Is the Earth bigger than the moon​

Physics

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

The Earth is about 4x bigger than the moon. Scientists speculate that the moon was once part of Earth, until something hit the Earth, and broke off a large chunk of it. These pieces were flung off the Earth, and began to orbit it. Slowly, the pieces were mashed together by gravity, and formed the moon.

A machine carries a 100kg cargo to a boat at a rate of 10m/s2. The distance between the ground to the boat is 50ft. If the machi
klasskru [66]

Answer:

50.8 watt

Explanation:

we know that P=W÷t

W=F.S           S-->distance=50 ft= 15.24 m

F=ma

=100×10=1000 N

SO W= 1000×15.24

        =15240 J

NOW

P=W÷t          t=5 mints = 5×60=300 sec

P=15240÷300

P=50.8 watt

One speaker generates sound waves with amplitude A.
raketka [301]

Answer:

iv) It is 9x bigger than before

Explanation:

As the amplitudes of the new speakers add directly with the original one, taking into account the phase that they have, the composed amplitude of the sound wave is as follows:

At = A + 4A -2A = 3 A

The intensity of the wave, assuming it propagates evenly in all directions, is constant at a given distance from the source, and can be expressed as follows:

I = P/A

where P= Power of the wave source, A= Area (for a point source, is equal to the surface area of a sphere of radius r, where is r is the distance to the source along a straight line)

For a sinusoidal wave, the power is proportional to the square of the amplitude, so the intensity is proportional to the square of the amplitude also.

If the amplitude changes increasing three times, the change in intensity will be proportional to the square of the change in amplitude, i.e., it will be 9 times bigger.

So, the statement iv) is the right one.

A hammer exerts 49.8 N of force on the head (r=0.00510 m) of a nail. How much pressure does it exert on the nail?
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

609547.12 Pa ≈ 6.10×10^5 Pa

Explanation:

Step 1:

Data obtained from the question. This include the following:

Force (F) = 49.8 N

Radius (r) = 0.00510 m

Pressure (P) =..?

Step 2:

Determination of the area of the head of the nail.

The head of a nail is circular in nature. Therefore, the area is given by:

Area (A) = πr²

With the above formula we can obtain the area as follow:

Radius (r) = 0.00510 m

Area (A) =?

A = πr²

A = π x (0.00510)²

A = 8.17×10^-5 m²

Therefore the area of the head of the nail is 8.17×10^-5 m²

Step 3:

Determination of the pressure exerted by the hammer.

This is illustrated below:

Force (F) = 49.8 N

Area (A) = 8.17×10^-5 m²

Pressure (P) =..?

Pressure (P) = Force (F) /Area (A)

P = F/A

P = 49.8/8.17×10^-5

P = 609547.12 N/m²

Now, we shall convert 609547.12 N/m² to Pa.

1 N/m² = 1 Pa

Therefore, 609547.12 N/m² = 609547.12 Pa.

Therefore, the pressure exerted by the hammer on the nail is 609547.12 Pa or 6.10×10^5 Pa
