A student stands on a scale in an elevator at rest. He is on the 64th floor of a building. The balance shows 836N. A.) The elevator moves up, the reading rises to 936N and then drops to 836N. Find the acceleration of the elevator.
B.)As you approach the 74th floor, the reading drops to 782N. What is the acceleration of the elevator now?
C.) What changes would you expect in the readings on the way down?

1. consider the case in which air fills air shocks on a truck trailer. the pressure in the shocks is 2 mpa. the temperature is 300 k. the diameter of the shock piston is 10 cm and the initial length of the cylindrical cavity containing the compressed air is 40 cm. a. the truck is gradually loaded over a period of a day in a static setting. the temperature is held constant for the atmosphere and thus for the gas shock. calculate the compressibility of the air in the shock for this condition when the truck is initially being loaded. b. if the shocks were loaded in a dynamic setting by driving over bumps, what would be the compressibility? state your assumption. c. what is the initial load on the shock if the shock is in an atmospheric 100 kpa? d. if the shock is compressed using the process described in part a, and the air shock compressed air cavity length decreases to 20 cm, what is the additional load applied to the shock?

Object a has a length of 3 cm, a width of 2 cm, and a height of 4 cm. object b is dropped into a graduated cylinder. it displaces 19 ml of water. the volume of object a is: a: greater than the volume of object b b: less than the volume of object b c: equal to the volume of object b

Assume that two of the electrons at the negative terminal have attached themselves to a nearby neutral atom. there is now a negative ion with a charge -2e at this terminal. what are the electric potential and electric potential energy of the negative ion relative to the electron? the electric potential and the electric potential energy are both twice as much. the electric potential is twice as much and the electric potential energy is the same. the electric potential is the same and the electric potential energy is twice as much. the electric potential and the electric potential energy are both the same. the electric potential is the same and the electric potential energy is increased by the mass ratio of the oxygen ion to the electron. the electric potential is twice as much and the electric potential energy is increased by the mass ratio of the oxygen ion to the electron.
