Mass is the same, weight is less

<h3>What is the Weight and mass on Moon ?</h3>

As we know that the mass of the object is the measurement of the quantity of the matter that is present in it

So here we can say that if the mass of the object is m then its total quantity of the matter that is present in it is given as

mass = (density) × (volume)

Now for the weight of the object is defined as the force of gravity due to planet

Fg = mg

so the weight of the object is depending on the acceleration due to gravity of the planet

As we know that the gravity of moon is smaller than the gravity of the earth so here weight on the moon will be smaller than the weight on the Earth

Starting from rest, a 2.3x10-4 kg flea springs straight upward. While the flea is pushing off from the ground, the ground exerts
Harman [31]

Answer:

3.13 m/s

Explanation:

From the question,

Since the flea spring started from rest,

Ek = W................... Equation 1

Where Ek = Kinetic Energy of the flea spring, W = work done on the flea spring.

But,

Ek = 1/2mv²............ Equation 2

Where m = mass of the flea spring, v = flea's speed when it leaves the ground.

substitute equation 2 into equation 1

1/2mv² = W.................... Equation 3

make v the subject of the equation

v = √(2W/m)................. Equation 4

Given: W = 3.6×10⁻⁴ J, m = 2.3×10⁻⁴ kg

Substitute into equation 4

v = √[2×3.6×10⁻⁴ )/2.3×10⁻⁴]

v = 7.2/2.3

v = 3.13 m/s

Hence the flea's speed when it leaves the ground  = 3.13 m/s

What are at least three types of energy involving a microwave
timama [110]
I'm pretty sure what you are trying to ask for is radiative energy, light energy, and electronic energy.
Radiative since the microwave is releasing radiation,
Light since there is light inside the microwave,
Electronic since it is plugged in and uses electricity.
You can also use sound, but I don't think every microwave makes sound.

Calculate the induced electric field (in V/m) in a 40-turn coil with a diameter of 18 cm that is placed in a spatially uniform m
kozerog [31]

Answer:

ε = 6.617 V

Explanation:

We are given;

Number of turns; N = 40 turns

Diameter;D = 18cm = 0.18m

magnetic field; B = 0.65 T

Time;t = 0.1 s

The formula for the induced electric field(E.M.F) is given by;

ε = |-NAB/t|

A is area

ε is induced electric field

While N,B and t remain as earlier described.

Area = π(d²/4) = π(0.18²/4) = 0.02545

Thus;

ε = |-40 × 0.02545 × 0.65/0.1|

ε = 6.617 V

(we ignore the negative sign because we have to take the absolute value)
