Answer:

\Huge \boxed{\mathrm{200 \ N}}

Explanation:

\sf Weight \ (N)= mass \ (kg) \times acceleration \ of \ gravity \ (m/s^2)

W=mg

Your mass is 20 kg.

The acceleration of gravity is approximately 10 m/s².

W=20 \times 10

W=200

Your weight is 200 N.

Weight = (mass) x (gravity)

= 200 Newtons.

A glider is gliding through the air at a height of 416 meters with a speed of 45.2 m/s. The glider
julia-pushkina [17]

There's not enough information to find an answer.

I think the idea here is that in descending (416 - 278) = 138 meters,
the glider gives up some gravitational potential energy, which
becomes kinetic energy at the lower altitude.  This is all well and
good, but we can't calculate the difference in potential energy
without knowing the mass of the glider.

Answer:

C:

Explanation:

either C or A but A seems unlikely after multiple attempts. Although the question doesn't make it clear whether the balance is electric either way it could be wrong in someway and seems to be the most likely.

In a car with a mass of 4,000 KG is accelerating at a rate of 2m/s2 and hits a tree what force does it have
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

According to Newton's second law of motion, the acceleration of a body is directly proportional to the force acting on the body and inversely proportional to its mass. The formula for this law is

F=ma

=4000kg * 2m/s 2 =8000N

During the deceleration of an ascending elevator, the normal force on the feet of a passenger is _____ her weight. During the de
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer: Smaller than ; larger than

Explanation:

When the elevator is moving in the upward direction, then the force acting on it is negative in nature because of

N= mg +ma, (g is gravity and a is acceleration)

here ma is negative so the N= mg-ma

Hence, it feels smaller than its original weight.

When the elevator is moving downward , then the force acting will be positive in nature

N= mg+ma,

here ma will be positive so it feels larger the original weight of passenger.
