Answer:

11,520N

Explanation

According to Newtons second law

Net force = mass * acceleration

Given

Mass = 2560kg

acceleration = 4.5m/s^2

Substitute the given values into the formula

F = 2560 * 4.5

F = 11,520N

Hence the net force on the elevator is 11,520N

Well, you gave us the formula to calculate power from work and time,
but you didn't give us the formula for work.  We have to know that.

             Work = (force) x (distance)

The work to raise Sara to the top of the hill is

               Work = (300 N) x (15 meters)

                         =   4,500 newton-meters  =  4,500 joules .

Now we're ready to use the formula that you gave us.  (Thank you.)

                Power = (work) / (time)

                            = (4,500 joules) / (10 seconds)

                            450 joules/second  =  450 watts.

When a cannon fires a cannonball, the cannon will recoil backward because the:
gulaghasi [49]

C) total linear momentum of the ball and cannon is conserved.

Basically it happens that in the beginning before there is a momentum acting on the two bodies, these are a unique system. Here the total momentum of the System is 0. However, when the positive momentum of the cannonball is added, the system will be immediately affected by a negative momentum which will pull back the cannon. Could this be extrapolated as a condition of Newton's third law.

If pressure is increased from 200 kPa to 300 kPa, and the original volume of gas was 1.5 L, what is the new volume? Assume the t
Oxana [17]

Answer:

The answer to your question is:      V2 = 1 l

Explanation:

Data

P1 = 200 kPa

P2 = 300 kPa

V1 = 1.5 l

V2 = ?

Formula

                          P1V1 = P2V2

                          V2 = (P1V1) / P2

                          V2 = (200 x 1.5) / 300

                          V2 = 1 l

what is the difference in the charges on a balloon rubbed in your hair and a glass  rod rubbed with silk? why?
lbvjy [14]
The balloon steals electrons from your hair, leaving the hair positively charged, and the balloon negatively charged. It causes the hair to be apart from each other, because they have the same charge. Glass has a weaker hold on electrons, and silk absorbs the lost electrons.
