Your weight on the moon given the data from the question is 110.5 N

<h3>Definition of mass and weight </h3>

Mass is simply defined as the quantity of matter present in an object. The mass of an object is constant irrespective of the location of the object.

Weight is simply defined as the gravitational pull on an object. The weight of an object varies from place to place due to gravity.

<h3>Relationship between mass and weight </h3>

Mass and weight are related according to the following equation

Weight (W) = mass (m) × Acceleration due to gravity (g)

<h3>How to determine the weight on the moon</h3>

Mass (m) = 65 Kg
Acceleration due to gravity on the moon (g) = 1.7 m/s²
Weight (W) =?

W = mg

W = 65 × 1.7

W = 110.5 N

in 1984 don, disk that stayed aloft for 16.7 seonds supsuppose cain ran up a staricase during this time, reachig a height of 18.

laila [671]

Answer

given,

time of disk stayed a loft = 16.7 sec

height reached = 18.4 m

mass = 72 kg

now work done is equal to change in potential energy

$W = - (U_f - U_i)$

$W = - (mgh - 0)$

$W = - (72\times (-9.8) \times 18.4)$

W = 12983.04 J

Positive sign means that work is in the direction of motion.

$Power = \dfrac{Work\ done}{time}$

$Power = \dfrac{W}{t}$

$Power = \dfrac{12983.04}{16.7}$

P = 777.42 Watts

How much potential energy foes a 5kg mass have when its 2 meters above the ground?(Hint :PE=m*g*h)

frez [133]

Answer:

Explanation:

The potential energy of a body can be found by using the formula

PE = mgh

where

m is the mass

h is the height

g is the acceleration due to gravity which is 9.8 m/s²

From the question we have

PE = 5 × 9.8 × 2

We have the final answer as

A basketball player makes a jump shot. The 0.599 kg ball is released at a height of 2.18 m above the floor with a speed of 7.05

7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

$W_{drag} = 4.223\,J$

Explanation:

The situation can be described by the Principle of Energy Conservation and the Work-Energy Theorem:

$U_{g,A}+K_{A} = U_{g,B} + K_{B} + W_{drag}$

The work done on the ball due to drag is:

$W_{drag} = (U_{g,A}-U_{g,B})+(K_{A}-K_{B})$

$W_{drag} = m\cdot g\cdot (h_{A}-h_{B})+ \frac{1}{2}\cdot m \cdot (v_{A}^{2}-v_{B}^{2})$

$W_{drag} = (0.599\,kg)\cdot (9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} )\cdot (2.18\,m-3.10\,m)+\frac{1}{2}\cdot (0.599\,kg)\cdot [(7.05\,\frac{m}{s} )^{2}-(4.19\,\frac{m}{s} )^{2}]$

$W_{drag} = 4.223\,J$

Q15.17 Both wave intensity and gravitation obey inverse-square laws. Do they do so for the same reason?Discuss the reason for ea

s2008m [1.1K]

(a) Intensity obeys inverse square law from basis of light passing through a given surface.

(b) Gravitation obeys inverse square law from the basis of force between two masses.

<h3>What is intensity?</h3>

Intensity is the ratio is ratio of power to area of a given surface.

I = P/A (W/m²)

where;

P is power
A is area

<h3>Universal gravitation law</h3>

$F = \frac{Gm_1m_2}{r^2}$

Intensity and gravitation do not obey inverse square law for same reason;

Intensity obeys inverse square law from basis of light passing through a given surface.
Gravitation obeys inverse square law from the basis of force between two masses.

<h3>Acceleration of the block</h3>

a = v²/A

a = (3.9²)/0.12

a = 126.75 m/s²
