You are conducting an experiment inside an elevator that can move in a vertical shaft. A load is hung vertically from the ceilin

Ivan

Answer: The elevator must be accelerating.

Explanation:

As the tension force is opposing to the the force of gravity on the load which is hung vertically, and the tension force can adopt any value in order to comply with Newton's 2nd law, if the tension force is less than the force due to gravity, this means that all system is not in equilibrium, so it must be accelerating.

If we assume that the downward is the positive direction, we can write:

mg - T = ma

If T = 0.9 mg, ⇒ mg (1-0.9) =0.1 mg = m a ⇒a = 0.1 g , in downward direction.

A book falls off a shelf that is 10.0 m tall. What is the velocity at which the book hits the ground?

Elena L [17]

Answer:

14 m/s

Explanation:

The motion of the book is a free fall motion, so it is an uniformly accelerated motion with constant acceleration g=9.8 m/s^2 towards the ground. Therefore we can find the final velocity by using the equation:

$v^2 = u^2 + 2gd$

where

u = 0 is the initial speed

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration

d = 10.0 m is the distance covered by the book

Substituting data, we find

$v=\sqrt{0^2 + 2(9.8 m/s^2)(10.0 m)}=14 m/s$

Which statementsabout a neutral atom are correct? Check all that apply.

KIM [24]

Answer:

1, 2, 4, 5 are correct

Explanation:

1) This is true because In a neutral atom, the number of positive charges (protons) is equal to the number of negative charges (electrons).

2) This is true because the mass of the atom which is made up of the protons and neutrons, is located in the tiny nucleus.

3) This is not true because the positively charged particles in the nucleus are called protons.

4) This is true because electrons move around the nucleus in diffuse areas known as orbitals.

5) This is true because opposite charges attract each other. And electron is a negative charge.

6) This is not true because the radius of the electron cloud is normally 10,000 times larger than the radius of the nucleus.

A discus thrower turns with angular acceleration of 50 rad/s2, moving the discus in a circle of radius 0.80m. Find the radial an

anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

The value of tangential acceleration $\alpha_{t} =$ 40 $\frac{m}{s^{2} }$

The value of radial acceleration $\alpha_{r} = 80 \frac{m}{s^{2} }$

Explanation:

Angular acceleration = 50 $\frac{rad}{s^{2} }$

Radius of the disk = 0.8 m

Angular velocity = 10 $\frac{rad}{s}$

We know that tangential acceleration is given by the formula $\alpha_{t} =$ $r \alpha$

Where r = radius of the disk

$\alpha$ = angular acceleration

⇒ $\alpha_{t} =$ 0.8 × 50

⇒ $\alpha_{t} =$ 40 $\frac{m}{s^{2} }$

This is the value of tangential acceleration.

Radial acceleration is given by

$\alpha_{r} = \frac{V^{2} }{r}$

Where V = velocity of the disk = r $\omega$

⇒ V = 0.8 × 10

⇒ V = 8 $\frac{m}{s}$

Radial acceleration

$\alpha_{r} = \frac{8^{2} }{0.8}$

$\alpha_{r} = 80 \frac{m}{s^{2} }$

This is the value of radial acceleration.
