If a cat's mass is 1.20 kg, what is its weight on earth?

1 answer:

3 0

Weight is a force. As such it is determined by the Newton's second law of motion: Force = mass x acceleration.

When referring to weight the acceleration is equal the gravity constant (g=9.8m/s^2).

Hence, the weight of a mass of 1.20kg on Earth is:
W = 1.20 x 9.8 = 11.8

Correct answer: (d)

A potter’s wheel moves from rest to an angular speed of 0.20 rev/s in 23.8 s. Assuming constant angular acceleration, what is it

ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

$0.053 rad/s^2$

Explanation:

0.2 rev/s = 0.2 rev/s * 2π rad/rev = 0.4π rad/s

Since the angular acceleration is assumed to be constant, and the wheel's angular speed is increasing from rest (0 rad/s) to 0.4π rad/s within 23.8s. Then the angular acceleration must be

$\alpha = \Delta \omega / \Delta t = \frac{0.4 \pi - 0}{23.8} = 0.053 rad/s^2$

What is the acceleration of a proton moving with a speed of 9.5 m/s at right angles to a magnetic field of 1.8 T

Elenna [48]

Explanation:

F = qvBsin(angle)

F = 1.6 x 10^-19 x 9.5 x 1.8 x Sin (90)

F = 273.6 x 10^-20N

a = F/M

M of a proton = 1.67 x 10^-27kg

a = 273.6 x 10^-20/1.67 x 10^-27

a = 1638323353.29m/s
