Answer:

\frac{2}{5}

Explanation:

Thinking process:

The weight of an object if defined as the gravitational pool on the object. This is the force that pulls an object downward. This is given as follows:

W = mg

where w = weight (gravitational pull)

           m = mass of the object (kg)

           g  = acceleration due to gravity (m/s²)

The acceleration due to gravity on Mars is about 3.924 m/s². This is \frac{2}{5} of the acceleration on the earth.

Therefore, the weight of the object on Mars will weigh 2/5 of what it weighs on earth.

A child is riding a merry-go-round that is turning at 7.18 rpm. if the child is standing 4.65 m from the center of the merry-go-
Alisiya [41]
First we need to convert the angular speed from rpm to rad/s. Keeping in mind that 
1 rev= 2 \pi rad
1 min = 60 s
the angular speed is
\omega = 7.18  \frac{rev}{min} \cdot  \frac{2 \pi}{60} = 0.75 rad/s

And so now we can calculate the tangential speed of the child, which is the angular speed times the distance of the child from the center of the motion:
v= \omega r = (0.75 rad/s)(4.65 m)=3.50 m/s
