The woman weighs 100N now.

Explanation:

Given:

F is given as 400N

one full additional earth radius formed

To Find:

Weight of the woman=?

Solution:

We know that gravitational force is inversely proportional to the square of radius.

f_g=\frac{1}{r^2}

where

f_g is the gravitational force

r^2 is the radius square

So when radius is doubled, the force becomes one fourth of the original.

Therefore \frac{1}{4} \times400 = 100N

(6) Given that,

Force in east direction = 67 N

Force in west direction = 82 N

Solution,

According to the given figure,

Two forces are acting in opposite direction. Maximum force is acting in west direction. It means the net force is acting in west direction.

Net force = 82-67

= 15 N (Due west)

The forces are unbalanced. It is because the magnitude of force in west is more than in east.

Net force = 15 N, Direction of motion = West and the forces are unbalanced.

A train travels north at a speed of 50 m/s.
Gala2k [10]

The apparent velocity is B) 48 m/s north

Explanation:

Here we have a problem of relativity of velocities.

In fact, the train is travelling north at a speed of

v_t = 50 m/s

where this velocity is measured with respect to the ground.

At the same time, a passenger on the train is walking towards the rear (so, south) at a velocity of

v'=2 m/s

where this velocity is measured with respect to the train, which is in motion in the opposite direction.

Therefore, the apparent velocity of the passenger with respect to an observer standing on the ground is:

v=V_t - v' = 50 - 2 = 48 m/s

And the direction is north, since this number is positive.

Explain Alfred wegener's hypothesis
grandymaker [24]
He proposed the theory of Continental Drift. He believed that all of the continents were once joined together in a super continent he called Pangea (not sure if that's spelled right I studied this awhile ago). He proved this by showing similarities in fossils in completely different continents and showing how well the continents could fit together.
