Answer:

acceleration

Explanation:

acceleration determines whether you will be adding to or subtracting from the velocity. while negative acceleration means you will subtract from the current value of the velocity and a positive acceleration means you will add

ANSWER:

✔ Positive acceleration represents an object speeding up; negative acceleration represents an object slowing down.

NOTE: Negative acceleration is also called as Retar-dation.

A cyclist has a momentum of 771.9 kg m/s. if her mass is 93 kg what is the speed of the cyclist?
MrMuchimi
Take 771.9 Kg M/s  because that's how fast she is moving and divide it by 93 kg because that is her force pushing down

771.9/93= 8.3

Answer: A. 8.3 M/s

P.s I changed my answer on the last question you asked so change that.

The primary coil of an ideal transformer has 100 turns and its secondary coil has 400 turns. if the ac voltage applied to the pr
Nana76 [90]

The formula used in calculations relating to transformers is:

<span>Secondary voltage (Vs)/ Primary voItage (VP) = Secondary turns (nS)/ Primary turns (nP)</span>

 

Substituting the given values to find for Vs,

Vs / 120 V = 400 turns / 100 turns

<span>Vs = 480 V</span>

You've always wondered about the acceleration of the elevators in the 101-story-tall Empire State Building. One day, while visit
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

(i) The maximum acceleration upward is 2.02 m/s².

(ii) The maximum acceleration downward is 1.39 m/s².

Explanation:

Let a be the maximum acceleration of the elevator.

The mass of the person at ground is 150 lb. We have to convert the mass into kg,

1 lb = 0.453592 kg

150 lb = 68 kg

170 lb = 77 kg

120 lb = 54 kg

(i) The person experience a force due to Earth's gravity in the downwards direction. The magnitude of this force is:

F₁ = mg = 68 x 9.8 = 666.4 N

The weight of the person decreases as the elevator is moving upwards. So, the force experienced by the person in this case due to gravity is:

F₂ = 54 x 9.8 = 529.2 N

Applying Newton's force equation;

(F₁ - F₂) = ma

(666.4 - 529.2) = 68 x a

a = 2.02 m/s²

(ii) The weight of the person increases as the elevator is moving downwards. So, the force experienced by the person in this case due to gravity is:

F₂ = 77 x 9.8 = 754.6 N

Applying Newton's force equation;

(F₁ - F₂) = ma

(666.4 - 754.6) = 68 x a

a = -1.30 m/s²
