Answer:

10 times

Explanation:

The weight of the person is defined as the product of mass of person and the acceleration due to gravity of that planet.

Let the gravity is g.

W = m x g .... (1)

Now the value of g depends on the mass of earth when the radius of earth is constant.

g' = 10 g

So, W' = m x g' = m x 10 g = 10 mg = 10 W (from (1)

So, the weight of the person becomes 10 times.

Find the horizontal component and the vertical component

aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

v=3.66,h-3.66

Explanation:

vertical = 10sin60 - 10sin 30

horizontal =10cos60 + 10cos 30

v = 10×0.8660-10×0.5

h = 10×0.5 + 10 × 0.8660

v=8.660-5.0 = 3.66

h= 5.0-8.660 = -3.66

A contestants spin a wheel when it is their turn in a game show. One contestant gives the wheel an initial angular speed of 3.40

guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

4.62 s

Explanation:

We are given that

Initial angular speed, $\omega=3.4 rad/s$

$\theta=1\frac{1}{4} rev=\frac{5}{4}\times 2\pi=2.5\pi rad$

$\omega'=0$

$\omega'^2-\omega^2=2\alpha \theta$

Substitute the values

$0-(3.4)^2=2\times 2.5\pi \alpha$

$\alpha=\frac{-(3.4)^2}{2\times 2.5\pi}=-0.736 rad/s^2$

$\omega'=\omega+\alpha t$

$0=3.4-0.736 t$

$-0.736t=-3.4$

$t=\frac{-3.4}{-0.736}=4.62 s$

Hence, the wheel takes 4.62 s to come to rest.
