As part of a physics experiment, you carry a bathroom scale calibrated in newtons onto an elevator and stand on it. At rest, you

check the scale and it reads 588 N. Then the elevator starts accelerating upward at 2.0 m/s2 and you check the reading again. Now what does the scale show

Answer: 708 N

Explanation:

Given

At rest, Elevator reads 588 N

When it starts moving upward at 2\ m/s^2, apparent weight changes

i.e. weight can be given by

\Rightarrow W'=m(g+a)\\\Rightarrow W'=mg+mg\cdot \dfrac{a}{g}\\\\\Rightarrow W'=W\left(1+\dfrac{a}{g}\right)\\\\\Rightarrow W'=588\left(1+\dfrac{2}{9.8}\right)\\\\\Rightarrow W'=707.99\approx 708\ N

The apparent weight is 708 N

A particle has a charge of -4.25 nC.
SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

-611.32 N/C

0.43723 m

Explanation:

k = Coulomb constant = 8.99\times 10^{9}\ Nm^2/C^2

q = Charge = -4.25 nC

r = Distance from particle = 0.25 m

Electric field is given by

E=\dfrac{kq}{r^2}\\\Rightarrow E=\dfrac{8.99\times 10^9\times -4.25\times 10^{-9}}{0.25^2}\\\Rightarrow E=-611.32\ N/C

The magnitude is 611.32 N/C

The electric field will point straight down as the sign is negative towards the particle.

E=\dfrac{kq}{r^2}\\\Rightarrow r=\sqrt{\dfrac{kq}{E}}\\\Rightarrow r=\sqrt{\dfrac{8.99\times 10^9\times 4.25\times 10^{-9}}{13}}\\\Rightarrow r=1.71436\ m

The distance from the electric field is 1.71436 m

If a receiver is overly selective:
VMariaS [17]

Answer:

C) only part of the bandwidth of the AM signal is amplified, causing some of the sideband information to be lost and distortion results.

Explanation:

Selectivity is the ability of a receiver to respond only to a specific signal on a wanted frequency and reject other signals nearby in frequency.

If a receiver is overly selective, only part of the bandwidth of the AM signal is amplified, causing some of the sideband information to be lost and distortion results. Whereas, if a receiver is underselective, the receiver can pick different signals on different frequencies at the same time.
