The weight of a body is 147N. what is its mass?
1 answer:
<u>To find the mass, with only the weight</u>:
⇒ must consider the relationship between the mass and weight
⇒ (<em>in other words</em>) we must find the equation that has both the
mass and weight
<u>Based on our physics knowledge, we know</u>:
- Weight: 147N
- Gravitational Acceleration: 9.8 m/s²
<u>Now let's plug in the values, and solve</u>:
<u>Answer: 15 kg</u>
Hope that helps!
<em>*as a note, if you use the gravitational acceleration as 10m/s², then the answer would be 14.7 kg</em>

Explanation:
We are asked to find the final velocity of the boat.
We are given the initial velocity, acceleration, and time. Therefore, we will use the following kinematic equation.
The initial velocity is 2.7 meters per second. The acceleration is 0.15 meters per second squared. The time is 12 seconds.
= 2.7 m/s
- a= 0.15 m/s²
- t= 12 s
Substitute the values into the formula.
Multiply the numbers in parentheses.
Add.
The final velocity of the boat is <u>4.5 meters per second in the positive direction.</u>
