thus, I = Q/t
Substituting into the equation;
I = 25/7
I = 3.57Amp.
