Different masses are hung on a spring scale calibrated in newtons. The force exerted by gravity on 1.0 kg is shown in the image
nekit [7.7K]

d.88 n

Explanation:

The force exerted by gravity on the mass is 88N;

Gravitational force is usually experienced by two bodies with masses.

This force causes all objects on earth to accelerate at 9.8m/s².

    Force of gravity = mass x acceleration due to gravity

In this case, the force exerted on the object by gravity will be the weight of the object.

Weight is a force applied gravity on a body:

   Weight of the masses = Force of gravity = mass x acceleration

   Given mass = 9kg

             Force of gravity = 9 x 9.8 = 88.2N approximately 88N

A depiction of a famous scientific experiment is given. Consider how the beam changes when the magnet is off compared to when th
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

The beam used is a negatively charged electron beam with a velocity of

v = E / B

Explanation:

After reading this long statement we can extract the data to work on the problem.

* They indicate that when the beam passes through the plates it deviates towards the positive plate, so the beam must be negative electrons.

* Now indicates that the electric field and the magnetic field are contracted and that the beam passes without deviating, so the electric and magnetic forces must be balanced

           F_{e} =  F_{m}

           q E = qv B

           v = E / B

this configuration is called speed selector

They ask us what type of beam was used.

The beam used is a negatively charged electron beam with a velocity of v = E / B
