A motor must lift a 1500-kg elevator cab. The cab's maximum occupant capacity is 400 kg, and its constant "cruising" speed is 1.
natka813 [3]

Answer:

12900 W

24200 W

Explanation:

Given:

v₀ = 0 m/s

v = 1.3 m/s

t = 2.0 s

Find: a and Δx

v = at + v₀

(1.3 m/s) = a (2.0 s) + (0 m/s)

a = 0.65 m/s²

Δx = ½ (v + v₀) t

Δx = ½ (1.3 m/s + 0 m/s) (2.0 s)

Δx = 1.3 m

While accelerating:

Newton's second law:

∑F = ma

F − mg = ma

F = m (g + a)

F = (1500 kg + 400 kg) (9.8 m/s² + 0.65 m/s²)

F = 19855 N

Power = work / time

P = W / t

P = Fd / t

P = (19855 N) (1.3 m) / (2.0 s)

P ≈ 12900 W

At constant speed:

Newton's second law:

∑F = ma

F − mg = 0

F = mg

F = (1500 kg + 400 kg) (9.8 m/s²)

F = 18620 N

Power = work / time

P = W / t

P = Fd / t

P = Fv

P = (18620 N) (1.3 m/s)

P ≈ 24200 W

A beach ball with a volume of 5,000 cm3 is pushed underwater. What is the magnitude of the buoyant force pushing upwards? The de
Kobotan [32]
<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is:

The buoyant force is equal to 49N.

<h2>Why?</h2>

The buoyant force is the force that pushes upwards and object when it's submerged in water, this force is always trying to move the object to the surface of the liquid or water.  We must consider that the volume of water or liquid displaced is equal to the volume of the submerged object.

We can calculate the buoyant force using the following formula:

F_{B}=Density*VolumeDisplaced*GravityAcceleration

Where,

Density is the density of the water or liquid.

Volume displaced is equal to the volume of the submerged object.

Gravity acceleration is the acceleration due to gravity.

So, from the statement we know that:

VolumeDisplaced=BeachBallVolume=5000cm^{3}\\\\Density=1\frac{gram}{cm^{3} }=\frac{0.001kg}{cm^{3} }\\\\g=9.8\frac{m}{s^{2} }

Now, substituting and calculating we have:

F_{B}=Density*VolumeDisplaced*GravityAcceleration

F_{B}=0.001\frac{kg}{cm^{3}*} *5000cm^{3}*9.8\frac{m}{s^{2} }

F_{B}=0.001\frac{kg}{cm^{3}*} *5000cm^{3}*9.8\frac{m}{s^{2} }

F_{B}=49\frac{Kg.m}{s^{2}}=49N

Hence, we have that the correct answer is:

The buoyant force is equal to 49N.

Have a nice day!

Is gravitational pull strengthened by distance?
topjm [15]

I'm not sure but I think that if objects are closer (less distant), than the gravitational pull is stronger. I'm sorry if I couldn't really help I remember learning about this kind of.
