Answer:
2.96 cm
Explanation:
By Hook's law
Force(F) = Spring constant(k) × Extension(d)
F = k × d
Force is the weight of the object, F = W = mg
So we get, mg = kd ⇒ m ∝ d
2.5 ∝ 1.68 --------------(1)
4.4 ∝ d' --------------(2)
From (1) & (2), 4.4/2.5 = d'/1.68
d' = 2.96 cm ⇒ the required extension.
Answer:
v = 20.31 m/s
Explanation:
p = mv -> v = p/m = 32,500 kg*m/s / 1,600 kg = 20.31 m/s
The force of gravity F_g will act downwards.
Normal force F_N will act upwards equal to the force of gravity.
A force due to uniform acceleration F_a will act upwards to move the elevator upwards.
Thus, figure E is the correct answer.
