Answer:

208.08 pounds

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of a man, m = 75.5 kg

Starting from rest, the elevator ascends, attaining its maximum speed of 1.65 m/s in 0.675 s.

We need to find the value of spring scale during these 0.675 s.

As the elevator ascends, net force will be given by :

F = mg + ma

a can be calculated as follows :

a=\dfrac{1.65-0}{0.675}\\\\a=2.45\ m/s^2

So,

F = 75.5[(9.81) + (2.45)]

F = 925.63  N

We know that,

1 N = 0.224 Pounds

It means, 925.63  N = 208.08 pounds

So, the spring scale will register 208.08 pounds.

The magnitude of the voltage induced in a conductor moving through a stationary magnetic field depends on the _______ and the __
Virty [35]

The correct answer is: Option (D) length, speed

Explanation:

According to Faraday's Law of Induction:

ξ = Blv

Where,

ξ = Emf Induced

B = Magnetic Induction

l = Length of the conductor

v = Speed of the conductor.

As you can see that ξ (Emf/voltage induction) is directly proportional to the length and the speed of the conductor. Therefore, the correct answer will be Option (D) Length, Speed

On a cold winters da,y,If you left a drink setting outside,it could freeze.Explain why in a complete sentence
sertanlavr [38]
Hello!

On a cold winters day, if you left a drink setting outside, it could freeze because the heat (related to the kinetic energy) of the atoms in the drink will be transferred to the environment to achieve energy equilibrium. 

Heat transfer occurs by various mechanisms, flowing from the hottest body to the coldest, that's why the heat goes from the drink, which has a higher temperature (and kinetic energy) to the environment, which has a lower temperature. This is described by the second law of thermodynamics

What is the magnetic force on a proton that is moving at 2.5 107 m/s to the left through a magnetic field that is 3.4 T and poin
evablogger [386]

Answer: C. 1.4 10-11 N up

Explanation:

The magnetic force, F on a charge q moving with velocity v in a magnetic field B at an angle θ is given by:

F = q v B sin θ

Charge of proton, q = 1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹ C

Strength of magnetic field, B = 3.4 T pointing outwards

velocity of the proton, v = 2.5 × 10⁷ m/s towards left

Magnetic force is given by:

F =  1.6 × 10⁻¹⁹ C× 2.5 × 10⁷ m/s ×3.4 T× sin 90 = 13.6 × 10⁻¹² N = 1.4 × 10⁻¹¹ N up

The direction of the force is given by Lorentz Right hand rule. The fingers point magnetic field, the thumb points towards velocity, then the force on the proton is given by the direction perpendicular to the palm.  

The magnetic field acts outwards with velocity of the proton towards left. The force would act perpendicular to the two -upwards.
