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

g on a string, and is stationary with respect to you. The tension in the string is measured to be 10% less than the force due to gravity on the load. No other forces are acting on the load. Which of the following statements about the elevator are correct?

Answer:

The elevator is not a inertial frame of reference.

Explanation:

Lets take load = W

The tension in the string =T

T= (1-0.1 )W

T=0.9 W

From Newtons second law

If elevator move up :

T- W = ma

T= W+ ma

It means that Tension is more than the W .But given that tension is 10% less than W.

If elevator move down:

W- T =  m a

T= W - m a

Yes it is true.It means that elevator is moving downward.

So we can say that the elevator is not a inertial frame of reference.

Answer:

Incomplete question

This is the completed question

If the resistor in the circuit had a larger resistance then the current would be then have to be proportionally smaller. Because the batteries each give off 1.5 volts then the current would have to be the variable that would change. What affect would using a 12V car battery have on the operation of your circuit? (Do not try this.) What would happen to the current? What would happen to the resistor?

Explanation:

Using ohms law as our basis

Ohms law state that, the voltage in an ohmic conductor is directly proportional to the current

V∝I

Resistance is the constant of proportionality

Then

V=iR

Since we want a relationship between current and resistance.

then, I=V/R

So, current is inversely proportional to Resistance

as the current increase the resistance reduce and as the current reduces the resistance increases.

a. So, increasing the voltage from 1.5V to 12V increases the current In the circuit because voltage Is directly proportional to I.

From ohms law

V=iR

When v =1.5V

I=1.5/R

When V increase to 12V

I=12/R

I.e, it increases by a factor of 8. Eight times it's initial value

b. Now, the resistance in the circuit is the constant of proportionality and it doesn't change in a given circuit expect when using a variable resistoa r like rheostat.

Answer:

(1) 1×10⁻⁴

Explanation:

From the question,

α = (ΔL/L)/(ΔT)............. Equation 1

Where α = linear expansivity of the metal plate, ΔL/L = Fractional change in Length, ΔT = Rise in temperature.

Given: ΔL/L = 1×10⁻⁴, ΔT = 10°C

Substitute these values into equation 1

α  = 1×10⁻⁴/10

α = 1×10⁻⁵ °C⁻¹ .

β = (ΔA/A)/ΔT................... Equation 2

Where β = Coefficient of Area expansivity, ΔA/A = Fractional change in area.

make ΔA/A the subject of the equation

ΔA/A = β×ΔT.......................... Equation 3

But,

β = 2α.......................... Equation 4

Substitute equation 4 into equation 3

ΔA/A = 2α×ΔT................ Equation 5

Given: ΔT = 5°C, α = 1×10⁻⁵ °C⁻¹

Substitute into equation 5

ΔA/A = ( 2)×(1×10⁻⁵)×(5)

ΔA/A  = 10×10⁻⁵

ΔA/A  = 1×10⁻⁴

Hence the right option is (1) 1×10⁻⁴

A parallel-plate capacitor has plates of area A. The plates are initially separated by a distance d, but this distance can be va
ohaa [14]

Answer:

d' = d /2

Explanation:

Given that

Distance = d

Voltage =V

We know that energy in capacitor given as

U=\dfrac{1}{2}CV^2

C=\dfrac{\varepsilon _oA}{d}

U=\dfrac{1}{2}\times \dfrac{\varepsilon _oA}{d}\times V^2

If energy become double U' = 2 U then d'

U'=\dfrac{1}{2}\times \dfrac{\varepsilon _oA}{d'}\times V^2

2U=\dfrac{1}{2}\times \dfrac{\varepsilon _oA}{d'}\times V^2

2\times \dfrac{1}{2}\times \dfrac{\varepsilon _oA}{d}\times V^2=\dfrac{1}{2}\times \dfrac{\varepsilon _oA}{d'}\times V^2

2 d ' = d

d' = d /2

So the distance between plates will be half on initial distance.
