This is a good time to review Newton's 3rd law of motion:
"For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction."

Gravitational force always acts in pairs.
Whatever force the Earth attracts something with,
the thing attracts the Earth with exactly the same force.

If Earth attracts a person with a gravitational force of <span><span>7.0 × 10² </span>newtons,
the person attracts Earth with a gravitational force of 7.0 × 10² newtons.

Your weight on Earth is the same as the Earth's weight on you !

lana66690 [7]

Answer:

(A) Reading will be 65 N

(B) Net force on the elevator will be 49.076 N    

Explanation:

We have given the balance force = 65 N

Acceleration due to gravity g=9.8m/sec^2

We know that W=mg

So 65=m\times 9.8

m = 6.632 kg

(a) In first case as the as the speed is constant so the force on the elevator will be 65 N

(B) In second case as the elevator is decelerating at a rate of 2.4m/sec^2

So net acceleration = 9.8-2.4=7.4m/sec^2

So net force on elevator will be = m× net acceleration = 6.632×7.4 = 49.076 N

What problems do pathogens cause in our society?
kotegsom [21]

Pathogens are microorganisms that cause infectious diseases. Bacteria and viruses are the main pathogens in the world today.

The major problem that pathogen cause in society is that they are the agents of infection and disease. 

An infection results when a pathogen invades the body and begins growing within a host.  A disease results when tissue function is impaired due to an infection.

Due to diseases, affected people can not work  which negatively affects the economy, and the sick may end up dying causing a lot of grief, and robbing society of a father, a mother or child.

The government has to put money aside for health care which would otherwise have been used for other things to help the society.
