Answer:

Tension, T = 87.63  N

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the object, m = 6.9 kg

The string is acting in the upward direction, a = 2.9 m/s²

Acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s²

As the lift is accelerating upwards, it means the net force acting on it is given by :

T = m(a+g)

= 6.9 (2.9+9.8)

= 6.9(2.7)

= 87.63  N

So, the tension in the string is 87.63  N.

An object of mass 0.40 kg, hanging from a spring with a spring constant of 8.0 N/m, is set into an up-and-down simple harmonic m
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

a = 2 m/s2

Explanation:

we know from newtons 2nd law

F = ma.

we also know that from hookes law we have

F = kx

equate both value of force to get value of acceleration

kx = ma,

where,

k is spring constant = 8.0 N/m

x is maximum displacement  0.10 m

m is mass of object 0.40 kg

a = \frac{kx}{m}

     = \frac{8 *0 .10}{0.40}

a = 2 m/s2
