6 0

Answer:

5.2941176471 kg or 5294.1 grams

Explanation:

g.p.e= mgh

g.p.e/gh=m

180j/10×3.4= m

180/34= m

5.2941 kg= m

A 45.0-kg person steps on a scale in an elevator. The scale reads 460 n. What is the magnitude of the acceleration of the elevat
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

The magnitude of the acceleration of the elevator is 0.422 m/s²

Explanation:

Lets explain how to solve the problem

Due to Newton's Law ∑ Forces in direction of motion is equal to mass

multiplied by the acceleration

We have here two forces 460 N in direction of motion and the weight

of the person in opposite direction of motion

The weight of the person is his mass multiplied by the acceleration of

gravity

→ W = mg , where m is the mass and g is the acceleration of gravity

→ m = 45 kg and g = 9.8 m/s²

Substitute these values in the rule above

→ W = 45 × 9.8 = 441 N

The scale reads 460 N

→ F = 460 N , W = 441 N , m = 45 kg

→ F - W = ma

→ 460 - 441 = 45 a

→ 19 = 45 a

Divide both sides by 45

→ a = 0.422 m/s²

<em>The magnitude of the acceleration of the elevator is 0.422 m/s²</em>

compare the different ways a musician changes the pitch while playing a stringed instrument or playing a wind instrument
alexdok [17]
(This is from experience so sorry if it's wrong but) When wind instruments are played, sometimes the notes go flat or sharp depending on the speed the player blows air into the instrument as well as the warmth of the air. When playing a string instrument, the pitch can be changed in many ways. For example, when the player places their fingers on the string depending on which part of the tip of the finger you use, the tone of the sound and sometimes the pitch, changes. Looking at the question in a different way, you can change the pitch and the range of notes you can reach on the instrument (both wind and string) by changing the note you tune your instrument to. Hope this helps!!
