An elevator is being pulled up from the ground floor to the third floor by a cable. The cable is exerting 4500 newtons of force

on the elevator. According to Newton's law of action-reaction, what is the gravitational force on the elevator, in newtons, if the elevator is NOT accelerating?

Answer:

The gravitational force on the elevator = 4500N

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The force applied by the elevator, F  = 4500 N

The acceleration of the elevator = Not accelerating

From Newton's third law of motion, the action of the cable force is equal to the reaction of the gravitational force on the elevator which is the weight, W and motion of the elevator as follows;

F = W + Mass of elevator × Acceleration of elevator

∴ F = W + Mass of elevator × 0 = W

F = 4500 N = W

The net force on the elevator is F - W = 0

The gravitational force on the elevator = W = 4500N.

A light bulb can be all of the following except
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer: A light bulb can be all of the following except option C (a consumer product if it is used to light the office of the board of directors.)

Explanation:

Products are classified as being BUSINESS or CONSUMER products according to the buyer's intended use of the product.

-Consumer products: these are sold goods that are used for personal, family, or household use. The intention of the buyer is for the products to satisfy his personal needs and desires. Example of some of the consumer products include: toothpaste, eatables and clothes.

Business products: products that are not for personal use but for the manufacturing of other goods are called business products.

Therefore a bulb is not serving as a personal use when used to light the office of the board of directors rather it's serving as a business product .

A 5.0-ohm resistor, a 10.0-ohm resistor, and a 15.0-ohm resistor are connected in parallel with a battery. The current through t
Kaylis [27]

Answer:

E = 3456 J

Explanation:

The electrical energy expended in a resistor can be easily calculated by using the following formula:

E = Pt

where,

E = Energy Expended = ?

I = current through 5 ohm resistor = 2.4 A

R = Resistance = 5 ohms

P = Electrical Power = VI

Since,

V = IR (Ohm's Law)

Therefore,

P = (IR)(I) = I²R = (2.4 A)²(5 ohms) = 28.8 Watt

t = time taken = (2 min)(60 s/1 min) = 120 s

Therefore,

E = (28.8 Watt)(120 s)

<u>E = 3456 J</u>

With each beat of your heart the aortic valve opens and closes. The valve opens and closes very rapidly, with a peak velocity as
Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

|Δf| = 37.3 kHz

Explanation:

given,

peak velocity = 4 m/s

speed of the sound = 1500 m/s

frequency = 7 MHz

v = C\dfrac{\pm \dlta f}{2 f_0}

\delta f = \pm 2 f_0 (\dfrac{V}{C})

\delta f = \pm 2\times 7 (\dfrac{4}{1500})

           =\pm 0.0373 MHz

           = 37.3 kHz

|Δf| = 37.3 kHz

hence, frequency shift between the opening and closing valve is 37.3 kHz
