.You have always been impressed by the speed of the elevators in your apartment building. You wonder about the maximum accelerat

ion for these elevators during normal operation, so you decide to measure it by using your bathroom scale. While the elevator is at rest on the ground floor,you get in, put down your scale, and stand on it. The scale reads 50 kg. You continue standing on the scale when the elevator goes up, carefully watching the reading. During the trip to the 10th floor, the greatest scale reading was

Answer:

5.51 m/s^2

Explanation:

Initial scale reading = 50 kg  

assume the greatest scale reading = 78.09 kg

<u>Determine the maximum acceleration for these elevators</u>

At rest the weight is = 50 kg

Weight ( F ) = mg = 50 * 9.81 = 490.5 N<u> </u>

<u> </u>At the 10th floor weight = 78.09 kg

Weight at 10th floor ( F ) = 78.09 * 9.81 = 766.11 N

F = change in weight

Change in weight( F ) = ma = 766.11 - 490.5 (we will take the mass as the starting mass as that mass is calculated when the body is at rest)

50 * a = 275.61

Hence the maximum acceleration ( a ) = 275.61 / 50 = 5.51 m/s^2

How much heat is lost by 2.0 grams of water if the temperature drops from 31 °C to 29 °C? The specific heat of water is 4.184 J/
Elanso [62]

Given :

Mass of water, m = 2 grams.

The temperature of water drops from 31 °C to 29 °C .

The specific heat of water is 4.184 J/(g • °C).

To Find :

Amount of heat lost in this process.

Solution :

We know, heat lost is given by :

Heat\ lost,H = ms( T_f - T_i)\\\\H = 2\times 4.184 \times ( 31 - 29 )\ J\\\\H = 16.736\ J

Therefore, amount of heat lost in this process is 16.736 J.

Which can lead to an inaccurate tympanic temperature reading?
lozanna [386]

Significant ear drainage or a scarred tympanic membrane can lead to inaccurate results on a tympanic temperature reading.

<h3>Why inaccurate tympanic temperature reading?</h3>

Significant ear drainage or a scarred tympanic membrane can lead to inaccurate results on a tympanic temperature reading.

Although an ear infection or the presence of an ear infection will not significantly affect a tympanic thermometer reading.

If the client has been sleeping on one side, take the temperature on the other side as heat may be increased on the side against the pillow.

Recent consumption of a cold beverage will not affect tympanic temperature.
