Answer:

The associated SI unit of force and weight is the Newton, with 1 kilogram weighing 9.8 Newtons under standard conditions on the Earth's surface. However, in the US common units, the pound is the unit of force (and therefore weight). The pound is the widely used unit for commerce.

Eric has a mass of 80 kgkg. He is standing on a scale in an elevator that is accelerating downward at 1.7 m/s2m/s2. What is the

kolezko [41]

Answer:

The answer will be 936 N.

Explanation:

Given that

m = 80 kg

Acceleration of the elevator , a= 1.7 m/s² ( upward)

The gravity force on the mass = m g

The reading on the scale = F N

Now by applying the Newton's second law

F - m g = ma

F= m g + m a

F= m ( g +a )

F= 80 ( 10 + 1.7 ) N ( take g= 10 m/s²)

F=80 x 11.7 N

F= 936 N

Therefore the reading on the scale will be 936 N.

The answer will be 936 N.

A tuning fork generates sound waves with a frequency of 240 Hz. The waves travel in opposite directions along a hallway, are ref

Bingel [31]

Answer:

The phase difference between the reflected waves when they meet at the tuning fork is 159.29 rad.

Explanation:

Given that,

Frequency of sound wave = 240 Hz

Distance = 46.0 m

Distance of fork = 14 .0 m

We need to calculate the path difference

Using formula of path difference

$\Delta x=2(L_{2}-L_{1})$

Put the value into the formula

$\Delta x =2((46.0-14.0)-14.0)$

$\Delta x=36\ m$

We need to calculate the wavelength

Using formula of wavelength

$\lambda=\dfrac{v}{f}$

Put the value into the formula

$\lambda=\dfrac{343}{240}$

$\lambda=1.42\ m$

We need to calculate the phase difference

Using formula of the phase difference

$\phi=\dfrac{2\pi}{\lambda}\times \delta x$

Put the value into the formula

$\phi=\dfrac{2\pi}{1.42}\times36$

$\phi=159.29\ rad$

$\phi\approx 68.2^{\circ}$

Hence, The phase difference between the reflected waves when they meet at the tuning fork is 159.29 rad.

A wooden plaque is in the shape of an ellipse with height 30 centimeters and width 22 centimeters. Find an equation for the elli

Volgvan

Answer:

Explanation:

height of Ellipse $=30 cm$

i.e. $2 a=30$

Width of Ellipse $=22 cm$

i.e. $2 b=22$

Equation of a vertical Ellipse is

$\frac{x^2}{b^2}+\frac{y^2}{a^2}=1$

$a=15 ,b =11$

$\frac{x^2}{11^2}+\frac{y^2}{15^2}=1$

at $y=4 cm$

$\frac{x^2}{11^2}+\frac{4^2}{15^2}=1$

$x=\frac{11}{15}\times \sqrt{15^2-4^2}$

$x=10.6 cm$
