Answer: The Second Law is also known as "The Law of Force and Acceleration." This relates to the observation that an object experiences an acceleration "a" when acted upon by a force "F" whereby these two are in linear relationship F = ma (with "m" the mass of the object)

Newton's second law of motion pertains to the behavior of objects for which all existing forces are not balanced. The second law states that the acceleration of an object is dependent upon two variables - the net force acting upon the object and the mass of the object.

An elevator has a mass of 1000 Kg. What force is needed to accelerate it upward at a rate of 2 m/s/s?
zubka84 [21]

The force needed to accelerate an elevator upward at a rate of 2 m / s^{2} is 2000 N or 2 kN.

<u>Explanation: </u>

As per Newton's second law of motion, an object's acceleration is directly proportional to the external unbalanced force acting on it and inversely proportional to the mass of the object.

As the object given here is an elevator with mass 1000 kg and the acceleration is given as 2 m / s^{2}, the force needed to accelerate it can be obtained by taking the product of mass and acceleration.

                  \text {Force}=\text {Mass} \times \text {Acceleration}

                  \text { Force }=1000 \times 2=2000 \mathrm{N}=2 \text { kilo Newon }

So 2000 N or 2 kN amount of force is needed to accelerate the elevator upward at a rate of 2 m / s^{2}.

[High Dive) above a pool of water. According to the announcer, the divers enter the water at a speed of 56 mi/h (25 m/s). (Air r
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

(a) The announcer's claim is incorrect because the divers enter at a speed of 20.4 and not 25 m/s as announced

(b)  it’s possible for a diver to enter the water with the velocity of 25 m/s if he has initial velocity of 14.4 m/s. The upward initial velocity can’t be physically attained

Explanation:

(a)

To find the final velocity V_{f} for an object traveling distance h taking the initial vertical component of velocity as V_{i} the kinematics equation is written as

V_{f}^{2}=V_{i}^{2}+2ah where a is acceleration

Substituting g for a where g is gravitational force value taken as 9.81

V_{f}^{2}=V_{i}^{2}+2gh

Since the initial velocity is zero, we can solve for final velocity by substituting figures, note that 70 ft is 21.3 m for h

V_{f}=\sqrt {(2gh)}= V_{f}=\sqrt {(2*9.81*21.3)}= 20.44275

Therefore, the divers enter with a speed of 20.4 m/s

The announcer's claim is incorrect because the divers enter at a speed of 20.4 and not 25 m/s as announced

(b)

The divers can enter water with a velocity of 25 m/s only if they have some initial velocity. Using the kinematic equation

V_{f}^{2}=V_{i}^{2}+2gh

Since we have final velocity of 25 m/s

V_{i}^{2}=2gh-V_{f}^{2}

V_{i}=\sqrt{(V_{f}^{2}-2gh)}

V_{i}=\sqrt{(25^{2}-2*9.81*21.3)}= 14.390761 m/s

Therefore, it’s possible for a diver to enter the water with the velocity of 25 m/5 if he has initial velocity of 14.4 m/s

In conclusion, the upward initial velocity can’t be physically attained
