On Earth, 1 kg = 9.8 N = 2.2 lbs. On the Moon, 1 kg = 1.6 N = 0.37 lbs. Use these relationships to answer the following question

s. Show your work. a. What is weight, in newtons, of a 50.-kg person on Earth? b. What is the weight, in newtons, of a 50.-kg person on the Moon? c. What is the mass, in kilograms, of a 100.-lb. person on Earth? d. What is the mass of the person in question c on the Moon?

Answer:

(a) 490 N on earth

(b) 80 N on earth

(c) 45.4545 kg on earth

(d) 270.27 kg on moon

Explanation:

We have given 1 kg = 9.8 N = 2.2 lbs on earth

And 1 kg = 1.6 N = 0.37 lbs on moon

(a) We have given mass of the person m = 50 kg

As it is given that 1 kg = 9.8 N

So 50 kg = 50×9.8 =490 N

(b) Mass of the person on moon = 50 kg

As it is given that on moon 1 kg = 1.6 N

So 50 kg = 50×1.6 = 80 N

(c) We have given that weight of the person on the earth = 100 lbs

As it is given that 1 kg = 2.2 lbs on earth

So 100 lbs = 45.4545 kg

(d) We have given weight of the person on moon = 100 lbs

As it is given that 1 kg = 0.37 lbs

So 100 lbs $\frac{100}{0.37}=270.27kg$

A boat produced water waves of frequency 4 Hz and wavelength 2m, if it reached the shore after 2 seconds how far is the boat fro

kap26 [50]

Answer:

S = 16 m

Explanation:

Given that

The frequency of the water waves, f = 4 Hz

The wavelength of the water waves, λ = 2 m

The time the waves reached the shore, t = 2 s

The relation between the velocity, wavelength, and the frequency of the wave is given by the relation,

v = f λ m/s

Substituting the given values in the above equation,

v = 4 x 2

= 8 m/s

The velocity of the water waves is v = 8 m/s

The distance between the shore and boat is given by

s = v x t

= 8 x 2

= 16 m

Hence, the distance between the boat and the shore is, s = 16 m

Amir pitches a baseball at an initial height of 6 feet with a velocity of 73 feet per second. this can be represented by the fun

What is batter misses?

An out in baseball happens when the umpire declares a batter or baserunner out. A hitter or runner who is out is no longer able to score runs and must go back to the dugout until their subsequent turn at bat. The batting team's turn is over after three outs are recorded in a half-inning.

In order to signal an out, umpires typically make a fist with one hand and then flex that arm, either upward on pop flies or forward on regular plays at first base. To indicate a called strikeout, home plate umpires frequently use a "punch-out" action.When a batter is struck by a pitched ball without making a swing at it, it is referred to as a hit-by-pitch. He consequently gets first base.

We have been given that

s = 6 feet

v = 73 feet per second

Substituting these values in the formula $H(t)=-16t^2+vt+s$

$H(t)=-16t^2+73t+6$

When the ball hits the ground, the height becomes zero. Thus, H(t)=0

$-16t^2+73t+6=0$

We solve the equation using quadratic formula $x_{1,2}=\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

Substituting the values a=-16, b= 73, c=6

$t_{1,2}=\frac{-73 \pm \sqrt{(73)^2-4(-16)(6)}}{2(-16)}\\\Rightarrow t_{1,2}=\frac{-73 \pm \sqrt{5713}}{2(-16)}\\\Rightarrow t_{1,2}=-0.081, 4.643$

How does the water cycle influence weather in your area? Use complete sentences and a specific example from your experience.

Charra [1.4K]

Evaporation is the process by which water changes from a liquid to a gas or vapor. Evaporation is the primary pathway that water moves from the liquid state back into the water cycle as atmospheric water vapor. Studies have shown that the oceans, seas, lakes, and rivers provide nearly 90 percent of the moisture in the atmosphere via evaporation, with the remaining 10 percent being contributed by plant transpiration.
