Suppose you are standing on a scale in an elevator that is accelerating upward. Will the scale read your weight as larger for sm

aller than the weight it reads when you are stationary?

Answer:

following are the solution to this question:

Explanation:

When I stand at such a scale in an elevated that's already rising upwards, its scale would appear to also be 0 because of free fall and would often reveal that weight whenever the lift is stable.  

In this, the free fall is also known as the object, that is influenced exclusively by gravity, and an object operating only through the influence of gravity is said to be in a free-fall state.

If your chunk of gold weighed 1 N in which case would you have the largest mass of gold?
kotykmax [81]
Ah ha !  Very interesting question.
Thought-provoking, even.

You have something that weighs 1 Newton, and you want to know 
the situation in which the object would have the greatest mass.

          Weight = (mass) x (local gravity)

          Mass  =  (weight) / (local gravity)

          Mass  =  (1 Newton) / (local gravity)

"Local gravity" is the denominator of the fraction, so the fraction
has its greatest value when 'local gravity' is smallest.  This is the
clue that gives it away.

If somebody offers you 1 chunk of gold that weighs 1 Newton,
you say to him:

   "Fine !  Great !  Golly gee, that's sure generous of you.  
But before you start weighing the chunk to give me, I want you
to take your gold and your scale to Pluto, and weigh my chunk
there.   And if you don't mind, be quick about it."

The local acceleration of gravity on Pluto is  0.62 m/s² ,
but on Earth, it's 9.81 m/s.

So if he weighs 1 Newton of gold for you on Pluto, its mass will be
1.613 kilograms, and it'll weigh 15.82 Newtons here on Earth. 

That's almost 3.6 pounds of gold, worth over $57,000 !


It would be even better if you could convince him to weigh it on
Halley's Comet, or on any asteroid.  Wherever he's willing to go
that has the smallest gravity.  That's the place where the largest
mass weighs 1 Newton.

lys-0071 [83]

Answer: the maximum heigth of the stadium at ist back wall is 151.32 ft

Explanation:

1. use the position (x) equation in parobolic movement to find the time (t)

565 ft = [frac{176 ft}{1 s\\}[/tex] * cos (35°)  * t

t= 3.92 s

2. use the position (y) equation in parabolic movement to find de maximun heigth  the ball reaches at 565 ft from the home plate.

y= [[frac{176 ft}{1 s\\}[/tex] * sen (35°) * 3.92 s] - \frac{32.2 ft/s^{2} *3.92 s^{2}  }{2}

y= 148.32 ft

3. finally add the 3 ft that exist between the home plate and the ball

148.32 ft + 3 ft = 151.32

An airplane with a mass of 5,000 kg needs to accelerate 5 m/s2 to take off before it reaches the end of the runway. How much for
Anastasy [175]

Answer:

<h2>25000 N</h2>

Explanation:

The force acting on an object given it's mass and acceleration can be found by using the formula

force = mass × acceleration

From the question we have

force = 5000 × 5

We have the final answer as

<h3>25000 N</h3>

Hope this helps you
