What will be the weight (acceleration due to gravity on the moon is 1/6 that of the earth

Physics
1 answer:
jeyben [28]3 years ago

Answer:

The weight will be 1/6 of whatever it is on Earth.

Explanation:

Remember F=ma

If the acceleration decreases by a factor of 6 while the mass stays constant, you can see the force (the weight) will also decrease by the same factor.

A shell is fired with a horizontal velocity in the positive x direction from the top of an 80 m high cliff. The shell strikes th
Sonbull [250]

Answer:

V = 331.59m/s

Explanation:

First we need to calculate the time taken for the shell fire to hit the ground using the equation of motion.

S = ut + 1/2at²

Given height of the cliff S = 80m

initial velocity u = 0m/s²

a = g = 9.81m/s²

Substitute

80 = 0+1/2(9.81)t²

80 = 4.905t²

t² = 80/4.905

t² = 16.31

t = √16.31

t = 4.04s

Next is to get the vertical velocity

Vy = u + gt

Vy = 0+(9.81)(4.04)

Vy = 39.6324

Also calculate the horizontal velocity

Vx = 1330/4.04

Vx = 329.21m/s

Find the magnitude of the velocity to calculate speed of the shell as it hits the ground.

V² = Vx²+Vy²

V² = 329.21²+39.63²

V² = 329.21²+39.63²

V² = 108,379.2241+1,570.5369

V² = 109,949.761

V = √ 109,949.761

V = 331.59m/s

Hence the speed of the shell as it hits the ground is 331.59m/s

A proton has a charge of 1.6 × 10-19 C and a mass of 1.67 × 10-27 kg. A proton moves with velocity 1.8 × 105 m/s in the z-direct
lord [1]

Hey

So first we need to know what the direction of the force is, using your right hand rule point your right hand in the direction of the velocity. You're saying its the z direction, not telling me whether it's into the page or out? Since its a positive z im assuming its coming out. The magnetic field is pushing it upwards, so the force is going in the negative x direction.

The force of a magnetic field is

F = Qv X B

What's weird is that you don't need mass in this equation. Actually you don't even need the formula, its telling you that they're all going in perpendicar directions. the answer is 90 degrees.

Now if you want to know the F just multiply the charge, velocity and magnetic field .

F = GVB

F = 6.048 E -15

Answer : 90 degrees, sin(90) = 1

If the swimmer starts at rest, slides without friction, and descends through a vertical height of 2.41 m
AveGali [126]

Answer:

6.88 m/s

Explanation:

The Conservation of Energy states that:

Initial Kinetic Energy + Initial Potential Energy = Final Kinetic Energy + Final Potential Energy

So we can write

mgh_{i}+\frac{1}{2}mv_{i} ^{2}=mgh_{f}+\frac{1}{2}mv_{f} ^{2}

We can cancel the common factor of m which leaves us with

gh_{i}+\frac{1}{2}v_{i} ^{2}=gh_{f}+\frac{1}{2}v_{f} ^{2}

Lets solve for v_f

gh_{i}+\frac{v_{i} ^{2}}{2}=gh_{f}+\frac{v_{f} ^{2}}{2}

Subtract gh_f from both sides of the equation.

gh_{i}+\frac{v_{i} ^{2}}{2}-gh_{f}=\frac{v_{f} ^{2}}{2}

Multiply both sides of the equation by 2.

2(gh_{i}+\frac{v_{i} ^{2}}{2}-gh_{f})={v_{f} ^{2}

Simplify the left side.

Apply the distributive property.

2(gh_{i})+2\frac{v_{i} ^{2}}{2}+2(-gh_{f})={v_{f} ^{2}

Cancel the common factor of 2.

2gh_{i}+v_{i} ^{2}-2gh_{f}={v_{f} ^{2}

Take the square root of both sides of the equation to eliminate the exponent on the right side.

{v_{f}=\sqrt{2gh_{i}+v_{i} ^{2}-2gh_{f}}

We are given g,v_{i},h_{i},h_{f}.

We can now solve for the final velocity.

{v_{f}=\sqrt{(2*9.81*2.41)+(0^{2})-(2*9.81*0)

Anything multiplied by 0 is 0.

{v_{f}=\sqrt{2*9.81*2.41

{v_{f}=\sqrt{47.2842

v_f=6.88
