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.
The boat is initially at equilibrium since it seems to start off at a constant speed of 5.5 m/s. If the wind applies a force of 950 N, then it is applying an acceleration <em>a</em> of
950 N = (2300 kg) <em>a</em>
<em>a</em> = (950 N) / (2300 kg)
<em>a</em> ≈ 0.413 m/s²
Take east to be positive and west to be negative, so that the boat has an initial velocity of -5.5 m/s. Then after 11.5 s, the boat will attain a velocity of
<em>v</em> = -5.5 m/s + <em>a</em> (11.5 s)
<em>v</em> = -0.75 m/s
which means the wind slows the boat down to a velocity of 0.75 m/s westward.
Answer:
Option D
Explanation:
When another battery is added to the circuit, the power supplied through the coil and to the magnet becomes greater leading to stronger magnetic field lines being produced.
Answer:
Use the form of equation:
Q=mL
You have the specific latent heat of vaporization L = 2.260*10^{6}
And Q, the heat energy supplied, which equals 1695 KJ = 1695*10^{3} J
So you can get the mass by substitution in the formula below.
