Weight = 55 * 9.8 = 539 N
Scale = 686 N
Since the scale reading is larger than the lady’s weight, the elevator must be accelerating as it moves upward.
Net upward force = 686 – 539 = 147 N
147 = 55 * a
a = 147 ÷ 55
The acceleration is approximately 2.67 m/s^2.

Hence, Option (C) is correct.
What is conductor?Materials that easily permit the flow of electricity are referred to be electrical conductors. Conductivity is the quality of conductors that enables them to conduct electricity.
Electric current is the name given to the movement of electrons through conductor. Voltage is the amount of power necessary to cause that current to flow through the conductor.
Such an element receives a charge that is dispersed along its entire surface, causing the electrons inside the element to migrate. Charges are transferred to an electrical conductor, and they disperse until the minimal force of repulsion between electrons in locations of excess electrons. Such an item transfers its charge to another conductor when it comes into contact with it, reducing the overall repulsion caused by charge in the process.

A 0.60-kg mass at the end of a spring vibrates 3.0 times per second with and amplitude of 0.13m. Determine
(a) The velocity when it passes the equilibrium point,
(b) The velocity when it is 0.10 m from equilibrium
(c) The total energy of the system, and
(d) The equation describing the motion of the mass, assuming the x was a maximum at t = 0.
Answer:
a) The velocity when it passes the equilibrium point is [tex]\pm 2.451[/tex] meters per second.
b) The velocity when it is 0.10 meters from equilibrium is [tex]\pm 1.567[/tex] meters per second.
c) The total energy of the system is 1.802 joules.
d) The equation describing the motion of the mass, assuming that initial position is a maximum is [tex]x(t) = 0.13\cdot \sin (18.850\cdot t +0.5\pi)[/tex].
Explanation:
a) If all non-conservative forces can be neglected and spring has no mass, then the mass-spring system exhibits a simple harmonic motion (SHM). The kinematic formula for the position of the system ([tex]x(t)[/tex]), measured in meters, is:
[tex]x(t) = A\cdot \sin(\omega \cdot t +\phi)[/tex] (1)
Where:
[tex]A[/tex] - Amplitude, measured in meters.
[tex]\omega[/tex] - Angular frequency, measured in radians per second.
[tex]t[/tex] - Time, measured in seconds.
[tex]\phi[/tex] - Phase, measured in radians.
The kinematic equation for the velocity formula of the system ([tex]v(t)[/tex]), measured in meters per second, is derived from (1) by deriving it in time:
[tex]v(t) = \omega\cdot A\cdot \cos (\omega\cdot t+\phi)[/tex] (2)
The velocity when it passes the equilibrium point occurs when the cosine function is equal to 1 or -1. Then, that velocity is determined by following formula:
[tex]v = \pm \omega\cdot A[/tex] (3)
The angular frequency is calculated by this expression:
[tex]\omega = 2\pi\cdot f[/tex] (4)
Where [tex]f[/tex] is the frequency, measured in hertz.
If we know that [tex]f = 3\,hz[/tex] and [tex]A = 0.13\,m[/tex], then the velocity when it passes the equilibrium point, which is the maximum and minimum velocities of the mass:
[tex]\omega = 2\pi\cdot (3\,hz)[/tex]
[tex]\omega \approx 18.850\,\frac{rad}{s}[/tex]
[tex]v = \pm \left(18.850\,\frac{rad}{s} \right)\cdot (0.13\,m)[/tex]
[tex]v = \pm 2.451\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex]
The velocity when it passes the equilibrium point is [tex]\pm 2.451[/tex] meters per second.
b) First, we need to determine the spring constant of the system ([tex]k[/tex]), measured in newtons per meter, in terms of the angular frequency ([tex]\omega[/tex]), measured in radians per second, and mass ([tex]m[/tex]), measured in kilograms. That is:
[tex]k = \omega^{2}\cdot m[/tex] (5)
If we know that [tex]\omega \approx 18.850\,\frac{rad}{s}[/tex] and [tex]m = 0.60\,kg[/tex], then the spring constant is:
[tex]k = \left(18.850\,\frac{rad}{s} \right)^{2}\cdot (0.60\,kg)[/tex]
[tex]k = 213.194\,\frac{N}{m}[/tex]
Lastly, we determine the velocity when the mass is 0.10 meters from equilibrium by the Principle of Energy Conservation:
[tex]U_{k} + K = K_{max}[/tex] (6)
[tex]\frac{1}{2}\cdot k\cdot x^{2} + \frac{1}{2}\cdot m\cdot v^{2} = \frac{1}{2}\cdot m\cdot v_{max}^{2}[/tex] (7)
Where:
[tex]U_{k}[/tex] - Current elastic potential energy, measured in joules.
[tex]K[/tex] - Current translational kinetic energy, measured in joules.
[tex]K_{max}[/tex] - Maximum translational kinetic energy, measured in joules.
[tex]v[/tex] - Current velocity of the system, measured in meters per second.
[tex]m[/tex] - Mass, measured in kilograms.
[tex]v_{max}[/tex] - Maximum velocity of the system, measured in meters per second.
If we know that [tex]k = 213.194\,\frac{N}{m}[/tex], [tex]x = 0.10\,m[/tex], [tex]m = 0.60\,kg[/tex] and [tex]v_{max} = \pm 2.451\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex], then the velocity of the mass-spring system is:
[tex]\frac{k}{m} \cdot x^{2} + v^{2} = v_{max}^{2}[/tex]
[tex]v^{2} = v_{max}^{2}-\frac{k}{m}\cdot x^{2}[/tex]
[tex]v = \sqrt{v_{max}^{2}-\frac{k\cdot x^{2}}{m} }[/tex] (8)
[tex]v = \sqrt{\left(\pm 2.451\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}-\frac{\left(213.194\,\frac{N}{m} \right)\cdot (0.10\,m)^{2}}{0.60\,kg} }[/tex]
[tex]v \approx \pm 1.567\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex]
The velocity when it is 0.10 meters from equilibrium is [tex]\pm 1.567[/tex] meters per second.
c) The total energy of the system ([tex]E[/tex]), measured in joules, can be determined by the following expression derived from the Principle of Energy Conservation:
[tex]E = \frac{1}{2}\cdot m\cdot v_{max}^{2}[/tex] (9)
If we know that [tex]m = 0.60\,kg[/tex] and [tex]v_{max} = \pm 2.451\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex], then the total energy of the system is:
[tex]E = \frac{1}{2}\cdot (0.60\,kg)\cdot \left(\pm 2.451\,\frac{m}{s}\right)^{2}[/tex]
[tex]E = 1.802\,J[/tex]
The total energy of the system is 1.802 joules.
d) Given that initial position of the mass-spring system is a maximum, then we conclude that the equation of motion has the following parameters: ([tex]A = 0.13\,m[/tex], [tex]\omega \approx 18.850\,\frac{rad}{s}[/tex] and [tex]\phi = 0.5\pi\,rad[/tex])
From (1) we obtain the resulting formula:
[tex]x(t) = 0.13\cdot \sin (18.850\cdot t +0.5\pi)[/tex] (10)
The equation describing the motion of the mass, assuming that initial position is a maximum is [tex]x(t) = 0.13\cdot \sin (18.850\cdot t +0.5\pi)[/tex].

Many curves have banked turns, which allow the cars to travel faster around the curves than if the road were flat. Acutally, cars could also make turns on these banked curves if there were no friction at all. Explain this statement using the free-body diagram shown in the figure.
Answer:
the normal force that is perpendicular to the surface has a component towards the center of the curve.
Explanation:
When curves with superelevation or inclination, the normal force that is perpendicular to the surface has a component towards the center of the curve. This component is what maintains the vehicle and gives it centripetal acceleration.
Consequently, the vehicle does not need the friction force since it does not have a tendency to slide and this is zero.

A rectangular block measures 4.1cm by 2.8cm by 2.1cm. calculate its volume given you answer to an appropriate number of significant figures?
Answer:
Volume = 24 cm^3
Explanation:
We recall that the volume of the box is calculated via the formula:
Volume = length * height * width
and that in a product, the number of significant figures for the result should coincide with the number of significant figures of the factor that has the least of them.
In this case, all measures have the same number of significant figures: two. so we calculate the product, and then limit the answer value to exactly two significant figures:
Volume = 4.1 cm * 2.8 cm * 2.1 cm = 24.108 cm^3, which must be rounded to two significant figures as: 24 cm^3
Answer:
Volume = 24.108cm³
Explanation:
Volume = length × breadth × height
Volume = 4.1 × 2.8 × 2.1
Volume = 24.108

D. The bag provides the necessary force to stop the person.
E. The bag decreases the amount of time during which the momentum is changing and reduces the average force on the person.
Answer:
A stunt person jumps from the roof of a tall building, but no injury occurs because the person lands on a large, air-filled bag. Which one of the following best describes why no injury occurs?
The bag increases the amount of time during which the momentum is changing and reduces the average force on the person.
ANSWER: A
Answer:
A. The bag increases the amount of time during which the momentum is changing and reduces the average force on the person.
During stunts, people usually put an-air filled bag on the ground for safe landing and to prevent injuries.
Momentum is calculated by m* v where m is for mass and v is for velocity.
Force is directly proportional to momentum
F∝M
The bag in this scenario helps to increases the amount of time the force acts on the person. This implication means that there is a reduction in the change of momentum. Since Force and momentum have a directly proportional relationship then the Force taken to hit the floor is greatly reduced.

Explanation:
This problem asks for some experimental explanations of various quantum phenomena.
3A. This phenomenon can be seen in the discrete emission of the molecules.
In the classical explanation all states or energies are allowed, therefore when emitting energy (photons) there should be a continuum, this is not observed
In the correct quantum explanation only some states are allowed, therefore the emission must be discrete, which is observed in the emission or absorption of molecules and atoms
3B. The emotion of the atoms is observed, from states high in energy to a state of minimum energy that is stable indefinitely.
The incorrect classical explanation that if the minimum energy was zero the electrons cannot rotate around the nuclei and the atom collapses, this does not happen
3C. When an electron beam passes through an inhomogeneous magnetic field, it is divided into only two beams, which is evidence of the existence of two discrete states that we call spin, remember that a free electron beam has zero angular momentum.
3D. This is due to the stimulated emission that occurs when a photon passes through the emission zone, causing the atoms to have transitions and these emitted photons have the same initial photon location, the laser beam all photons are in phase and therefore it is coherent .
This is widely used for holographic and interference work

A child of mass m is at the edge of a merry-go-round of diameter d. When the merry-go-round is rotating with angular acceleration α, the torque on the child is τ. The child moves to a position half way between the center and edge of the merry-go-round, and the angular acceleration increases to 2α. The torque on the child is now
Answer:
The torque on the child is now the same, τ.
Explanation:
It can be showed that the external torque applied by a net force on a rigid body, is equal to the product of the moment of inertia of the body with respect to the axis of rotation, times the angular acceleration.In this case, as the movement of the child doesn't create an external torque, the torque must remain the same.The moment of inertia is the sum of the moment of inertia of the merry-go-round (the same that for a solid disk) plus the product of the mass of the child times the square of the distance to the center.When the child is standing at the edge of the merry-go-round, the moment of inertia is as follows:[tex]I_{to} = I_{d} + m*r^{2} = m*\frac{r^{2}}{2} + m*r^{2} = \frac{3}{2}* m*r^{2} (1)[/tex]
So, τ = 3/2*m*r²*α (2)When the child moves to a position half way between the center and the edge of the merry-go-round, the moment of inertia of the child decreases, as the distance to the center is less than before, as follows:[tex]I_{t} = I_{d} + m*\frac{r^{2}}{4} = m*\frac{r^{2}}{2} + m*\frac{r^{2}}{4} = \frac{3}{4}* m*r^{2} (3)[/tex]
Since the angular acceleration increases from α to 2*α, we can write the torque expression as follows:τ = 3/4*m*r² * (2α) = 3/2*m*r²
same result than in (2), so the torque remains the same.

A 782-kg satellite is in a circular orbit about Earth at a height above Earth equal to Earth's mean radius. (a) Find the satellite's orbital speed. 9.82278e7 Incorrect: Your answer is incorrect. Your response differs significantly from the correct answer. Rework your solution from the beginning and check each step carefully. m/s (b) Find the period of its revolution. h (c) Find the gravitational force acting on it.
Answer:
a) v = 5.59x10³ m/s
b) T = 4 h
c) F = 1.92x10³ N
Explanation:
a) We can find the satellite's orbital speed by equating the centripetal force and the gravitation force as follows:
[tex] F_{c} = F_{G} [/tex]
[tex]\frac{mv^{2}}{r + h} = \frac{GMm}{(r + h)^{2}}[/tex]
[tex] v = \sqrt{\frac{gr^{2}}{r+h} [/tex]
Where:
g is the gravity = 9.81 m/s²
r: is the Earth's radius = 6371 km
h: is the satellite's height = r = 6371 km
[tex]v = \sqrt{\frac{gr^{2}}{2r}} = \sqrt{\frac{gr}{2}} = \sqrt{\frac{9.81 m/s^{2}*6.371 \cdot 10^{6} m}{2}} = 5.59 \cdot 10^{3} m/s[/tex]
b) The period of its revolution is:
[tex] T = \frac{2\pi}{\omega} = \frac{2\pi (r + h)}{v} = \frac{2\pi (2*6.371 \cdot 10^{6} m)}{5.59 \cdot 10^{3} m/s} = 14322.07 s = 4 h [/tex]
c) The gravitational force acting on it is given by:
[tex] F = \frac{GMm}{(r + h)^{2}} [/tex]
Where:
M is the Earth's mass = 5.97x10²⁴ kg
m is the satellite's mass = 782 kg
G is the gravitational constant = 6.67x10⁻¹¹ Nm²kg⁻²
[tex] F = \frac{GMm}{(r + h)^{2}} = \frac{6.67 \cdot 10^{-11} Nm^{2}kg^{-2}*5.97 \cdot 10^{24} kg*782 kg}{(2*6.371 \cdot 10^{6} m)^{2}} = 1.92 \cdot 10^{3} N [/tex]
