An empty elevator has a mass of 722 kg. It moves between floors at a maximum speed of 6.00 m/s. The elevator is stopped on the 2

0th floor of the building when someone pushes the call button in the lobby (the first floor). Assuming that it takes 15.25 meters for the elevator to reach its maximum speed, and assuming constant acceleration, calculate the tension in the cable as the elevator car begins to descend (during the period of constant acceleration). Take the acceleration due to gravity to be 9.81 m/s2. Show your work.

Answer:

Explanation:

The lift is going down with acceleration

Initial speed u = 0

Final speed v = 6 m/s

distance s = 15.25 m

acceleration a = ?

v² = u² + 2 a s

6² = 0 + 2 x a x 15.25

a = 1.18 m /s²

Elevator is going down with acceleration  .

mg - T = ma where T is tension in the cable .

722 x 9.8 - T = 722 x 1.18

7075.6 - T = 851.96

T = 6223.64 N .

kykrilka [37]

Answer:

Conduction heat transfer is the transfer of <em>heat by means of molecular excitement within a material without bulk motion</em> of the matter. 

Explanation:

Conduction heat transfer in gases and liquids is due to the collisions and diffusion of the molecules during heir random motion.

Joaquin mows the lawn at his grandmother’s home during the summer months. Joaquin measured the
nordsb [41]
Velocity is define as how fast an object is moving, and in what direction, it is a vector quantity, meaning velocity has both magnitude and direction. Anything goes to the left is negative, and anything goes to the right is positive.

a. Direction from east to west, given distance 11.5 meters, and time of 7.10 s

V = displacement/time  V = -11.5/7.10 S  V = -1.62 m/s  (going left)

b. Joaquin reaches his original position. Displacement is now zero.

    Velocity of the lawnmower is equal to "zero" but if we calculate for the average speed of the lawn, you just have to add the distance covered and the time it take to go back at the original position or point of origin

A convex lens of focal length 35 cm produces a magnified image 2.5 times the size of the object. What is the object distance if
Zanzabum

Answer:

Image distance is -52.5 cm

Image is virtual and forms on the same side of the lens and upright image is formed.

Explanation:

u = Object distance

v = Image distance

f = Focal length = 35

m = Magnification = 2.5

m=-\frac{v}{u}\\\Rightarrow 2.5=-\frac{v}{u}\\\Rightarrow v=-2.5 u

Lens equation

\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{u}+\frac{1}{v}\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{35}=\frac{1}{u}+\frac{1}{-2.5u}\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{35}=\frac{3}{5u}\\\Rightarrow u=21\ cm

v=-2.5\times 21=-52.5\ cm

Image distance is -52.5 cm

Image is virtual and forms on the same side of the lens and upright image is formed.

Gold, which has a mass of 19.32 g for each cubic centimeter of volume, is the most ductile metal and can be pressed into a thin
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

area = 5733.33  cm²

length = 5.47 ×10^{7} cm

Explanation:

Given data

density = 19.32 g/cm³

mass = 33.16 g

thickness = 3.000 µm = 3 ×10^{-4} cm

radius r = 1.000 µm = 1 ×10^{-4} cm

to find out

area of the leaf and  length of the fiber

solution

we know volume formula that is

volume = mass / density

volume = 33.16 /  19.32

volume = 1.72 cm³

we know that volume = thickness × area

so area

area = volume / thickness

area = 1.72 / 3 ×10^{-4}

area = 5733.33  cm²

and

we know volume = πr²L

so L = volume /  πr²

length = 1.72 / π(1×10^{-4})²

length = 5.47 ×10^{7} cm
