You know your mass is 62 kg but when you stand on a bathroom scale in an elevator it says your mass is 77 kg what is the acceler

lbvjy [14]

In a stationary situation, the weight of person is
$W=mg=(62 kg)(9.81 m/s^2) = 608.2 N$
This is the weight "felt" by the scale, which is basically the normal reaction applied by the scale on the person, and which uses the value of g (9.81) as reference to convert the weight (602.8 N) into a mass (62 kg).

When the person is in the elevator, the scale says 77 kg. The scale is still using the same value of conversion (9.81), so the apparent weight "felt" by the scale is
$W' = m'g=(77 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)=755.4 N$
This is the normal reaction applied by the scale on the person, and which is directed upward. Besides this force, there is still the weight W of the person, acting downward. So, if we use Newton's second law:
$\sum F = ma$
$W-W'=ma$
where a is the acceleration of the elevator. If we solve for a, we find
$a= \frac{W-W'}{m}= \frac{608.2N-755.4N}{62 kg}=-2.37 m/s^2$
The negative sign means the acceleration is in the opposite direction of g (which we take positive), so it means the elevator is going upward.

UkoKoshka [18]

Hi there! :)

$\large\boxed{v_{f} = 18 m/s}$

Use the following kinematic equation to solve for the final velocity:

$v_{f} = v_{i} + at$

In this instance, the runner started from rest, so the initial velocity is 0 m/s. We can rewrite the equation as:

$v_{f} = at$

Plug in the given acceleration and time:

$v_{f} = 4.5 * 4 = 18 m/s$

When a hot and cold object are placed in contact, the hot one loses energy. Does this violate energy conservation? Why or why no

blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

This does not violate the conservation of energy.

Explanation:

This does not violate the conservation of energy because the hot body gives energy in the form of heat to the colder body, this second absorbs energy. This will be the case until both bodies reach the same temperature, reaching thermal equilibrium and reducing the transfer of thermal energy. In this way the energy was only transferred from one body to another but the total energy of the system (body 1 plus body 2) will be the same as in the beginning, respecting the principle of conservation of energy or also called the first principle of thermodynamics .

The part of physics that studies these processes is in turn called heat transfer or heat transfer or thermal transfer. Heat transfer occurs whenever there is a thermal gradient or when two systems with different temperatures come into contact. The process persists until thermal equilibrium is reached, that is, until temperatures are equalized. When there is a temperature difference between two objects or regions close enough, the heat transfer cannot be stopped, it can only be slowed down.
