How do you find the weight of an object when given the mass and acceleration?

Physics
1 answer:
murzikaleks [220]1 year ago
3 0

Weight of an object is given by the formula W = m x g , where

m : mass of the object

g : gravitational acceleration

It is <u>independent of the horizontal </u><u>acceleration</u>.  

<h3>What do we mean by weight of an object?</h3>

Weight is a gauge of how strongly gravity is<u> pulling something down.</u> It is dependent on the object's mass, or how much matter it consists of. It also depends on the <u>object's uniformly distributed</u> downward acceleration caused by gravity.

This equation can be used to express weight:

 W = m x g

<h3>What is the difference between weight and mass of an object?</h3>

In everyday speech, the phrases "mass" and "weight" are frequently used interchangeably; nevertheless, the two concepts don't have the same meaning. In contrast to weight, which is a <u>measurement of</u> how the <u>force</u> of gravity works upon a mass, mass is the <u>amount of substance</u> in a material.

Answer:

B. As the temperature increases, the kinetic energy of the molecules increases.

Explanation:

When the temperature of an object increases, the kinetic energy of its particles increases, so the thermal energy of an object increases as its temperature increases.

If a 70-kg swimmer pushes off a pool wall with a force of 250 N what is her acceleration
jek_recluse [69]
F= MA 
force equals mass time acceleration 
250 N = (70 kg ) (A)
250/70 = 3.5 which is about 4 m/s 
Hope this helps

Suppose water waves are moving from the deep end to the shallow end of the pool. That is, the waves are moving into a medium (sh
MissTica

Answer:

The waves will turn slightly to the <em><u>left .</u></em>

Explanation :

The waves will turn slightly to the left, because the left side of each wave front hits the boundary first and slows down, moving more slowly than the right side until the right side of the wave front reaches the boundary. THis causes the wave to veer slightly to the left.

  Basically the speed of water depends upon depth of the river or the ocean.

the formula is as follows :

            v =  √gxd

           v =  √d               (g is the gravitational acceleration)

As the water waves are more at the deeper end then the shallow end, so during its course to the shallower end, they are slightly deviated toward the normal., hence it will move slightly to the left.
