[Weight of a body depends upon mass and acceleration due to gravity (since w=m*g). Mass is constant quantity but acceleration due to gravity is variable.] space is a null point where value of acceleration due to gravity is zero hence weight becomes zero.

A 45.0-kg person steps on a scale in an elevator. The scale reads 460 n. What is the magnitude of the acceleration of the elevat
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

The magnitude of the acceleration of the elevator is 0.422 m/s²

Explanation:

Lets explain how to solve the problem

Due to Newton's Law ∑ Forces in direction of motion is equal to mass

multiplied by the acceleration

We have here two forces 460 N in direction of motion and the weight

of the person in opposite direction of motion

The weight of the person is his mass multiplied by the acceleration of

gravity

→ W = mg , where m is the mass and g is the acceleration of gravity

→ m = 45 kg and g = 9.8 m/s²

Substitute these values in the rule above

→ W = 45 × 9.8 = 441 N

The scale reads 460 N

→ F = 460 N , W = 441 N , m = 45 kg

→ F - W = ma

→ 460 - 441 = 45 a

→ 19 = 45 a

Divide both sides by 45

→ a = 0.422 m/s²

<em>The magnitude of the acceleration of the elevator is 0.422 m/s²</em>

At the Equator near Earth’s surface, the magnetic field is approximately 82.2 µT northward and the electric field is about 143 N
IrinaK [193]

Answer:

Magnitude of gravitational force of the electron= 3.74×10^12N

Explanation:

Felectron= Fgravitational

Therefore:

Felectron/Fgravitational = kq^2/r^2 ×(r^2/Gm^2)

= kq^2/Gm^2

Where G= gravitational constant

m = mass of electron=9.1×10^-31

K= 8.9x10^9

q= 1.6×10^-19

Magnitude of gravitational force= (8.9×10^9)×(1.6×10^-19)^2/(6.7×10^-11)×(9.1×10^-31)

=( 2.2784×10^-28) / ( 6.097×10^-41)

= 3.74×10^12N

The electric field is strongest where equipotential curves are:_______.A) closest togetherB) farthest apartC) most nearly straig
cluponka [151]

Answer:

A closest

Explanation:

This is because the electric field will be strongest or largestwhen the equipotential curves are closest together

We know that the field is

E= V/d

Where is distance and we see that d being the denominator will only make E bigger if it becomes smaller that is the curves closest

The perceived frequency of a sound wave.
antoniya [11.8K]

<em> Frequency is perceived by humans as pitch; The sound intensity is the amplitude; Humans can only hear a specific range of sound, usually from 20 Hz to 20,000 Hz; The factors that go into a sound are its intensity, frequency and overtones (which are like interference, or background noises).</em>

A technician wearing a brass bracelet enclosing area 0.00500 m2 places her hand in a solenoid whose magnetic field is 4.50 T dir
notka56 [123]

Answer:

39.375 A

Explanation:

To find the induced current, we use the relation

e = -ΔΦ/Δt, where

ΔΦ = change in magnetic flux of the bracelet

Δt = change in time, = 20 ms

Also, Φ = A.ΔB, such that

A = area of the bracelet, 0.005m²

ΔB = magnetic field strength of the bracelet = 1.35 - 4.5 = -3.15 T

ΔΦ = A.ΔB

ΔΦ = 0.005 * -3.15

ΔΦ = -.01575 wb

e = -ΔΦ/Δt

e = -0.01575 / 20*10^-3

e = 0.7875 V

From the question, the resistance of the bracelet is 0.02 ohm, so

From Ohms Law, I = V/R

I = 0.7875 / 0.02

I = 39.375 A
