How does your weight mass and the normal force exerted by the floor change when you are in an elevator that starts from rest and accelerates upward?
When you are in an elevator that starts from rest and accelerates upward, your weight (mass times gravitational acceleration) remains constant because your mass does not change. However, the normal force exerted by the floor increases during the upward acceleration. This is because the elevator's acceleration adds to the gravitational force, resulting in a greater normal force acting on you, which can be felt as an increase in apparent weight.
What two forces act on you while your in a moving elevator?
1). gravitational attraction between you and the earth 2). upward "normal" force exerted by the floor on the bottom of your feet These are the same forces that act on you while you're standing on anything, whether it's moving or not.
Definition of normal force?
The normal force is the force exerted by a surface on an object in contact with it, perpendicular to the surface. It is equal in magnitude and opposite in direction to the force the object exerts on the surface due to Newton's third law.
If An object will accelerate in the direction of the net force balanced force normal forces?
If the object accelerates, that means the forces are NOT balanced.
What are the forces in net force?
Any time an object's velocity changes (the object "accelerates"), that is due to a net force. Here are some examples: * A car speeds up. The force is exerted by the tires, on the road. * A car slows down. The force is exerted by the tires, on the road, or by air resistance. * A car moves in a curve (its velocity changes too, since it changes direction). The force is exerted by the tires, on the road. * A planet moves around the Sun. The velocity changes all the time, since the direction changes. The force is exerted by gravity. * A falling object speeds up. The force is exerted by gravity.
Why does ascending in an elevator makes you feel heavier and descending in it makes you lighter?
When the elevator accelerates upwards, it pushes you against the floor, increasing the normal force acting on you, making you feel heavier. When the elevator descends and decelerates, there is less normal force acting on you, so you feel lighter.
What are the key components and forces involved in an elevator free body diagram?
In an elevator free body diagram, the key components are the elevator itself, the tension in the supporting cable, the force of gravity acting on the elevator and its occupants, and the normal force exerted by the floor of the elevator. The forces involved include the tension in the cable, the force of gravity pulling the elevator down, and the normal force pushing the elevator and its occupants up.
What two forces act on you while your in a moving elevator?
1). gravitational attraction between you and the earth 2). upward "normal" force exerted by the floor on the bottom of your feet These are the same forces that act on you while you're standing on anything, whether it's moving or not.
When going up in an elevator your weight reported by a scale increases?
Not really. It is not the fact of GOING UP that makes your apparent weight increase, but the fact that it is ACCELERATING UPWARD. For example, while the elevator goes up at a constant speed, your apparent weight will be the same as if it weren't moving.
What is the relationship between the normal force and the apparent weight of an object in an elevator?
The normal force in an elevator is equal to the apparent weight of an object. As the elevator moves up or down, the normal force changes, affecting the apparent weight experienced by the object.
What are examples of normal force?
Examples of normal force include the force exerted by a surface to support an object placed on it, such as the force exerted by the ground on a person standing, or the force exerted by a bookshelf on a book placed on it.
Do things weigh more when moving in elevators?
Yes objects do weigh more whilst moving in elevators. This is due to energy mass equivalence that Einstein detailed through the well-known e=mc2 equation. An object in an elevator is moving and therefore has kinetic energy, which translates into more mass. This increase, however, is extremely minute and not measureable with normal scales (even down to .000001 of a pound) because the mass increase is the amount of energy divided by 8.98755179 × 1016 (the speed of light squared).
What are the two forces acting on you in an elevator?
1). The force of gravity attracts you downward. 2). The floor of the elevator car exerts an upward force on the bottom of your feet. When #1 is greater than #2, you accelerate downward, and you feel lighter than normal. That happens when the car is starting to go down, or finishing going up. When #2 is greater than #1, you accelerate upward, and you feel heavier than normal. That happens when the car is starting to go up, or finishing going down. When #1 and #2 are equal, you don't accelerate at all, and your weight feels normal. That happens when the car is standing still, or rising at a steady speed, or dropping at a steady speed.
What is an object that is moving in a curve accelerates in a centripetal force?
An object moving in a curve accelerates due to a centripetal force acting towards the center of the circle. This force is necessary to keep the object moving in a circular path and is provided by either friction, tension, gravity, or a normal force. The acceleration of the object is always perpendicular to its velocity, causing a change in direction without a change in speed.
How do you make a elevator in minecraft?
You simply cant in normal gameplay but there are lots of mods for it.
When elevator move down with acceleration pendulum of bob what is effect on time period?
When the elevator starts moving down, the time period increases. But when the elevator is descending at a constant velocity, the time period returns to its normal.
What is the normal force exerted by the table on a block when a downward force is applied to the block while it is at rest on the table?
The normal force exerted by the table on a block at rest is equal in magnitude but opposite in direction to the downward force applied to the block.
