Answer:
56 kg
Explanation:
The change in potential energy of the man is given by:
where
m is the man's mass
g is the gravitational acceleration
is the change in height of the man
In this problem, we have:
is the gain in potential energy
g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the gravitational acceleration
is the change in height
Re-arranging the equation and substituting the numbers, we find the mass:
Answer:
Upward force on the boy will be 1024 N
Explanation:
We have given mass of the boy m = 80 kg
Acceleration due to gravity
It is given that elevator is ascending with acceleration of
So net acceleration on the boy = 9.8+3 = 12.8 ( As the car elevator is moving ascending )
So upward force on the boy will be equal to F = m(g+a)
So
So upward force on the boy will be 1024 N
I would say B. Because actual mass would ricochet off the sidewalk.
