A. 15 N
39)

40)
An elevator weighing 2.00 c 10^5 N is supported
by a steel cable…
Fw = mass * gravitational acceleration
2*10^5 = mass * 9.8
mass of the elevator = 20.4*10^3 kg
Fnet = Tension – Fw
mass * acceleration = Tension – 2*10^5
20.4*10^3 * 3 = Tension – 2*10^5
61200 = Tension – 2*10^5
Tension = (61200) + (2*10^5)
Tension = 2.61 * 10^5 newton
41)
A bullet with a mass of 6.00 g is fired through
a 1.25 kg block of wood on a frictionless surface.
0.006(896) + 0 = 0.006(435) + 1.25(V)
5.376 + 0 = 2.61 + 1.25(V)
5.376 = 2.61 + 1.25(V)
2.766 = 1.25(V)
V = 2.21 m/s

Find the final equilibrium temperature when 10.0
g of milk at 10.0C is added to 1.60 x 10^2 g of coffee with a temperature of
90.0C.
Heat lost = heat gained
X = equilibrium temperature
Heat lost = 160(90-x)
Heat gained = 10(x-10)
14400 – 160x = 10x -100
170x = 14500
X = 14500/170
X = 85.25 degrees
