Physics

6 0

Answer:

F = M a is the vector equation involved

F = T - M g      are the forces acting on the elevator   (scalar equation)

T - M g = M a

T = M (a + g)    remember this a scalar

If a is slowing down then it must have a positive acceleration upwards

Therefor the tension in the cable must be greater than zero

When the tension increases to M g, a has increased to zero

For a to be zero, no acceleration, T = M g

radar wave is transmitted and later reflected off an aircraft and recieved 1.4×10^3 sec after being sent out. how far is the air
lutik1710 [3]

I think there's a typo because the answer I'm getting is very large.

This is what I'm getting

--------------------------------------

c = speed of light

c = 3.0 x 10^8 m/sec approximately

This is roughly 300 million meters per second

The time it takes the signal to reach the aircraft and come back is 1.4 x 10^3 seconds. Half of this time period is going one direction (say from the radar station to the aircraft), so (1.4 x 10^3)/2 = 7.0 x 10^2 seconds is spent going in this one direction.

distance = rate*time

d = r*t

d = (3.0 x 10^8) * (7.0 x 10^2)

d = (3.0*7.0) x (10^8*10^2)

d = 21.0 x 10^(8+2)

d = 21.0 x 10^10

d = (2.1 x 10^1) * 10^10

d = 2.1 x (10^1*10^10)

d = 2.1 x 10^11 meters

d = 210,000,000,000 meters (this is 210 billion meters; equivalent to roughly 130,487,950 miles)

Coulomb's law is expressed mathematically as
nataly862011 [7]
Force between two charges  = 

     ( 1/4πε₀ ) · (Charge #1) · (Charge #2) / (Distance between them)²

  in the direction away from each other.

In other words, if the force is positive, the charges are repelling.
If the force is negative, the charges are attracting.

When a beam of charged particles moves through a magnetic field, what is the evidence that particles in the beam have momentum g
Vsevolod [243]

The charged particles are often deflated in a magnetic field.

<h3>What is a magnetic field?</h3>

The term charge refers to a positive or negative entity. The can be created when a charge is made to pass through a conductor in a magnetic field.

A magnetic field is created when we have a north pole and a south pole. The charged particles could be made to pass through the electric field and when that happens, we can see a pattern a shown in the image attached.

Thus, we can see that the charged particles are often deflated in a magnetic field.
