The mutual forces of gravity between the Earth and an object on or near
its surface are (<em>mass of the object</em>) x (<em>acceleration of gravity on Earth</em>). 
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 = <u>4.59 kilograms</u>  (rounded)

The whale shark is the largest of all fish and can have the mass of three adult
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

m = 20,000 kg

Explanation:

Force, F=2.5\times 10^4\ N

Acceleration of the shark, a=1.25\ m/s^2

It is required to find the mass of the shark. Let m is the mass. Using second law of motion to find it as follows :

F = ma

Putting the value of F and a to find m

m=\dfrac{F}{a}\\\\m=\dfrac{2.5\times 10^4}{1.25}\\\\m=20,000\ kg

So, the shark's mass is 20,000 kg.

3. How do you represent the strength of a<br> force in a free-body diagram?
ivann1987 [24]
Generally, the length of the line will indicate how strong the force is. If you have two opposing forces and one is higher than the other, you would draw the line of the higher force visibly longer.

adell [148]
<span>The five factors of production include land, labor, capital, entrepreneurship, and knowledge. Land is considered as the primary because these are the pre-existent resources readily available from nature however, nowadays, these are already bought and passed down from generations. Capital is the money used for the production which needs to be returned when one invests on something. Labor is the person’s inputs which is very valuable. Entrepreneurship is how the person transact according to how the people negotiate. And knowledge is one of human’s invaluable efforts of giving the ideas.</span>
