Consider a person standing in an elevator that is moving at a constant velocity down. The upward normal force N exerted by the elevator floor on the person is Select one: a. smaller than the downward force of gravity on the person. b. identical to the downward force of gravity on the person. c. larger than the downward force of gravity on the person.

b. identical to the downward force of gravity on the person.

Explanation:

For an object in an elevator,

F = mg - ma       (g > a)

But since the velocity is uniform, a = 0.

Then,

F = mg - 0

F = mg

This is the actual weight of the object.

The object does not feel weightless, so that its actual weight can be measured during the downward motion of the elevator with uniform velocity.

Thus, the upward normal force, N, exerted by the elevator floor on the person is identical to the downward force of gravity on the person.

a.metals can become magnetic if they have many spinning electrons that create magnetic fields.d.only some metals are attracted by magnets; these metals are called ferromagnetic.

d.wrapping an insulated wire around a metal with ferromagnetic properties and applying an electric current.

the answer would most likely be c, because if it's a comical piece of information, it may likely not be true, if it's a site that allows anybody to edit the content, it could mean a five year old is typing the info, and if it's a tv show produced by a celeb, it may have a biased opinion.
