A 60.0-kg person rides in elevator while standing on a scale. The elevator is traveling downward but

slowing down at a rate of 2.00 m/s2. The reading on the scale is closest to

Answers

Answer 1
The effective acceleration will be 9.8 + 2 = 11.8 m/s^2
The reading on the scale will be 60x11.8 = 708 N
Answer 2

The reading on the scale is closest to 708N.

What is weight?

The weight of any object is the mass times the acceleration due to gravity on Earth or any other planet.

Weight W = mg

where g = 9.81 m/s²

Given is the mass of person, m = 60kg, and the acceleration downward of the elevator a =2 m/s² , then the weight will be

W = m(a+g)

W = 60x (2+9.81)

W=  60x11.8

W= 708 N

Thus, reading on the scale will be 708N

A solid nonconducting sphere of radius R carries a charge Q distributed uniformly throughout its volume. At a certain distance rl (r (A) E/8
(B) E 78.
(C) E/2
(D) 2E
(E) 8E

Answers

Answer:

A ) E/8

Explanation:

If the sphere of radius R  carries charge Q,  then the volumetric charge density is:

ρ₁ = [Q/ (4/3)*π*R³]

Therefore the net charge inside r  ( r < R ) is:

q₁ = ρ * (4/3)*π*r³

And E = K * q₁/r                  K = 9,98 *10⁹ [N*m²/C²]

E = K *  ρ * (4/3)*π*r³/r

E = K *  ρ * (4/3)*π*r²

If now the charge is distributed over a sphere of radius 2R

ρ₂ =  [Q/ (4/3)*π*(2R)³]

ρ₂ =  [Q/ (4/3)*π*8*R³]

Then  ρ₂ < ρ₁    in fact     ρ₂ = (1/8)*ρ₁

The electric field depends on the net charge enclosed by a gaussian surface, and the distance between the net charge and the considered point, ( considering the net charge as being at the center of the gaussian surface) In this case, there was no distance change then

E₂ = E₁/8

The right answer is lyrics  A ) E/8

A spring gun is able to launch a 7.0 gram marble to a vertical height of 22 mmeasured from the compressed point of the marble). If the spring iscompressed 8.0 cm from its relaxed state, what will be the spring constant

Answers

Answer: Spring constant = 472N/m

Explanation:

The change in  gravitational potential energy by the spring is given as = mgh

where m= 7.0 g = 7 X 10 -3kg

g= 9.8m/s

h= 22m

Gravitational potential energy= mgh

= 7.0 x  10^-3 X 9.8  x 22 = 1.5092 J

Remember that  change in  gravitational potential energy by the spring =elastic potential energy

Therefore,  Potential energy P. E = 1/2 K x²

where K= CONSTANT

x= 8.0

2 X 1.5092 J / (8.0 X 10^-2)²= 471.625 ROUNDED TO 472 N/m

Derivation 1.2 showed how to calculate the work of reversible, isothermal expansion of a perfect gas. Suppose that the expansion is reversible but not isothermal and that the temperature decreases as the expansion proceeds. (a) Find an expression

Answers

Answer:

(a) The work done by the gas on the surroundings is, 17537.016 J

(b) The entropy change of the gas is, 73.0709 J/K

(c) The entropy change of the gas is equal to zero.

Explanation:

(a) The expression used for work done in reversible isothermal expansion will be,

where,

w = work done = ?

n = number of moles of gas  = 4 mole

R = gas constant = 8.314 J/mole K

T = temperature of gas  = 240 K

= initial volume of gas  =  

= final volume of gas  =  

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

The work done by the gas on the surroundings is, 17537.016 J

(b) Now we have to calculate the entropy change of the gas.

As per first law of thermodynamic,

where,

= internal energy

q = heat

w = work done

As we know that, the term internal energy is the depend on the temperature and the process is isothermal that means at constant temperature.

So, at constant temperature the internal energy is equal to zero.

Thus, w = q = 17537.016 J

Formula used for entropy change:

The entropy change of the gas is, 73.0709 J/K

(c) Now we have to calculate the entropy change of the gas when the expansion is reversible and adiabatic instead of isothermal.

As we know that, in adiabatic process there is no heat exchange between the system and surroundings. That means, q = constant = 0

So, from this we conclude that the entropy change of the gas must also be equal to zero.

What is the energy contained in a 1.30 m3 volume near the Earth's surface due to radiant energy from the Sun

Answers

Answer:

The energy contained is 5.856 x 10⁻ J

Explanation:

Average energy density of electromagnetic radiation per unit volume is given by the equation;

[tex]U_{avg} = \frac{1}{2} \epsilon _o E_o[/tex]²

where;

[tex]\epsilon _o[/tex] is permittivity of free space

[tex]E_o[/tex] is maximum electric field strength, this can be calculated from the intensity of sun reaching the Earth's surface.

[tex]E_o = \sqrt{\frac{2I}{\epsilon_o C} }[/tex]

The intensity of sun reaching the Earth is 1350 W/m²

[tex]E_o = \sqrt{\frac{2*1350}{8.885*10^{-12}*3*10^8 } } \\\\E_o = 1008.96 \ V/m\\[/tex]

Average energy density of electromagnetic radiation per unit volume;

[tex]U_{avg} = \frac{1}{2} \epsilon_o E_o^2\\\\U_{avg} = \frac{1}{2} (8.85*10^{-12})(1008.96)^2\\\\U_{avg} = 4.505 *10^{-6} \ J/m^3[/tex]

The energy contained in a 1.30 m³ volume is given by;

E = (4.505 x 10⁻⁶)(1.3)

E = 5.856 x 10⁻ J

Therefore, the energy contained is 5.856 x 10⁻ J

(a) Neglecting friction, what should the speed of the car be at the top of the second pass? (b) Find the actual speed of the car if the work due to nonconservative forces is – 5 x106 J.

Answers

Answer:

a) v = 88.54 m/s

b) vf = 26.4 m/s

Explanation:

Given that;

m = 1400.0 kg

a)

by using the energy conservation

loss in potential energy is equal to gain in kinetic energy

mg × ( 3200-2800) = 1/2 ×m×v²

so

1400 × 9.8 × 400 = 0.5 × 1400 × v²

5488000 = 700v²

v² = 5488000 / 700

v² = 7840

v = √7840

v = 88.54 m/s

b)

Work done by all forces is equal to change in KE

W_gravity + W_non - conservative = 1/2×m×(vf² - vi²)

we substitute

1400 × 9.8 × ( 3200-2800) - (5 × 10⁶) = 1/2 × 1400 × (vf²  -0 )

488000 = 700 vf²

vf² = 488000 / 700

vf² = 697.1428

vf = √697.1428

vf = 26.4 m/s

Explanation:

Having results that do not support the hypothesis is a common occurrence.

Hypotheses always depend on the data and experiment. If at the end of an investigation the results do not support the hypothesis, the investigation should be be repeated to further confirm this discovery.

And if there is still no correlation, then the hypothesis is not a reasonable explanation for the investigation and should be modified or rejected if necessary.

The Cookie Monster’s house was 10 miles away and it took Big Bird another 15 minutes to get there. Because Cookie Monster wasn’t home, he was only there for 5 minutes. Big Bird then headed home, a trip that was 20 miles away and took him 25 minutes. What was the average speed for Big Bird’s whole trip (include his visiting time)?

Answers

Average speed =

divided by

That's 28.57 miles per hour.

The average speed of Big Bird is 0.384 miles/minute.

What is average speed?

The average speed of a body is the ratio of the total distance travelled and the time taken to travel that distance.

Average speed = total distance travelled/time taken

The total distance travelled = 50 miles

total time taken = 130 minutes

Average speed = 50 miles/130 minutes = 0.384 miles/minute.

Therefore, the average speed of Big Bird is 0.384 miles/minute.

Answers

Answer:

The average force exerted on the superball by the sidewalk is 0.00122 N.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the super ball, m = 50 g = 0.05 kg

initial velocity of the super bowl, u = -27 m/s (assuming downward motion to be negative)

final velocity of the super bowl, u = 17 m/s (assuming upward motion to be positive)

time of motion, t = 1800 s

The average force exerted on the superball by the sidewalk is given by;

[tex]F = ma\\\\F = \frac{m(v-u)}{t} \\\\F = \frac{0.05(17-(-27))}{1800}\\\\ F = \frac{0.05(44)}{1800}\\\\F = 0.00122 \ N[/tex]
