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...

4. An 80-kg man stands in an elevator. What is his apparent weight when 1) the elevators stationary, IT) the elevator accelerates up at 2 m/s?. III) the elevator accelerates down at 2 m/s IV) the elevator cruises up at constant velocity of 1 m/s. A) Draw a free body diagram of the man labeling the two forces (n and weight) acting on him. B) Write Newton's 2nd law, just including the vertical components. C) Put the forces n...
A 75-kg person stands on a weight scale in an elevator and pushes the button to go up. The elevator accelerates upward at 3 m/s2, then rises at a steady speed of 15 m/s, and finally decelerates at the top floor at a rate of 2 m/s2. Match the force values to their descriptions. Some values may be used more than once, and some may not be used at all. 1. person's weight during upward acceleration 2. scale reading during...
A 72 kg man stands on a bathroom scale in an elevator. Starting from rest at the top floor, the elevator descends, attaining its maximum speed of 1.20 m/s in 0.80 s. It travels with this constant speed for the next 5.00 s. The elevator then slows down for 1.50 s and comes to rest at ground level. a)What is the acceleration of the man during the first 0.80 s? Answer in units of m/s2 and use the upward direction...
A 73.0-kg person stands on a scale in an elevator. What does the scale read (in N) when the elevator is at rest? What does the scale read (in N) when the elevator is climbing at a constant speed of 3.0 m/s? What does the scale read (in N) when the elevator is descending at 3.0 m/s? What does the scale read (in N) when the elevator is accelerating upward at 2.4 m/s2 ? What does the scale read (in...
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
A 78 kg man stands on a bathroom scale at the center of an elevator. As the elevator accelerates from rest downwards to -11.4 m/s in 3.04 s, what is the scale reading in Newtons?
A) 70 kg man s standing in an elevator. Find the reaction of the elevator on the man if a) the elevator is accelerating upward at 1.5 m/s^2 b) the elevator is accelerating downward at 1.5m/s^2 c) the elevator is descending at a constant velocity 3m/s. B) If the elevator and its contents has a total mass of 1500kg, and it is sup four cables each having a tension T. ? find the tension T IN EACH OF THE...
_ elevator platform scale 30. Using the above picture, a 90 kg person stands on a scale in an elevator a) Calculate weight of the person on the scale if the elevator is stationary. b) Calculate the weight of the person on the scale if the elevator is moving at constant velocity upward. c) Calculate the apparent weight of the person on the scale if the elevator is accelerating upward at 2m/s d) Calculate the apparent weight of the person...
