The value of acceleration due to gravity (g) on Pluto is about 0.61 meters/second2. How much will an object that weighs 250 newt

ons on Earth weigh on Pluto? Note that the value of acceleration due to gravity on Earth is 9.8 meters/second2.

The weight of the object on pluto will be 15.56 N

<h3>What is Newton's law of gravitation?</h3>

Newton's law of gravity states that each particle having mass in the universe attracts each other particle with a force known as the gravitational force.

Given data;

\rm g_e is the acceleration due to gravity on earth.

m is the mass of an object

\rm g_p is the acceleration due to gravity on pluto.

\rm W_e is the weight of the object on earth

\rm W_ p is the weight of an object on pluto

The mass of the object on the earth's surface is found as;

We = m × ge

m = W / ge

m = 250 / 9.81

m = 25.51  kg

The weight of the object on pluto.

Wp = m × gp

Wp = 25.51  kg × 0.61  m/s²

Wp =15.56 N.

Hence the weight of the object on pluto will be 15.56 N

Holding onto a tow rope moving parallel to a frictionless ski slope, a 70.1 kg skier is pulled up the slope, which is at an angl
lara [203]

Answer:

given,

mass of the skier = 70.1 Kg

angle with horizontal, θ = 8.6°

magnitude of the force,F = ?

a) Applying newton's second law

   m g sin\theta - F_{rope} = ma

 velocity is constant, a = 0

   m g sin\theta - F_{rope} =0

   F_{rope} = m g sin\theta

   F_{rope} = 70.1\times 9.8\times sin 8.6^0

  F_{rope}= 102.73\ N

b) now, when acceleration, a = 0.135 m/s²

   F_{rope}-m g sin\theta = ma

 velocity is constant, a = 0.135 m/s₂

   F_{rope} = m g sin\theta+ma

   F_{rope} = 70.1\times 9.8\times sin 8.6^0+70.1\times 0.135

  F_{rope}= 112.19\ N

dexar [7]

A car of mass 1535 kg collides head-on with a parked truck of mass 2000 kg. Spring mounted bumpers ensure that the collision is essentially elastic. If the velocity of the truck is 17 km/h (in the same direction as the car's initial velocity) after the collision, what was the initial speed of the car <u>20kmh</u>

<h3>What is collision ?</h3>

A collision in physics is any situation in which two or more bodies quickly exert forces on one another. Despite the fact that the most common usage of the word "collision" refers to situations in which two or more objects clash violently, the scientific usage of the word makes no such assumptions.

The following are a few instances of physical encounters that scientists might classify as collisions:

  • Legs of an insect are said to collide with a leaf when it falls on one.
  • Every contact of a cat's paws with the ground while it strides across a lawn is seen as a collision, as is every brush of its fur with a blade of grass.
