Answer:
Explanation:
The equation for this, since we are talking about weight on an elevator, is Newton's 2nd Law adjusted to fit our needs:
where the Normal Force needed to lift that elevator car is the tension. So the equation then becomes
T = ma + w where T is the tension in the cable to lift the elevator, m is the mass of the elevator (which we have to solve for), a is the acceleration of the elevator (positive since it's going up), and w is the weight of the elevator (which we have as 5500 N). Solving first for mass:
w = mg and
5500 =- m(10) so
m = 550 kg. Now we have what we need to solve for the tension:
T = 550(4.0) + 5500 and
T = 2200 + 5500 so
T = 7700 N
The correct answer is C) the focus
The last equation gives you the tension in the string on the right:
Answer:
(a) The equivalent spring constant is 598.485 N/m
(b) The work done is 46.926 J
Explanation:
From Hooke's law of elasticity
K (spring constant) = F/e
F is the range of force exerted = 237 - 0 = 237 N
e is the extension of bowstring = 0.396 m
K = F/e = 237/0.396 = 598.485 N/m
Work done = 1/2 Fe = 1/2 × 237 × 0.396 = 46.926 J
