                                 Force = (mass) x (acceleration)

If the full 15N is pointing parallel to the ground,
then

                                   15 N  =  (58 kg) x (acceleration).

Divide each side
by  58 kg:                   Acceleration = 15 N / 58 kg

                                                         = (15 kg-m/s²) / (58 kg)

                                                         = (15/58) (kg-m/kg-s²)

                                                         =  0.26 m/s² .

Force = mass*acceleration
15 = 58 * x
x = 15 / 58
x = 0.26m/s²

An elevator car has a mass of 750 kg, and its three passengers have a combined mass of 135 kg. If the elevator and its passenger
joja [24]

Answer:

The change in gravitational potential energy is -1.80x10⁵ J.

Explanation:

The change in gravitational potential energy is given by:

\Delta E_{p} = E_{p_{f}} - E_{p_{i}}

\Delta E_{p} = mgh_{f} - mgh_{i}

Where:

"i" is for final and "f" for final

m: is the mass

g: is the gravity = 9.81 m/s²

h: is the height

For the car and the passengers we have:

\Delta E_{p} = m_{T}g(h_{f} - h_{i}) = (750 kg + 135 kg)9.81 m/s^{2}(0 - 20.7 m) = -1.80 \cdot 10^{5} J      

The minus sign is because when the elevator car and the passengers are up they have a bigger gravitational potential energy than when they are in the ground.

Therefore, the change in gravitational potential energy is -1.80x10⁵ J.

I hope it helps you!

What is the frequency of microwaves of wavelength 3 cm?
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

10 GHz

Explanation:

Applying,

v = λf.................... Equation 1

Where v = speed of microwave, λ = wavelength, f = frequency.

make f the subject of the equation

f = v/λ................ Equation 2

Note: Microwave is an electromagnetic wave, and all electromagnetic wave have the same speed, which is 3×10⁸ m/s

From the question,

Given: λ = 3 cm = 0.03 m

Constant; v = 3×10⁸ m/s

Substitute these values into equation 2

f = 3×10⁸/(0.03)

f = 10¹⁰ Hz

f = (10¹⁰/10⁹) GHz

f = 10 GHz

How can understanding velocity help to prevent a mid-air collision
dsp73

Answer:

To maintain enough time to prevent a collision, a system operating in air traffic where aircraft speed does not

fall below 100 km/h (most medium-sized UAVs and GA aircraft) will need to be able to detect obstacles which

subtend an arc-width of as small as 0.125 mra
