Since astronauts in orbit are apparently weightless, a clever method of measuring their masses is needed to monitor their mass g

ains or losses to adjust diets. One way to do this is to exert a known force on an astronaut and measure the acceleration produced. Suppose a net external force of magnitude 52.0 N is exerted and the magnitude of the astronaut's acceleration is measured to be 0.936 m/s2. Calculate her mass.

Answer:

55.56kg

Explanation:

Given:

F= 52N

a=0.936m/s²

Applyinc Newton's second law, that states: force is equal to mass times acceleration.

F = ma

m=F/a =>52 / 0.936

m=55.56kg

An empty parallel plate capacitor is connected between the terminals of a 18.8-V battery and charges up. The capacitor is then d
Basile [38]

Answer:

p.d' = 37.6 V

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Potential difference p.d=18.8V

New Capacitor C_1=C_2/2

Generally the equation for Capacitor capacitance is mathematically given by

C=\frac{eA}{d}

Generally the equation for New p.d' is mathematically given by

 C_2V=C_1*p.d'

  p.d' = 2V

 p.d'= 2 * 18.8

 p.d' = 37.6 V

If a person pulls a cart to the right at 5N of force and another person pulls to the left with a 15N of force? What is the net f
zepelin [54]

Answer:

The net force is 10 [N] acting to the left

Explanation:

To solve this type of problem we must make a sum of the forces acting on the cart, since the forces are vectors, we know that vectors can be added, In this way forces that go in the same direction are added and forces in opposite directions are subtracted.

FL = force to the left = - 15 [N]

FR = force to the right = 5 [N]

FT = Resultant force [N]

- 15 + 5 = FT

FT = - 10 [N]

The negative sign tells us that the force acts to the left.

A standing wave is created in a microwave oven by reflecting microwaves from the walls of the oven. The cold spots, the nodes in
Ratling [72]

The frequency of the wave is given as 2.5 * 10^9 Hz.

<h3>What is wavelength?</h3>

The term wavelength is the distance that is covered by a wave. It is also referred to as the distance between two successive crests or two successive troughs. It can also be defined as half of the distance between two nodes.

Now nodes are the points in which there is no movement while antinodes are the points in which there is movement.

Given that;

c = λf

c = speed of light =  3 * 10^8 m/s

λ = 2(6cm) = 12 cm or 12 * 10^-2 m

f = ??

Thus;

f = c/ λ

f =  3 * 10^8 m/s/12 * 10^-2 m

f = 2.5 * 10^9 Hz
