A 2.00 kg block hangs from a spring balance calibrated in Newtons that is attached to the ceiling of an elevator.(a) What does t

tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

Part a)

$Reading = 2.00 kg$

Part b)

$Reading = 2.00 kg$

Part c)

$Reading = 4.04 kg$

Part d)

from t = 0 to t = 4.9 s

so the reading of the scale will be same as that of weight of the block

Then its speed will reduce to zero in next 3.2 s

from t = 4.9 to t = 8.1 s

The reading of the scale will be less than the actual mass

Explanation:

Part a)

When elevator is ascending with constant speed then we will have

$F_{net} = 0$

$T - mg = 0$

$T = mg$

So it will read same as that of the mass

$Reading = 2.00 kg$

Part b)

When elevator is decending with constant speed then we will have

$F_{net} = 0$

$T - mg = 0$

$T = mg$

So it will read same as that of the mass

$Reading = 2.00 kg$

Part c)

When elevator is ascending with constant speed 39 m/s and acceleration 10 m/s/s then we will have

$F_{net} = ma$

$T - mg = ma$

$T = mg + ma$

Reading is given as

$Reading = \frac{mg + ma}{g}$

$Reading = 2.00\frac{9.81 + 10}{9.81}$

$Reading = 4.04 kg$

Part d)

Here the speed of the elevator is constant initially

from t = 0 to t = 4.9 s

so the reading of the scale will be same as that of weight of the block

Then its speed will reduce to zero in next 3.2 s

from t = 4.9 to t = 8.1 s

The reading of the scale will be less than the actual mass

Boyle's Law states that when a sample of gas is compressed at a constant temperature, the pressure P and volume V satisfy the eq

gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

The volume is decreasing at 160 cm³/min

Explanation:

Given;

Boyle's law, PV = C

where;

P is pressure of the gas

V is volume of the gas

C is constant

Differentiate this equation using product rule:

$V\frac{dp}{dt} +P\frac{dv}{dt} = \frac{d(C)}{dt}$

Given;

$\frac{dP}{dt}$ (increasing pressure rate of the gas) = 40 kPa/min

V (volume of the gas) = 600 cm³

P (pressure of the gas) = 150 kPa

Substitute in these values in the differential equation above and calculate the rate at which the volume is decreasing ( $\frac{dv}{dt}$ );

(600 x 40) + (150 x $\frac{dv}{dt}$ ) = 0

$\frac{dv}{dt} = -\frac{(600*40)}{150} = -160 \ cm^3/min$

Therefore, the volume is decreasing at 160 cm³/min
