A student is trying to find the force on a person at the top of a Ferris wheel, and writes the equation S + mg = mv 2/r. What would you say about that?   A Yes, that’s correct.   B Close, but it should be written S - mg = mv2/r.   C Close, but it should be written mg - S = mv2/r.

A converging lens has a focal length of 20.0 cm. Locate the image for object distances of (a) 40.0 cm, (b)20.0 cm, and (c) 10.0 cm. For each case, state whether the image is real or virtual and upright or inverted.Find the magnification in each case.

A 7.8 kg object undergoes an acceleration of 2.9 m/s^2 A. What is the magnitude of the resultant force acting on it? N B. If this same force is applied to a 4.7kg object, what acceleration is produced? m/s^2

O The net force along the x-component is zero. O The acceleration along the y-component is non-zero. O The acceleration along the y-component is zero. O The acceleration along the x-component is non-zero. O The net force along the y-component is zero. O The net force along the x-component is non-zero.

A 8 kg decoration hangs from the ceiling. It is suspended by 2 wires. The first wire forms a 40⁰ angle with the ceiling. The second wire forms a 50⁰ angle with the ceiling.a. Find the tension in the 2 wires (including magnitude and direction) b. Assuming the wire that forms the 40⁰ angle with the ceiling has a length of 0.3 metres, how farbelow the ceiling is the decoration suspended?

A cardboard box rests on the floor of an elevator. The box has a mass m = 2.75 kg and the elevator has an upward acceleration of a.   a.  Write an expression for the sum of the forces acting on the box in the y-direction, ΣFy, given that up is the positive y-direction. Your answer should be in terms of FN, m, and g.  b. Write an expression for the normal force, FN, that the block experiences in terms of the elevator's acceleration, the block's mass, and the acceleration of gravity.  c.  If the elevator's acceleration has a magnitude of g in the downward direction, what would the normal force, FN1 be in Newtons?  d.If the elevator's acceleration had a magnitude of g in the upward direction, what would the normal force FN2 be in Newtons?

A teenager of mass m1 = 56 kg pushes backwards against the ground with his foot as he rides his skateboard. This exerts a horizontal force of magnitude F foot = = 18.5 N. The skateboard has m2 = 2.6 kg. a. Write an expression for the magnitude of the horizontal component of force that the ground exerts on the teenagers foot, F ground. b. Write an expression in terms to given quantities for the magnitude of the skateboard acceleration, a , while the teenager is pushing backwards on the ground? c. What is the numerical value of the magnitude of the acceleration, a, in m/s square?
