To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the conversion of units for which we will have that 1 slug is equal to 14.59kg. At the same time we will use Newton's second law for which weight is defined as the product between mass and acceleration (Due to gravity). This is then

A: Using the conversion ratio of slug to kilogram we have to,

1 slug = 14.59kg

Then

m = 280*10^3 slugs (\frac{14.59kg}{1slug})

m = 4.09*10^6kg

B: Using Newton's second law we have to,

W = mg

W = (4.09*10^6)(9.8)

W = 40034960N\approx 4*10^7N

On Earth, 1 kg = 9.8 N = 2.2 lbs. On the Moon, 1 kg = 1.6 N = 0.37 lbs. Use these relationships to answer the following question
romanna [79]

Answer:

(a) 490 N on earth

(b) 80 N on earth

(c) 45.4545 kg on earth

(d) 270.27 kg on moon

Explanation:

We have given 1 kg = 9.8 N = 2.2 lbs on earth

And 1 kg = 1.6 N = 0.37 lbs on moon

(a) We have given mass of the person m = 50 kg

As it is given that 1 kg = 9.8 N

So 50 kg = 50×9.8 =490 N

(b) Mass of the person on moon = 50 kg

As it is given that on moon 1 kg = 1.6 N

So 50 kg = 50×1.6 = 80 N

(c) We have given that weight of the person on the earth = 100 lbs

As it is given that 1 kg = 2.2 lbs on earth

So 100 lbs = 45.4545 kg

(d) We have given weight of the person on moon = 100 lbs

As it is given that 1 kg = 0.37 lbs

So 100 lbs \frac{100}{0.37}=270.27kg

Nonconjugated β,γ-unsaturated ketones are in base-catalyzed equilibrium with their conjugated α,β-unsaturated isomers. The mecha
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

Explanation:

The equilibrium mechanism for the reversible acid is catalyzed by the isomerization of non conjugated β, γ- unsaturated ketones, like 3-cyclohexanone to their conjugated α, I²- unsaturated isomers.

Oxygen of the Carbonyl group in the ketone is protonated by the acid and this is followed by the abstraction of an α- hydrogen from the protonated 3-cyclo hexanone to yield ethanol

2-cyclo hexanone can be obtained by acid catalyzation of 3-cyclohexanone isomers through the formation of it's "enol".
