Eric has a mass of 80 kgkg. He is standing on a scale in an elevator that is accelerating downward at 1.7 m/s2m/s2. What is the

kolezko [41]

Answer:

The answer will be 936 N.

Explanation:

Given that

m = 80 kg

Acceleration of the elevator , a= 1.7 m/s² ( upward)

The gravity force on the mass = m g

The reading on the scale = F N

Now by applying the Newton's second law

F - m g = ma

F= m g + m a

F= m ( g +a )

F= 80 ( 10 + 1.7 ) N ( take g= 10 m/s²)

F=80 x 11.7 N

F= 936 N

Therefore the reading on the scale will be 936 N.

The answer will be 936 N.

Suppose that the process were repeated, except that in step 3 a neutral acrylic rod instead of a finger is used to touch the ele

Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

b) True Only if the finger is isolated from ground

c) True. The total charge does not change since the system is isolated

Explanation:

When the electroscope is touched with an acrylic rod, some charges are transferred from the electroscope to the rod, until the charge in both is equal.

In the case it know when the electroscope is touched with a finger, two things can happen.

- The body is isolated from the ground, the efective charge is redistributed between the two bodies. Case similar to insulating rod

- The body is connected to ground, the charge is transferred to the finger and from here to the ground until the total charge is transferred and the Earth and the final charge of the electroscope is zero.

Let's review the final statements

a) False, when part of the load is touched, it passes to the rod, so when it separates it does not return to the initial load

b) True Only if the finger is isolated from ground

c) True. The total load does not change since the system is isolated

d) False. The value of the load changes =, but its sign does not

If an object is thrown in an upward direction from the top of a building 160 ft high at an initial speed of 30 mi/h, what is

expeople1 [14]

Answer:

We can use 2 g H = v2^2 - v1^2 or

v2^2 = 2 g H + v1^2

Since 88 ft/sec = 60mph we have 30 mph = 44 ft/sec

The object will return with the same speed that it had initially so the object

starts out with a downward speed of 44 ft/sec

Then v2^2 = 2 * 32 ft/sec^2 * 160 ft + 44 (ft/sec)^2

v2^2 = (2 * 32 * 160 + 44^2) ft^2 / sec^2 = 12180 ft^2/sec^2

v2 = 110 ft/sec

Suppose two children push horizontally, but in exactly opposite directions, on a third child in a wagon. The first child exerts

Nata [24]

(a) The system of interest if the acceleration of the child in the wagon is to be calculated are the wagon and the children outside the wagon.

(b) The acceleration of the child-wagon system is 0.33 m/s².

(c) Acceleration of the child-wagon system is zero when the frictional force is 21 N.

<h3>Net force on the third child</h3>

Apply Newton's second law of motion;

∑F = ma

where;

∑F is net force
m is mass of the third child
a is acceleration of the third child

∑F = 96 N - 75 N - 12 N = 9 N

Thus, the system of interest if the acceleration of the child in the wagon is to be calculated are;

the wagon
the children outside the wagon

<h3>Free body diagram</h3>

→ → Ф ←

1st child friction wagon 2nd child

<h3>Acceleration of the child and wagon system</h3>

a = ∑F/m

a = 9 N / 27 kg

a = 0.33 m/s²

<h3>When the frictional force is 21 N</h3>

∑F = 96 N - 75 N - 21 N = 0 N

a = ∑F/m

a = 0/27 kg

a = 0 m/s²

Name TWO WEAKNESSES of the model pictured below

Nikolay [14]

Answer:

Here are a few:

1) The orbital radius of these planets is ridiculously small an in no way representative of their actual radii.

2) The planets will only line up like that once every 5200 years, making this very unrepresentative of their usual relations - although this does make their order in distance from the sun.

3) The nebulae, comet, lens flare, and other junk in the background is incorrect.

4) If this is meant as a representation of the planets, then Pluto should not be there as it is now considered a planetoid.

5) The planets are incorrectly scaled both to each other and to the sun.
