Answer:

If the person is to remain the floor the reaction force will be equal to the normal force exerted by the floor.

F(normal) - F(reaction) = 0

That means the person is not moving with respect to the elevator.

Expanding the applied forces we have:

Fw - Fn = 720 - 710 = 10 N   where the positive direction is chosen as down

Fw is the weight of the person and Fn the force exerted on the person by the elevator,

The acceleration of the person the becomes F = m a = m * 10 N and will be downward agreeing with our choice of coordinate axes.

Why electrons flow in a wire when connected to a battery?
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

The metal atoms in the wire can't move, but their outer electrons can. The force pushes those electrons and they move to further parts of the wire, trying to reach the other end. As the electrons move away, new electrons flow into the wire through the battery to take their place.

Will Mark Brainliest if Correct PLZ!!!!! A bullet is shot at some angle above the horizontal at an initial velocity of 87m/s on
qaws [65]

Answer:

≅50°

Explanation:

We have a bullet flying through the air with only gravity pulling it down, so let's use one of our kinematic equations:

Δx=V₀t+at²/2

And since we're using Δx, V₀ should really be the initial velocity in the x-direction. So:

Δx=(V₀cosθ)t+at²/2

Now luckily we are given everything we need to solve (or you found the info before posting here):

  • Δx=760 m
  • V₀=87 m/s
  • t=13.6 s
  • a=g=-9.8 m/s²; however, at 760 m, the acceleration of the bullet is 0 because it has already hit the ground at this point!

With that we can plug the values in to get:

760=(87)(cos\theta )(13.6)+\frac{(0)(13.6^{2}) }{2}

760=(1183.2)(cos\theta)

cos\theta=\frac{760}{1183.2}

\theta=cos^{-1}(\frac{760}{1183.2})\approx50^{o}

Does air resistance affect the motion of a falling object differently when the initial velocity of the object is greater?
DIA [1.3K]
Yes. Even greater. Air resistance or drag becomes harder the faster an object goes. This is why when cars reach their max speed they don't accelerate as fast, because they are pushing harder against the wind. If I take a tennis ball and shoot it down a bottomless pit, a 400 kph, the drag will slow the ball down till it reaches terminal velocity.
