What would the weight of an astronaut be on Saturn if his mass is 68 kg and acceleration of gravity on Saturn is 10.44 m/s2? Ple

alex41 [277]

Here's the part you need to know:

   (Weight of anything) =

   (the thing's mass)
times
       (acceleration of gravity in the place where the thing is) .

   Weight = (mass ) x (gravity) .

That's always true everywhere.
You should memorize it.

For the astronaut on Saturn . . .

   Weight = (mass ) x (gravity) .

   Weight = (68 kg) x (10.44 m/s²)

   = 709.92 newtons .
__________________________________

On Earth, gravity is only 9.8 m/s².
So as long as the astronaut is on Earth, his weight is only

   (68 kg) x (9.8 m/s²)

   = 666.4 newtons .

Notice that his mass is his mass ... it doesn't change
no matter where he goes.

But his weight changes in different places, because
it depends on the gravity in each place.

A 48.0-kg skater is standing at rest in front of a wall. By pushing against the wall she propels herself backward with a velocit

Kipish [7]

Answer:

F = 47.6 N

Explanation:

Newton's 2nd law can be expressed as the rate of change of the total momentum, respect of time, as follows:

$F = \frac{\Delta p}{\Delta t}$

So, in order to find the average force exerted by the skater on the wall, we can find the change in momentum due to the force exerted by the wall (which is equal and opposite to the one exerted by the skater), and divide it by the time interval , as follows:

$F_{wall} = \frac{\Delta p}{\Delta t} =\frac{(48.0 kg*(-1.06m/s)}{1.07s} = -47.6 N$

⇒ Fsk = 47.6 N (normal to the wall)

A third baseman makes a throw to first base 40.5 m away. The ball leaves his hand with a speed of 30.0 m/s at a height of 1.4 m

Ugo [173]

Answer:

When the ball goes to first base it will be 4.23 m high.

Explanation:

Horizontal velocity = 30 cos17.3 = 28.64 m/s

Horizontal displacement = 40.5 m

Time

$t=\frac{40.5}{28.64}=1.41s$

Time to reach the goal posts 40.5 m away = 1.41 seconds

Vertical velocity = 30 sin17.3 = 8.92 m/s

Time to reach the goal posts 40.5 m away = 1.41 seconds

Acceleration = -9.81m/s²

Substituting in s = ut + 0.5at²

s = 8.92 x 1.41 - 0.5 x 9.81 x 1.41²= 2.83 m

Height of throw = 1.4 m

Height traveled by ball = 2.83 m

Total height = 2.83 + 1.4 = 4.23 m

When the ball goes to first base it will be 4.23 m high.
