4. A 65 kg woman is inside an elevator. Calculate her apparent weight (Normal Force) for the following cases: a. The elevator moves at constant speed of 10 m/s downward (2 pts)
b. The elevator accelerates upward at a constant rate of 2.4 m/s2 (2 pts)
c. If the scale read 450 N. Find the magnitude and direction of the elevator’s acceleration. (3 pts)

Explanation:

a ) Let her apparent weight be W₁

Net force on her = W₁ - mg

acceleration a = 0

W₁ - mg  = 0

W₁   =   mg = 65 x 9.8 = 637 N  

b )

a = 2.4 m /s²

W₁ - mg  = ma

W₁  = m(g + a )

= 65 x ( 9.8 + 2.4 )

= 793 N

c )

W₁ = 450 N

a = ?

W₁ - mg  = ma

450 - 65 x 9.8 = 65 x a

65 a = - 187

a = - 2.87 m /s²

acceleration is negative therefore , it must be downwards   .

russian is not my first language, so i'm afraid i can't write out an answer in russian, but hopefully you can find a way to do so. here's my best translation of the problem: you're given a plot of a particle's position in one-dimensional space over time, and you're asked to find either the total distance traveled by the particle after 6 seconds had elapsed, or the total displacement of the particle after 6 seconds.

if you want the total distance traveled, you would first need to determine the particle's velocity as a function of time, then integrate that over the 6-second interval. we know the position function is quadratic with roots at 0 and 6, so we have

where is unknown. because the position is parabolic, there is symmetry about the midpoint at , and we know that

so that the position function is

which means the velocity is

then the total distance traveled is

so the total distance traveled is 20 m.

on the other hand, if you want to find displacement: the particle starts at and ends at , so its displacement is 0.

its lower due to the doppler effect.: apex
