Answer:

1.6 kg

Step-by-step Solution:

Since Force = mass × acceleration we have:

F = 8N

a= 5 m/s^2

m = ?

By plugging the values above into F=ma we obtain:

F=ma\\\\8=m(5)\\\\\frac{8}{5}=\frac{m(5)}{5}\\\\m=\frac{8}{5}=1.6

Therefore, the Chromebook has a mass of 1.6 kilograms.

(a) Calculate the acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the Sun.
Ira Lisetskai [31]
<h2>a)Acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the Sun is 274.21 m/s²</h2><h2>b) Factor of increase in weight is 27.95</h2>

Explanation:

a) Acceleration due to gravity

                      g=\frac{GM}{r^2}

 Here we need to find acceleration due to gravity of Sun,

                G = 6.67259 x 10⁻¹¹ N m²/kg²

    Mass of sun, M = 1.989 × 10³⁰ kg

    Radius of sun, r = 6.957 x 10⁸ m

Substituting,

                g=\frac{6.67259\times 10^{-11}\times 1.989\times 10^{30}}{(6.957\times 10^8)^2}\\\\g=274.21m/s^2

Acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the Sun = 274.21 m/s²

b) Acceleration due to gravity in earth = 9.81 m/s²

   Ratio of gravity = 274.21/9.81 = 27.95

   Weight = mg

  Factor of increase in weight = 27.95

Match the measurements to the correct number of significant figures.
Shalnov [3]
To calculate the number of sig figs
1.  Count ALL nonzero numbers
2.  If the zero is between 2 numbers, count it
3.  If in a decimal the zero is at the end, count it
4.  In a decimal all the zeros before the first nonzero number are placeholders and don't count them
5.  In a number greater than zero all zeros AFTER the last nonzero number are placeholders and don't count them.

A - 5
B - 2
C - 3
D - 1
E - 4

Alec says the force of gravity is stronger on a piece of paper after it’s crumpled. His classmate, Jordan, disagrees. Alec “prov
Anika [276]
No, gravity acts equally on all objects.  The crumpled paper falls faster because it resists the drag force due to the atmosphere because of its compact size.  A flat piece of paper has an extended body and "catches" the air and falls more slowly.  In a vacuum they would fall at the same rate either way.

The machine in the figure is ideal and an effort force of
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

1.5 m

Explanation:

Let the distance from the box to the pivot be c.

Let the distance from the pivot to the effort be y.

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Effort force (Fₑ) = 7 N

Force of resistance (Fᵣ) = 14 N

Distance from the box to the pivot (c) = 0.75 m

Distance from the pivot to the effort (y) =?

Clockwise moment = Fₑ × y

Anticlock wise moment = Fᵣ × c

Clockwise moment = Anticlock wise moment

Fₑ × y = Fᵣ × c

7 × y = 14 × 0.75

7 × y = 10.5

Divide both side by 7

y = 10.5 / 7

y = 1.5 m

Therefore, the distance from the pivot to the effort is 1.5 m
