2. A man is standing on a scale that reads out his apparent weight in Newtons in an accelerating elevator. If the scale reads that he weighs 1200N while the elevator is accelerating and his mass is 79kg, what is the acceleration of the elevator? (Up is positive) a. 4.7 m/s b. -5.4 m/s c. +5.4 m/s? d. -9.8 m/s e. +4.7 m/s? f. O m/s2
A 96.5-kg person stands on a scale in an elevator. What is the apparent weight when the elevator is (a) accelerating upward with an acceleration of 1.57 m/s2, (b) moving upward at a constant speed, and (c) accelerating downward with an acceleration of 1.79 m/s2?
A 86.8-kg person stands on a scale in an elevator. What is the apparent weight when the elevator is (a) accelerating upward with an acceleration of 1.72 m/s2, (b) moving upward at a constant speed, and (c) accelerating downward with an acceleration of 1.67 m/s2? (a) Number Units (b) Number Units (c) Number Units
E. Suppose you are standing on the scale in the elevator and the
elevator is accelerating downward with
an acceleration smaller than 9.8 m/s2
i. Draw free-body diagrams of yourself, the scale, and the floor
of the elevator where it interacts
with the scale.
ii. How must the magnitude of the force exerted by the scale on
you compare with your own
weight?
iii. How must the reading on the scale compare with the reading
you make when the elevator...
A heavy man’s resting weight is 1029 N. He is standing on a scale on an elevator that has a mass (without the man) of 1250 kg. While the elevator is in motion the man’s apparent weight reads 1134 N. The tension on the cable supporting the elevator is (in N)? The answer is 14,634 N but I do not know how to get the answer. Please provide a detailed explanation.
I need hep figuring out these three problems
Force 3 Total 10 3. In the system shown in Figure, a horizontal force Fx-30N acts on an object of mass m,=10kg. The horizontal surface is frictionless. m, 3kg, (a) Find and draw all the forces using free body diagram for each boxes. (b) build equations for both using Newton's 2nd law for both objects. (c) solve the equations to find the acceleration of both objects. (d) solve the equations to find...
V. ELEVATOR REVIEW A man stands on a scale in an elevator. The elevator moves downwards at a velocity of 10 m/s. The elevator accelerates “pwards at a rate of 5 m/s.. The scale under the man reads 180 lbs. A. Is the elevator slowing down or speeding up? B. Given that 1 pound 4.5 Newtons, compute the man's mass? HINT: normal force is not necessarily cqual to weight. You have to usc NII C. The elevator reaches a complete...
Interactive Exercises 5.07: Normal Force and Accelerating Particle For a physics class experiment, you place a Red Delicious apple (mass m = 0.100 kg) at rest on a bathroom scale, and place the combination on the floor of an elevator in a tall building. The elevator is initially at rest-see Interactive Fig. 5.7.1 Cable ty Elevator Apple Bathroom scales Interactive Figure 5.7.1: An apple sits on a bathroom scale that rests on the floor of an elevator. Initially, the elevator...
Suppose Arturo is standing on a spring bathroom scale in an elevator, which is at rest, on the 15th floor. What is his acceleration? What forces are acting on him? What is the reading (in Newtons) on the bathroom scale if he has a mass of 150 kg? (Draw it out and Label it) Now imagine disaster - the rope holding the elevator snaps, there are no safety features, and the elevator plunges down the shaft in free fall. Herrera...

2 Indoor Climbing (10) Joff climbs up a wall at an indoor climbing gym using an auto belay-device. The auto-belny device exerts an upward force equivalent to the weight of 10kg of mass, in order to quickly take up slack while climbing. Joff weighs 700 N and climbs upward with a constant speed of 0.50 m/s. a) What is his acceleration? b) What force pushes Joll up the wall while he climbs? Why? c) Sketch a...
