Answer:

Weightlessness

Explanation:

When the elevator is in free fall, this can only occur when the cord of the elevator breaks.

The acceleration of the elevator will be equal to the acceleration due to gravity. That is:

a = g

Then, the body will experience what we called WEIGHTLESSNESS

Where the normal reaction N of the person will tend to zero. That is

N = 0

The value of FN < 0 because the person inside the lift will experience weightlessness.

How does pressure affect surface tension
tatyana61 [14]

the effect of pressure on surface tension can be attributed in part to absorption of gas at the surface of the liquid and in part to an intrinsic decrease in density of the liquid in the neighborhood of the surface.

In the case of liquids , Owing to contact forces between the edge of the surface and the vessel, the surface acquires a curvature, and if the liquid rises up at the edges where it meets the vessel, the pressure will be less in the liquid than in the air, for points just below and just above the surface. The vessel exerts an upward force on the liquid. This is simply a matter of looking at the directions of forces acting, knowing that the surface is under tension.

A barge floating in fresh water (p = 1000 kg/m3) is shaped like a hollow rectangular prism with base area A = 550 m2 and height H
Karolina [17]

Answer:

a) \Delta m = 330000\,kg, b) h = 1.268\,m

Explanation:

a) According the Archimedes' Principle, the buoyancy force is equal to the displaced weight of surrounding liquid. The mass of the coal in the barge is:

\Delta m \cdot g = \rho_{w}\cdot g \cdot \Delta V

\Delta m = \rho_{w}\cdot \Delta V

\Delta m = \left(1000\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}} \right)\cdot (550\,m^{2})\cdot (1.05\,m-0.45\,m)

\Delta m = 330000\,kg

b) The submersion height is found by using the equation derived previously:

\Delta m = \rho_{w}\cdot \Delta V

450000\,kg = \left(1000\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}}\right)\cdot (550\,m^{2})\cdot (h-0.45\,m)

The final submersion height is:

h = 1.268\,m

A television camera at ground level is filming at the lift-off of a space shuttle that is rising vertically according to the pos
Dominik [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

s = 50 t^2

Differentiate both sides with respect to t

ds/dt = 50 x 2 t

ds/dt = 100 t

Substitute t = 10 second

ds/dt = 100 x 10

ds/dt = 1000 m/s

thus, the rate of change of elevation is 1000 m/s.
