Given :-

An elevator is moving vertically up with an acceleration a.

To Find :-

The force exerted on the floor by a passenger of mass m .

Solution :-

As the man is in a accelerated frame that is non inertial frame , we would have to think of a pseudo force .

The direction of this force is opposite to the direction of acceleration the frame and its magnitude is equal to the product of mass of the concerned body with the acceleration of the frame .

For the FBD refer to the attachment . From that ,

$\implies Weight_{apparent}= mg + ma$

Hence option d is correct choice .

I hope this helps .

Why does the total amount of energy before and after any energy transformations remain the same?

snow_tiger [21]

The Law of Conservation of Energy states that, in an isolated system, energy remains constant and can not be created or destroyed, only transferred from one form to another. This law was created by Julius Robert Mayer.

In most cases, what happens to a liquid when it cools?

erik [133]

Answer:

Option (A) and (F)

Explanation:

As the liquid cools down, it means the temperature decreases the density of the liquid increases in most o the cases.

Now the volume is inversely proportional to the density of substance so density increases.

A parallel plate capacitor creates a uniform electric field of and its plates are separated by . A proton is placed at rest next

zalisa [80]

Complete Question

A parallel plate capacitor creates a uniform electric field of 5 x 10^4 N/C and its plates are separated by 2 x 10^{-3}'m. A proton is placed at rest next to the positive plate and then released and moves toward the negative plate. When the proton arrives at the negative plate, what is its speed?

Answer:

$V=1.4*10^5m/s$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Electric field $B=1.5*10N/C$

Distance $d=2 x 10^{-3}$

At negative plate

Generally the equation for Velocity is mathematically given by

$V^2=2as$

Therefore

$V^2=\frac{2*e_0E*d}{m}$

$V^2=\frac{2*1.6*10^{-19}(5*10^4)*2 * 10^{-3}}{1.67*10^{-28}}$

$V=\sqrt{19.2*10^9}$

$V=1.4*10^5m/s$

What length of tube would be required to produce a second tone under the same experimental conditions? Explain your answer.

Alisiya [41]

There is an indirect relationship between length and frequency. The longer the length the pipe has, the higher frequency it is. The shorter the length the pipe has, the lower frequency it is.

Explanation:

The four properties of the string that affect its frequency are length, diameter, tension, and density. These properties are described below: When the length of a string is changed, it will vibrate with a different frequency. Shorter strings have higher frequency and therefore higher pitch.

The longer the tube is the lower the pitch of the note that it can emit. When a tube is heated it expands and so is longer! As the gas in the tube gets warmer the molecules move faster, that means they can carry the vibrations of the sound wave more rapidly and so the pitch goes up.
