Given that,

Weight of man, W= 650 N

Upward force by elevator, F= 620 N

a = ?

Since,

W = mg

m= W/g =650/9.81

m = 66.25 kg

Since,

F = ma

a = F/m

a = 620/66.25

a = 9.35 m/s²

Acceleration will be 9.35 m/s².

Since the force is in upward direction, it will accelerate the body in upward direction.

Answer:Man's acceleration is 0.452 \frac{m}{s^{2}} in downward direction

Explanation:

<em>Weight of man, W= 650 N</em>

<em>Normal force exerted by floor of elevator , N= 620 N</em>

<em>Since weight , W = mg</em>

<em>mass m= \frac{W}{g}=\frac{650}{9.8}kg</em>

<em>Using Newtons 2nd law</em>

<em>W-N= ma     where a= acceleration of man in the downward direction</em>

=> 650-620=\frac{650}{9.8}kg\times a

=> a= 0.452 \frac{m}{s^{2}} <em>in downward direction </em>

Explain how a transistor behaves as a switch
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

With a zero signal applied to the Base of the transistor it turns “OFF” acting like an open switch and zero collector current flows. With a positive signal applied to the Base of the transistor it turns “ON” acting like a closed switch and maximum circuit current flows through the device.

Design a tension member and slip-critical splice to carry a factored load of 500 kips. Please use a wide-flange section for the
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

Kindly check the explanation section.

Explanation:

For the design we are asked for in this question/problem there is the need for us to calculate or determine the strength in fracture and that of the yield. Also, we need to calculate for the block shear strength.

From the question, we have that the factored load = 500kips. Also, note that the tension splice must not slip.

Also, the shear force are resisted by friction, that is to say shear resistance = 1.13 × Tb × Ns.

Assuming our db = 3/4 inches, then the slip critical resistance to shear service load = 18ksi(refer to AISC manual for the table).

If db = 7/8 inches, then the shear force resistance for n bolt = 10.2kips, n > 49.6.

The yielding strength = 0.9 × Aj × Fhb= 736 kips > 500

The fracture strength = .75 × Ah × Fhb = 309 kips.

The bearing strength of 7/8 inches bolt at the edge hole and other holes = 46 kips and 102 kips.

A potential difference of 3.00 nV is set up across a 2.00 cm length of copper wire that has a radius of 2.00 mm. How much charge
Anvisha [2.4K]

The number of charge drifts are 3.35 X 10⁻⁷C

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given:

Potential difference, V = 3 nV = 3 X 10⁻⁹m

Length of wire, L = 2 cm = 0.02 m

Radius of the wire, r = 2 mm = 2 X 10⁻³m

Cross section, 3 ms

charge drifts, q = ?

We know,

the charge drifts through the copper wire is given by

q = iΔt

where Δt = 3 X 10⁻³s

and i = \frac{V}{R}

where R is the resistance

R = \frac{pL}{r^{2} \pi }

ρ is the resistivity of the copper wire = 1.69 X 10⁻⁸Ωm

So, i = \frac{\pi(r)^{2}V  }{pL}

q = \frac{\pi(r^{2} )Vt }{pL}

Substituting the values,

q = 3.14 X (0.02)² X 3 X 10⁻⁹ X 3 X 10⁻³ / 1.69 X 10⁻⁸ X 0.02

q = 3.35 X 10⁻⁷C

Therefore, the number of charge drifts are 3.35 X 10⁻⁷C
