Elizabeth, with a mass of 56.1kg stands on a scale in an elevator. Total mass of elevator plus Elizabeth=850kg. As the elevator starts moving, the scale reads 450N. Find the acceleration and tension in the cable.

acceleration = 1.79 m/s^2

Tension = 6817 N

Explanation:

First let's find Elizabeth's weight:

Her weight is greater than the normal force (N = 450 N), so the elevator is going downwards.

The acceleration of Elizabeth is given by:

Where P is the weight of Elisabeth, N is her normal force, m is her mass and a is the acceleration. Then, we have that:

The tension in the cable is given by:

In this case, we use the total mass, so we have:

the journeys of marquette, joliet and la salle a) new france expand.

all three of these explorers explored the midwest and the area around the great lakes, which they subsequently claimed for france.

this was a big portion of territory and expanded new france which before then only consisted of quebec province in northeastern canada

the answer is false. this is because for ice to melt, it requires latent heat of melting. latent heat means heat energy required to change phase without any increase in temperatures. therefore, the ice will take energy from the environment to melt hence atmospheric temperatures will reduce.
