We know, weight = mass * gravity 
10 = m * 9.8
m = 10/9.8 = 1.02 Kg

Now, Let, the gravity of that planet = g'
g' = m/r²   [m,r = mass & radius of that planet ]
g' = M/10 / (1/2R)²   [M, R = mass & radius of Earth ]
g' = 4M / 10R²
g' = 2/5 * M/R²
g' = 2/5 * g   
g' = 2/5 * 9.8
g' = 3.92

Weight on that planet = planet's gravity * mass
W' = 3.92 * 1.02
W' = 4 N

In short, Your Answer would be 4 Newtons

Hope this helps!

A Cessna aircraft has a lift off speed of 147 km/h. What minimum constant acceleration does this require if the aircraft is to b
netineya [11]

Answer:

The acceleration is  a =51945 \ km/h^2

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The lift up speed is  v  = 147 \  km/h

    The distance covered for the take off run is s =  208 m = 0.208 \ km

Generally from kinematic equation we have that

      v^2 = u^2 + 2as

Here u is the initial  speed of the aircraft with value 0 m/ s give that the aircraft started from rest

So  

    147^2 = 0^2 + 2* a* 0.208

=>  a =51945 \ km/h^2

An incompressible fluid (water) is flowing through a pipe of diameter 20 cm with
sergey [27]

Answer:

115 kPa

Explanation:

Use Bernoulli equation:

P₁ + ½ ρ v₁² + ρgh₁ = P₂ + ½ ρ v₂² + ρgh₂

Assuming no elevation change, h₁ = h₂.

P₁ + ½ ρ v₁² = P₂ + ½ ρ v₂²

Plugging in values:

(582,000 Pa) + ½ (1000 kg/m³) (1.28 m/s)² = P + ½ (1000 kg/m³) (30.6 m/s)²

P = 115,000 Pa

P = 115 kPa

Which of the following would most likely be considered nonpoint source pollution
fredd [130]
The best answer is b) increased turbidity from erosion.

Nonpoint source pollution generally happens as a result of many systems interacting, and is not directly attributed to one event or pollutant. Generally, natural environmental systems participate in pollution of this kind, regardless of whether or not human activity was a factor. Examples include water runoff, or erosion. 

The other pollutants listed have a direct cause and direct effect, the animal waste goes directly from the animals to the ground they live on, the car shop directly sumps the oil on the ground, and the oil tank leaks directly into the earth. Erosion causing turbidity is a less direct form of pollution, and is due to the synthesis of several natural phenomena<span />
