The magnitude of force on the elevator cable that would be needed to lower the cat/elevator pair is 198 Newton.

<u>Given the following data:</u>

  • Mass of cat = 2 kg
  • Mass of elevator = 97 kg
  • Acceleration = 2 m/s^2

To determine the magnitude of force on the elevator cable that would be needed to lower the cat/elevator pair, we would apply Newton's Second Law of Motion:

First of all, we would calculate the total mass of the cat/elevator pair.

Total \;mass=2 + 97

Total mass = 99 kilograms

Mathematically, Newton's Second Law of Motion is given by this formula;

Force = mass \times acceleration

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

Force = 99 \times 2

Net force = 198 Newton

The vibrations along a transverse wave move in a direction _________.
GrogVix [38]

Answer: perpendicular to it oscillations.

Explanation: A transverse wave is a wave whose oscillations is perpendicular to the direction of the wave.

By perpendicular, we mean that the wave is oscillating on the vertical axis (y) of a Cartesian plane and the vibration is along the horizontal axis (x) of the plane.

Examples of transverse waves includes wave in a string, water wave and light.

Let us take a wave in a string for example, you tie one end of a string to a fixed point and the other end is free with you holding it.

If you move the rope vertically ( that's up and down) you will notice a kind of wave traveling away from you ( horizontally) to the fixed point.

Since the oscillations is perpendicular to the direction of wave, it is a transverse wave

A 0.20-kg mass is oscillating on a spring over a horizontal frictionless surface. When it is at a displacement of 2.6 cm for equ
valentinak56 [21]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

                    mass = 0.20 kg

              displacement = 2.6 cm

              Kinetic energy = 1.4 J

       Spring potential energy = 2.2 J

Now, we will calculate the total energy present present as follows.

         Total energy = Kinetic energy + spring potential energy

                           = 1.4 J + 2.2 J

                            = 3.6 Joules

As maximum kinetic energy of the object will be equal to the total energy.

So,      K.E = Total energy

                = 3.6 J

Also, we know that

                  K.E = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2}_{m}

or,                   v = \sqrt{\frac{2K.E}{m}}

                        = \sqrt{2 \times 3.6 J}{0.2 kg}

                        = \sqrt{36}

                        = 6 m/s

thus, we can conclude that maximum speed of the mass during its oscillation is 6 m/s.
