Answer:

F - M a      force exerted by scales on student

M a = M (9.8 + 4.9) m/s^2      upwards chosen as positive

a = 1.5 g        net acceleration of student  due to force of scales

W =M g       weight of student   (actual weight)

Wapp = M 1.5 * g      apparent weight (on scales) of student

1.Two materials that can be scratched by an iron mail are ___, ___
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

1. Two materials that can be scratched by an iron nail are <u>zinc</u> and <u>aluminum</u>

2. A substance that can be scratched by an iron nail but not a penny is;

Nickel

Explanation:

The hardness of a material can be defined as its ability to resist being plastically deformed at a location due to mechanical scratching, abrasion or indentation

The Mohs hardness scale provides a ranking of materials in the order of hardness with a material having a higher Mohs hardness number being able to scratch other materials which have a lower Mohs hardness number

1. From the Mohs scale of hardness, iron which has an harness number of 4.5 can scratch zinc which has an harness number of 2.5, and iron can also scratch aluminum which has an hardness number of 2.5 to 3

2. A penny is made from copper plated material and will have an outer layer hardness of copper which has an hardness number of 3 on the Mohs scale

Therefore, a penny cannot scratch a material mode of nickel which has an hardness number of 4, while iron which has an hardness of 4.5 will scratch a nickel material

Describe the relationship between input force, output force,<br>and load force.​
g100num [7]

Answer: the relationship between the input force and output force is that, Input Force represents the amount of force that you put into another object (which is considered as the load force) while Output Force represents the force that a specific object has as a result of the input force.

Explanation:

Using a lever as an example, a broom is a lever used to sweep floors, the input force is applied by one of the arm used in sweeping, while the output force is on the other edge of the broom (broom tip)
