An elevator is being pulled up from the ground floor to the third floor by a cable. The cable is exerting 4500 newtons of force on the elevator. According to Newton's law of action-reaction, what is the gravitational force on the elevator, in newtons, if the elevator is NOT accelerating?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The gravitational force on the elevator = 4500N

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The force applied by the elevator, F  = 4500 N

The acceleration of the elevator = Not accelerating

From Newton's third law of motion, the action of the cable force is equal to the reaction of the gravitational force on the elevator which is the weight, W and motion of the elevator as follows;

F = W + Mass of elevator × Acceleration of elevator

∴ F = W + Mass of elevator × 0 = W

F = 4500 N = W

The net force on the elevator is F - W = 0

The gravitational force on the elevator = W = 4500N.

Answer 2

The gravitational force on the elevator, if the elevator is NOT accelerating is 4500 N.

Given data:

The magnitude of force on the elevator is, F = 4500 N.

From Newton's third law of motion, the action of the cable force is equal to the reaction of the gravitational force on the elevator which is the weight, W and motion of the elevator as follows,

F = W + ma

Here, a is the acceleration of the elevator. Since, the elevator is not accelerating. Then, a = 0 .

The weight of the elevator is due to the gravitational force. So, we need to obtain the weight as gravitational force.

Solving as,

[tex]F = W+ma\\\\F=W +(m \times 0)\\\\4500=W\\\\W = 4500 \;\rm N[/tex]

Thus, we can conclude that the gravitational force on the elevator, if the elevator is NOT accelerating is 4500 N.

A plane flies due north (90° from east) with a velocity of 100 km/h for 3 hours. During this time, a steady wind blows southeast at 30 km/h at an angle of 315° from due east. After 3 hours, where will the plane’s position be relative to its starting point?

*Please try to fill the data table.

Answers

Answer:

thank you

Explanation:

Split up the two given velocity vectors into horizontal and vertical components.

Plane:

p = (100 km/h) (cos(90°) i + sin(90°) j ) = (100 km/h) j

Its direction is given, 90° relative to east.

Traveling for 3 hours with this velocity results in a displacement of

p * (3 h) = (300 km/h) (3h) j = (900 km) j

meaning that this velocity contributes to a north-facing displacement of 900 km.

Wind:

w = (30 km/h) (cos(315°) i + sin(315°) j ) ≈ (21.2 km/h) i + (-21.2 km/h) j

Its direction is also given, 315° relative to east.

After 3 h, this velocity contributes to a displacement of

w * (3h) ≈ (63.6 km) i + (-63.6 km) j

meaning if the plane had no velocity of its own but somehow stayed in the air, the wind would have pushed it about 63.6 km south and 63.6 km east, which translates to a net displacement of

√((63.6 km)² + (-63.6 km)²) = 90 km

due southeast.

Putting everything together, your table displacement table should read:

.                       |   wind   |   plane

velocity           |   30      |   100       ...   km/h

direction         |   90°     |   315°      ...   relative to east

x                      |   63.6   |   0           ...   km

y                      |  -63.6   |   900      ...   km

The resultant vector is the sum of these, r = p + w :

r ≈ (21.2 km/h) i + (78.8 km/h) j

After 3 h, the resultant displacement is

r * (3h) ≈ (63.6 km) i + (236.4 km) j

with magnitude

√((63.6 km)² + (236.4 km)²) ≈ 244.8 km

and direction θ such that

tan(θ) ≈ (236.4 km) / (63.6 km)

θ ≈ arctan(3.714) ≈ 74.9°

So the resultant table should read

xnet             |   63.6 km

ynet             |   236.4 km

magnitude   |   244.8 km

theta            |   74.9° relative to east

A diver runs horizontally off the end of a diving board with an initial speed of 1.95 m/s. If the diving board is 2.00 m above the water, what is the diver's speed just before she enters the water

Answers

Answer:

V = 6.56 m/s

Explanation:

in order to find the speed of the diver before she enters we need to find the vertical component of its final velocity by using 3rd equation of motion:

2gh = Vy² - V₀y²

where,

g = 9.8 m/s²

h = height = 2 m

Vy = Vertical Component of Final Velocity = ?

V₀y = Vertical Component of Initial Velocity = 0 m/s

Therefore,

2(9.8 m/s²)(2 m) = Vy² - (0 m/s)²

Vy = √39.2 m²/s²

Vy = 6.26 m/s

Assuming negligible air friction, the x-component of the final velocity will be the same as the initial velocity:

Vₓ = V₀ₓ = 1.95 m/s

Hence, the final velocity will be:

V = √(Vₓ² + Vy²)

V = √[(1.95 m/s)² + (6.26 m/s)²]

V = 6.56 m/s

Speed

Answers

Answer:

7.53 km

Explanation:

We at given;

Speed of runner; v_r = 8.5 km/hr

Speed of bird; v_y = 17 km/hr

L = 6.4 km

We know that; time = distance/speed.

We are told that the bird starts from 6.4 km from the start and that it flies back to meet the runner after it reaches the finish line. If the total distance back to the runner is x, it means bird distance is 6.4 + (6.4 - x) = 12.8 - x

Thus;

Time of bird(t_y) = (12.8 - x)/17

Thus,

Time of runner(t_r) = x/8.5 hr

To find x, we have to equate the times of the runner and the bird.

Thus;

x/8.5 = (12.8 - x)/17

Multiply both sides by 17 to get;

2x = 12.8 - x

2x + x = 12.8

3x = 12.8

x = 12.8/3

x = 4.27 km

Thus, cumulative distance traveled by bird is; 12.8 - 4.27 = 7.53 km

O Olbs up
O 60 lbs up
O 120 lbs up
240 lbs up

Those 4 numbers are the answer choices plz help

Answers

Answer:

The answer is 120lbs

Explanation:

because the scale exerts enough force to equal out to 0 and since the person is putting 120lbs onto the scale it then pushes back enough force to keep them up

The upward force acting on the body is 534 N which is equal to 240 lbs in the upward direction, hence, option d is correct.

What is force?

Force is an external agent acting on a body to change it from the state of motion or rest. There are various kind of forces namely, gravitational force, magnetic force, nuclear force etc.

Gravitational force is the force by which an object  attracts other objects to its center of mass. Gravitational force depends on the  mass of the object and the distance from the surface of earth.

The weight of the person is 120 lbs.

1 Kg = 2.2 lbs

120 lbs = 54.5 Kg.

The force acting on the body by their weight =  mg = 54.5 Kg × 9. 8 m/s².

= 534 N.

Hence, 534 N is  240 lbs  (534 /2.2 ) of force upward.

A submarine is built to dive to a depth of 90 m where the pressure in the water is about 1 MPa. The engineers want to build a window in the submarine, but the window can only take a force of 10 kN safely. What is the largest surface area window that can be used?

Answers

Answer:

The largest surface area window that can be used is [tex]A=0.01\ m^2[/tex]

Explanation:

Pressure

The pressure is defined as force per unit area. The SI unit for pressure is the Pascal (Pa), defined as Newton per square meter.

If a force F acts on a surface area A, the pressure is calculated as:

[tex]\displaystyle P=\frac{F}{A}[/tex]

The pressure at a depth of 90 m is P=1 Mpa= 1,000,000 Pa and the submarine's window can only take a force of F=10 kN=10,000 N.

We need to calculate the largest surface area of the window. We can solve the equation for A:

[tex]\displaystyle A=\frac{F}{P}[/tex]

Substituting:

[tex]\displaystyle A=\frac{10,000}{1,000,000}[/tex]

[tex]A=0.01\ m^2[/tex]

The largest surface area window that can be used is [tex]\mathbf{A=0.01\ m^2}[/tex]

Interference can be described as a natural phenomenon that occurs at every place and at every moment. Interference can be defined as the phenomenon in which two waves superpose to produce the resultant wave of the lower, higher, or same amplitude. Light waves are produced randomly by most of the sources.

The interference of light from the soap bubble which reflects colors when illuminated by a light source. The starting point of the wave produced may be a maximum or a minimum,  and there is no way to predict which phase the wave will start.

Interference can either be constructive interference or destructive interference. Constructive interference occurs when the crest of one wave falls on the crest of another wave and the amplitude is maximum.

In destructive interference, when the crest of one wave falls on the trough of another wave and the amplitude is minimum. The phase and displacement of these waves are not the same.

Where:

[tex]\frac{dm}{dt}[/tex] - Rate of change of the mass of the radioactive material, measured in kilograms per second.

[tex]m[/tex] - Current mass of the radioactive material, measured in kilograms.

[tex]\lambda[/tex] - Decay constant, measured in [tex]\frac{1}{s}[/tex].

The solution of the differential equation is:

Where:

[tex]m_{o}[/tex] - Initial mass of the radioactive material, measured in kilograms.

If we know that [tex]m_{o} = 20\,kg[/tex], [tex]\lambda = 0.179\,\frac{1}{s}[/tex] and [tex]t = 300\,s[/tex], then the initial mass of the radioactive material is:
