His weight depends on where he is, because

Weight = (mass) x (gravity in the place where the mass is) .

For example:

-- If this man is on Mars, his weight is (110 kg) x (3.7 m/s²) = 408 Newtons

-- If he is on the Moon, his weight is (110 kg) x (1.6 m/s²) = 176 Newtons

-- If he is on Earth, his weight is (110 kg) x (9.8 m/s²) = 1,078 Newtons

-- If he is in a spacecraft coasting from one to another, his weight is zero.

If a player through a basketball to the target with an initial velocity of 17 m/s making an angle of 30 degrees with the horizon

Svetllana [295]

Answer:

The final position made with the vertical is 2.77 m.

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of the ball, V = 17 m/s

angle of projection, θ = 30⁰

time of motion, t = 1.3 s

The vertical component of the velocity is calculated as;

$V_y = Vsin \theta\\\\V_y = 17 \times sin(30)\\\\V_y = 8.5 \ m/s$

The final position made with the vertical (Yf) after 1.3 seconds is calculated as;

$Y_f = V_yt - \frac{1}{2}g t^2\\\\Y_f = (8.5 \times 1.3 ) - (\frac{1}{2} \times 9.8 \times 1.3^2)\\\\Y_f = 11.05 \ - \ 8.281\\\\Y_f = 2.77 \ m$

Therefore, the final position made with the vertical is 2.77 m.

After being struck by a bowling ball, a 1.8 kg bowling pin sliding to the right at 5.0 m/s collides head-on with another 1.8 kg

kaheart [24]

Answer:

a) v₂ = 4.2 m/s

b) v₂ = 5 m/s

Explanation:

We will use the law of conservation of momentum here:

$m_1u_1+m_2u_2=m_1v_1+m_2v_2$

where,

m₁ = m₂ = mass of bowling pin = 1.8 kg

u₁ = speed of first pin before collsion = 5 m/s

u₂ = speed of second pin before collsion = 0 m/s

v₁ = speed of first pin after collsion = 0.8 m/s

v₂ = speed of second after before collsion = ?

Therefore,

$(1.8\ kg)(5\ m/s)+(1.8\ kg)(0\ m/s)=(1.8\ kg)(0.8\ m/s)+(1.8\ kg)(v_2)\\v_2 = 5\ m/s - 0.8\ m/s$

<u></u>

We will use the law of conservation of momentum here:

$m_1u_1+m_2u_2=m_1v_1+m_2v_2$

where,

m₁ = m₂ = mass of bowling pin = 1.8 kg

u₁ = speed of first pin before collsion = 5 m/s

u₂ = speed of second pin before collsion = 0 m/s

v₁ = speed of first pin after collsion = 0 m/s

v₂ = speed of second after before collsion = ?

Therefore,

$(1.8\ kg)(5\ m/s)+(1.8\ kg)(0\ m/s)=(1.8\ kg)(0\ m/s)+(1.8\ kg)(v_2)$

Air pressure increases as you travel higher above sea level. This is the reason that cabins in commercial airliners require pres

irakobra [83]

The answer is true about the cabins in commercial airliners that require pressurization.

<h3>Why are the cabins of commercial airplanes pressurized?</h3>

Airplanes are pressurized because the air is very thin at the high altitude where they fly. The passenger jet has a cruising altitude of about 30,000 - 40,000 feet. At this altitude or height, humans can't breathe very well and our body gets less amount of oxygen. Most aircraft cabins are pressurized to an altitude about 8,000 feet. This is called cabin altitude. Aircraft pilots have access to the control's mode of a cabin pressure control system and if needed it can command the cabin to depressurize.

So we can conclude that cabins in commercial airliners require pressurization because of the greater pressure of the surrounding environment.

Just do energy spent divided by time to get your answer :). With this we can say a human might be able to!
