The mutual forces of gravity between the Earth and an object on or near
its surface are (mass of the object) x (acceleration of gravity on Earth).
These two forces are equal, and we call their strength the "weight" of
the object. It's the number shown on the scale as long as nobody has
their thumb on the scale. In this problem, the force is 45N . (That's
about 10.12 pounds.)

The acceleration of gravity on Earth is about 9.8 meters per second² .

So 45N = (mass in kilograms) x (9.8 meters per second²)

Divide each side by 9.8 : Mass = 45/9.8 = 4.59 kilograms (rounded)

Which two minerals are commercial sources of iron. explain why the answer is a?

vichka [17]

Answer:

Hematite and magnetite

Explanation:

Minerals such as Iron don’t occur alone due to its interaction with other elements. The Iron’s major source is usually through ores such as Hematite, Magnetite, limonite etc.

However Pure magnetite contains 72.4 percent iron and pure hematite contains 69.9 percent. They have the highest percentage of iron thereby making them the main sources.

Hi how do i run faster

Andrei [34K]

Answer:

Creatine is a great option , its not gonna help long term running ; but a great boost when you first start the run/jog.

Now to run faster you have to build great endurance and that is done through constant exercise running and stamina work outs such as sports , sprints calistetics etc.

Explanation:

Its not a simple 1 time thing and your suddenly , it takes drive and motivation !

Hope i was able to help you out ! Have a great day :)

components of the speed of the coin is given as

$v_x = v cos60$

$v_x = 6.4 cos60 = 3.2 m/s$

$v_y = vsin60$

$v_y = 6.4 sin60 = 5.54 m/s$

now the time taken by the coin to reach the plate is given by

$t = \frac{\delta x}{v_x}$

$t = \frac{2.1}{3.2}$

$t = 0.656 s$

now in order to find the height

$h = vy * t + \frac{1}{2} at^2$

$h = 5.54 * 0.656 - \frac{1}{2}*9.8*(0.656)^2$

$h = 1.52 m$

so it is placed at 1.52 m height

The charges that are free to move in a metallic conducting wire and that are responsible for the flow of electric current are

Anna007 [38]

Answer:Negatively charged particle called Free Electrons

Explanation:

Current is the flow of charged particles called Free electrons. Electrons are free to move from one atom to another and we call them a sea of de-localized electrons. In absence of any externally applied emf, these electrons are randomly moving but with the onset of emf, these electrons flow in a particular direction.

Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

n = 1,875

Explanation:

The speed of light in vacuum is constant (c) and in a material medium it is

v = d / t

The refractive index of a material is defined by

n = c / v

Let's look for the speed of light in the material, in general the length that light travels is known, this value is high, x = 1, when we place a block on the road, a small amount is lengthened by the length of the block, which in general is despised

These measurements are made on a digital oscilloscope that allows to stop the signals and measure their differences, that is, the zero is taken when the first ray arrives and the time for the second ray is measured,

v = d / t

v = 1 / 6.25 10⁻⁹

v = 1.6 10⁸ m / s

we calculate the refractive index

n = 3 10⁸ / 1.6 10⁸

n = 1,875
