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.

I'd have to say that the list of choices doesn't go far enough.

Advances in Astronomy have been occurring for at least the past two millennia (2000 years).  Maybe longer.

5) Find the initial velocity for a 700 kg car that
Serhud [2]

Answer:

Δv = 12 m/s, but we are not given the direction, so there are really an infinite number of potential solutions.

Maximum initial speed is 40.6 m/s

Minimum initial speed is 16.6 m/s

Explanation:

Assume this is a NET impulse so we can ignore friction.

An impulse results in a change of momentum

The impulse applied was

p = Ft = 1400(6.0) = 8400 N•s

p = mΔv

Δv = 8400 / 700 = 12 m/s

If the impulse was applied in the direction the car was already moving, the initial velocity was

vi = 28.6 - 12 = 16.6 m/s

if the impulse was applied in the direction opposite of the original velocity, the initial velocity was

vi = 28.6 + 12 = 40.6 m/s

Other angles of Net force would result in various initial velocities.
