for 1.50 s. Calculate the tension in the cable supporting the elevator. (b) The elevator continues upward at constant velocity for 8.50 s. What is the tension in the cable during this time? (c) The elevator decelerates at a rate of 0.600m/s2 for 3.00 s. What is the tension in the cable during deceleration? (d) How high has the elevator moved above its original starting point, and what is its final velocity?

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that mass of an elevator filled with passengers = $1.70\times 10^3 Kg$

a.a= $1.2 m/s^2$

t=1.50 s

Initial velocity=0

We have to calculate the tension in the cable supporting the elevator.

According to newton's second law,the net force is given by

$F_net=\sum F=ma$

$F-mg=ma$

Substitute the values then we get

$F=ma+mg=m(a+g)=1.7\times 10^3(1.2+9.8)=1.87\times 10^4 N$

Hence, the tension in the cable supporting the elevator= $1.87\times 10^4 N$

b.t=8.5 s

We have to find the tension in the table during this time.

Fnet=0

F=W= $1.7\times 10^3\times 9.8=1.67\times 10^4 N$

Hence, the tension in the cable during this time = $1.67\times 10^4 N$

c. Deceleration= $0.6 m/s^2$

t=3 s

We have to find the tension in the cable during deceleration.

$F-mg=-ma$

$F=mg-ma=m(g-a)$

$F=1.7\times 10^3(9.8-0.6)=1.56\times 10^4 N$

Hence, the tension in the cable during deceleration= $1.56\times 10^4 N$ .

d.We have to find that the height of elevator moved above its original staring point .

We have to find the final velocity.

$y_1=ut_1+\frac{1}{2}a_1t_1^2$

$y_1=0(1.50+\frac{1}{2}(1.2)(1.5)=1.35 m$

Final velocity

$v_1=a_1t_1$

$v_1=(1.2)(1.5)=1.8 m/s$

$y_2=v_1t_1=(1.8)(8.5)=15.3 m$

The third distance $y_3$ is up in the direction because the elevator decelerate upward which mean the distance is positive and is given by

$y_3=(1.8)(3)-\frac{1}{2}(0.6)(3)^2=2.7 m$

The total distance moved by elevator from its original position

$d=1.35+1.8+2.7=19.35 m$

Final velocity=0

laila [671]

Answer:

$W_n_e_t=7.648512 \approx 7.6J$

$K.E=0.8J$

$v=0.7844645406 \approx 0.78m/s$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

Mass of pitcher $M= 2.6kg$

Force on pitcher $f=8.8N$

Distance traveled $48cm=>0.48m$

Coefficient of friction $\mu=0.28$

a)Generally frictional force is mathematically given by

$F=\mu N$

$F=0.28*2.6*9.8$

$F=7.1344N$

Generally work done on the pitcher is mathematically given as

$W_n_e_t=W_f+W_F$

$W_f=8.8*0.48=>4.224N\\W_F=7.1344*0.48=>3.424512N$

$W_n_e_t=4.224-3.424512$

$W_n_e_t=0.799488\approx 0.8J$

b)Generally K.E can be given mathematically as

$K.E= W_n_e_t$

Therefore

$K.E=0.8J$

c)Generally the equation for kinetic energy is mathematically represented by

$K.E=1/2mv^2$

$0.8=1/2mv^2$

Velocity as subject

$v=\sqrt{\frac{K.E*2}{m} }$

$v=\sqrt{\frac{0.8*2}{2.6} }$

$v=0.7844645406 \approx 0.78m/s$

At the surface, atmospheric pressure is 1.013 × 10^5 Pa. People can normally snorkel down to a depth of roughly one meter. What

natulia [17]

Answer:

1.01 × 10⁵ Pa

Explanation:

At the surface, atmospheric pressure is 1.013 × 10⁵ Pa.

We need to find the total pressure on the air in the lungs of a person to a depth of 1 meter.

Pressure at a depth is given by :

$P=\rho gh$

Where

$\rho$ is the density of air, $\rho=1.225\ kg/m^3$

So,

$P=1.225\times 9.8\times 1\\\\=12\ Pa$

Total pressure, P = Atmospheric pressure + 12 Pa

= 1.013 × 10⁵ Pa + 12 Pa

= 1.01 × 10⁵ Pa

Hence, the total pressure is 1.01 × 10⁵ Pa.

A guitarist finds that the pitch of one of her strings is slightly flat—the frequency is a bit too low. Should she increase or d

Yuri [45]

Answer:

The guitarist should increase the tension of the string.

Explanation:

The frequency of a vibrating string is determined by fn=(n/(2L))√T/μ. So if the tension in the string increased, the rate at which it vibrates (the frequency) will also increase.

Therefore it is advisable that she increase the tension of the string.

Consider a variety of colors of visible light (say 400 nm to 700 nm) falling onto a pair of slits.

babymother [125]

Answer:

Explanation:

The relationship between angle and wavelength for maxima and minima in Young's double slit experiment is given by

For constructive interference

$d\sin \theta =m\lambda$

For Destructive interference

$d\sin \theta =(m+\frac{1}{2})\lambda$

where $\lambda =wavelength$

$d=slit\ width$

m=order of maxima and minima

for second order maxima i.e. $m=2$

For smallest separation taking $\lambda =400 nm, \theta =90^{\circ}$

$d\sin 90=2\times 400\times 10^{-9}$

$d=0.8\times 10^{-6}$

$d=0.8\mu m$
