Mass m = 25 Kg;  Force = Weight = mg   Force = ma  but a = g

          F = 40.8 N

Required: gravity g = ?

                F = mg

                g = F/m

                g = 40.8 N/25 Kg

                g = 1.6 m/s²

-- Start with. . . . . . . . . . . . 12 grams.
-- Lose half of it once. . . . . . 6 grams left.
-- Lose half of it again . . . . . 3 grams left.
-- Lose half of it again . . . . . 1.5 grams left.
-- Lose half of it again . . . . . 0.75 gram left.

-- How many times did it lose half ?    4 times.

-- How long does it take to lose half ?  4.5 days. 
                                                       (That's why it's called the 'half-life'.)

-- How long did it take to lose half, 4 times ?

                                           (4 x 4.5 days) = 18 days .

Effect of impurities and temperature to surface tension​
oksano4ka [1.4K]
In general, surface tension decreases when temperature increases because cohesive forces decrease with an increase of molecular thermal activity. The influence of the surrounding environment is due to the adhesive action of liquid molecules that they have at the interface.

The acceleration due to gravity on the moon is about 1/6 of the acceleration due to gravity on the earth. A net force F acts hor
uysha [10]

Answer:

c.a_m

Explanation:

We are given that

Acceleration due to gravity on the moon=a_m

Acceleration due to gravity on the earth=a_e

g_m=\frac{1}{6}g_e

Net force due to am on an object on moon=F_{net}=ma_m

There is no friction and no drag force and there is no gravity involved

Then, the force acting on an object on earth=F=ma_e

F=F_{net}(given)

ma_m=ma_e

a_e=a_m

Hence, option c is true.
