Answer:

1) The acceleration is in the SW direction.

2) It is not possible to make a conclusion regarding the direction of the velocity.

Explanation:

1)

  • According Newton's 2nd Law, the acceleration is directly proportional to the net force applied, and has the same direction than it.
  • Since the net force points in the SW direction, so does  the acceleration.

2)

  • By definition, acceleration is the rate of change of the velocity with respect to time.
  • Since acceleration is a vector, it can represent a change in  the magnitude of the velocity (if it speeds up or if it is slows down), along the same direction (NW or SW in this case), and/or a change in the direction, as in the circular movement case, in which acceleration and speed are perpendicular each other.
  • So, with the information that we have, we can't say in which direction the velocity points.

When more than one wave is in the same location at the same time, then there is _____ between the waves?
igor_vitrenko [27]
The sentence can be completed as follows:
"<span>When more than one wave is in the same location at the same time, then there is interference between the waves"

In fact, when there are two or more waves in the same location at the same time, their amplitude sum together. The two extreme possibilities are:
- costructive interference: the two waves arrive on phase at the same location (=their crests arrive at the same location at the same time). In this case, the amplitudes of the waves sum together and the resultant wave has greater amplitude.
- destructive interference: the two waves arrive out of phase at the same location. In this case, the amplitudes of the two waves cancel out, and the resultant wave has amplitude zero.</span>

A dripping water faucet steadily releases drops 1.0 s apart. As these drops fall, does the distance between them increase, decre
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

Distance between them increase

Explanation:

The position S of the water droplet can be determined  using equation of motion

S=ut+\frac{1}{2}  at^2

where u is the initial velocity which is zero here

t is time taken, a is acceleration due to gravity

the position of  first drop after time t is given by

S_{1}  =0 \times t+ \frac{1}{2} at^2=\frac{1}{2} at^2............(1)

the position of  next drop at same time is

S_{2}  =\frac{1}{2} a(t-1)^2 = \frac{1}{2} a(t^2+1-2t)............(2)

distance between them is S_{1} -S_{2}  is a(t-1)

from the above the difference will increase with the time

An elevator is being pulled up from the ground floor to the third floor by a cable. The cable is exerting 4500 newtons of force
Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

The gravitational force on the elevator = 4500N

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The force applied by the elevator, F  = 4500 N

The acceleration of the elevator = Not accelerating

From Newton's third law of motion, the action of the cable force is equal to the reaction of the gravitational force on the elevator which is the weight, W and motion of the elevator as follows;

F = W + Mass of elevator × Acceleration of elevator

∴ F = W + Mass of elevator × 0 = W

F = 4500 N = W

The net force on the elevator is F - W = 0

The gravitational force on the elevator = W = 4500N.
