A cardboard box rests on the floor of an elevator. The box has a mass m = 3.75 kg and the elevator has an upward acceleration of a

Part a. Select the Free Body Diagram for the system
Part b. Write an expression for the sum of the forces actinv on the box in the y direcion, given that up is the positive y direction. Your answer should be in terms of FN, m, g.
Part c. Write an expression for the normal force FN, that the block experiences in terms of the elevator's accelaration, the block's mass and the accelaration of gravity
Part d. If the elevator's accelaration has a magnitude of g in the downward direction, what would the normal force FN1 be in Newtons? (Numerical value)
Part e. If the elevator's accelaration had a magnitude of g in the upward direction, what would the normal force FN2 ve in Newtons? (Numerical value)

Andre45 [30]
The Answer is B: 2,125 cm²


n = 7
a = 24.18 cm
r = 25.1051 cm
R = 27.8646 cm
A = 2124.65 cm²
P = 169.26 cm
x = 128.571 °
y = 51.4286 °


Agenda:
r = inradius (apothem)
R = circumradius 
a = side length
n = number of sides
x = interior angle
y = exterior angle 
A = area
P = perimeter
π = pi = 3.14159...

min is 1.5-0.2=1.3cm

max is 0.2+1.5=1.7cm

so it would be a graph from 1.3cm to 1.7cm

The price of a ring was increased by 9% to £1800. What was the price before the increase? Give your answer to the nearest penny.
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

1651

Step-by-step explanation:

let s say that the price before the increase is x

to apply an increase of 9% it does x + x*0.09 = x*(1+0.09)=x*1.09

and we know that this value is 1800

so

x*1.09=1800

<=>

x = 1800/1.09=1651.376147

to the nearest penny it gives 1651

S = d/t

st = d

t = d/s

The time going is t1.
The time returning is t2.
The total time is 4 hours, so we have t1 + t2 = 4

The speed of the current is c.
The speed going is 9 + c.
The speed returning is 9 - c.

t1 = 16/(9 + c)

t2 = 16/(9 - c)

t1 + t2 = 16/(9 + c) + 16/(9 - c)

4 = 16/(9 - c) + 16/(9 + c)

1 = 4/(9 - c) + 4/(9 + c)

(9 + c)(9 - c) = 4(9 - c) + 4(9 + c)

81 - c^2 = 36 - 4c + 36 + 4c

81 - c^2 = 72

c^2 = 9

c^2 - 9 = 0

(c + 3)(c - 3) = 0

c + 3 = 0   or   c - 3 = 0

c = -3   or   c = 3

We discard the negative answer, and we get c = 3.

The speed of the current is 3 mph.
