Answer:

T = 3990 N

Explanation:

The free body diagram for the elevator consists of a tension force pointing up, and its weight pointing down. So the elevator's net force is:

F = T - 2940N

ad at the same time, using Newton's second law, we have that this net force should equal the elevator's mass (300 kg) times its acceleration (a):

T - 2940N = 300kg (3.5m/s^2)

then

T = 2940 N + 1050 N

T = 3990 N

True or False. Atmosphere, lithosphere, and hydrosphere function together to create environments for the biosphere.
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Biosphere refer to regions of the earth(sphere) that supports life. It is made up of biotic and abiotic components. Its abiotic components are non-living components that support life and  is made up of the lithosphere (the earth crust,mantle) , atmosphere(area of gases and air which is  held by gravitational force) and the hydrosphere(all water bodies which includes ocean, sea, lakes, rivers etc).

A ball is thrown upwards from the edge of a cliff. The horizontal velocity and vertical velocity are both 20m/s the distance fro
german

Answer:

20m

6.9s

Explanation:

The vertical velocity of the ball is 20m/s. We can calculate the kinetic energy which gets transferred to potential energy once it gets to the top.

E_k = E_p

0.5mv^2 = mgh

h = \frac{0.5v^2}{g}

we can subtitute v = 20m/s and g = 10m/s2

h = \frac{0.5*20^2}{10} = 20 m

So the ball could go 20m high from the child hand, or 120m fro the bottom of the cliff.

The time it takes for the ball to travels to the top is the time it takes for it to decelerate from 20m/s to 0m/s with gravitational deceleration g = 10m/s2

t = v / g = 20 / 10 = 2s

Then the ball will start accelerating down ward with a constant acceleration of g = 10m/s. In order to cover distance d of 120m from the top to the bottom of the cliff

d = \frac{gt_2^2}{2}

t^2 = \frac{2d}{g} = \frac{2*120}{10} = 24

t = \sqrt{24} = 4.9s

So the total time it takes is 4.9 + 2 = 6.9s

A 1-lb block and a 100-lb block are placed side by side at the top of a frictionless hill. Each is given a very light tap to beg
qwelly [4]

Answer:

(c). The two blocks end in a tie

Explanation:

the reason being the absence of any resistance offered to both of the blocks.

if the slope of the hill is for instance 60 deg.

then the acceleration in absence of any resistance is a= 9.81sin(60)

since the acceleration is same then both of the blocks will reach at the same instant
