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

6.If a 250. gram cart moving to the right with a velocity of .31 m/s collides inelastically with a 500. gram cart traveling to t
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

The total momentum of the system before the collision is 0.0325 kg-m/s due east direction.    

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the cart, m = 250 g = 0.25 kg

Initial velocity of the cart, u = 0.31 m/s (due right)

Mass of another cart, m' = 500 g = 0.5 kg

Initial velocity of the another cart u' = -0.22 m/s (due left)

Let p is the total momentum of the system before the collision. It is given by :

p=mu+m'u'\\\\p=0.25\times 0.31+0.5\times (-0.22)\\\\p=-0.0325\ kg-m/s

So, the total momentum of the system before the collision is 0.0325 kg-m/s due east direction.

A recent home energy bill indicates that a household used 475475 kWh (kilowatt‑hour) of electrical energy and 135135 therms for
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,.

A house hold power consumption is

475 KWh

Gas used is

135 thermal gas for month

Given that, 1 thermal = 29.3 KWh

Then,

135 thermal = 135 × 29.3 = 3955.5 KWh

So, total power used is

P = 475 + 3955.5

P =4430.5 KWh

Since 1 hr = 3600 seconds

So, the energy consumed for 1hr is

1KW = 1000W

P = energy / time

Energy = Power × time

E = 4430.5 KWhr × 1000W / KW × 3600s / hr

E = 1.595 × 10^10 J

So, using Albert Einstein relativity equation

E = mc²

m = E / c²

c is speed of light = 3 × 10^8 m/s

m = 1.595 × 10^10 / (3 × 10^8)²

m = 1.77 × 10^-7 kg

Then,

1 kg = 10^6 mg

m = 1.77 × 10^-7 kg × 10^6 mg / kg

m = 0.177mg

m ≈ 0.18 mg

Paola can flex her legs from a bent position through a distance of 20.1 cm. Paola leaves the ground when her legs are straight,
makkiz [27]

The third equation of free fall can be applied to determine the acceleration. So that Paola's acceleration during the flight is 39.80 m/s^{2}.

Acceleration is a quantity that has a direct relationship with velocity and also inversely proportional to the time taken. It is a vector quantity.

To determine Paola's acceleration, the third equation of free fall is appropriate.

i.e V^{2} = U^{2} ± 2as

where: V is the final velocity, U is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration, and s is the distance covered.

From the given question, s = 20.1 cm (0.201 m), U = 4.0 m/s, V = 0.

So that since Poala flies against gravity, then we have:

V^{2} = U^{2} - 2as

0 = (4)^{2} - 2(a x 0.201)

  = 16 - 0.402a

0.402a = 16

a = \frac{16}{0.402}

  = 39.801

a = 39.80 m/s^{2}

Therefore Paola's acceleration is 39.80 m/s^{2}.

When does a lightbulb carry more current, (a) immediately after it is turned on and the glow of the metal filament is increasing
emmasim [6.3K]

A  lightbulb carries more current immediately after it is turned on and the glow of the metal filament is increasing; option A.

<h3>What is current?</h3>

Current refers to the flow of electric charges typically electrons.

Current flowing through a metallic material decreases with increase in temperature of the material.

This is because the resistance of the metal increases with increase in temperature.

Therefore, for a light bulb, the current flow through it will be maximum when it is just turned on because the temperature, and hence the resistance of the  filament is at its lowest.

In conclusion, current flow decreases with increase in resistance.
