The weight of anything is

(the thing's mass) times (gravity in the place where the thing is located).

Gravity on Earth is 9.8 m/s
² .
90 kg of mass weighs  (90 kg) · (9.8 m/s²)  =  882 Newtons on Earth.

Gravity on the Moon is 1.62 m/s² .
The same 90 kg weighs (90 kg)·(1.62 m/s²) = 146 Newtons on the Moon.

Gravity on Mars is 3.7 m/s² .
The same 90 kg of mass weighs (90 kg)·(3.7 m/s²) = 333 Newtons on Mars.

Answer:

8.46E+1

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Charge 1 (q₁) = 39 C

Charge 2 (q₂) = –53 C

Force (F) of attraction = 26×10⁸ N

Electrical constant K) = 9×10⁹ Nm²/C²

Distance apart (r) =?

The distance between the two charges can be obtained as follow:

F = Kq₁q₂ / r²

26×10⁸ = 9×10⁹ × 39 × 53 / r²

26×10⁸ = 1.8603×10¹³ / r²

Cross multiply

26×10⁸ × r² = 1.8603×10¹³

Divide both side by 26×10⁸

r² = 1.8603×10¹³ / 26×10⁸

r² = 7155

Take the square root of both side

r = √7155

r = 84.6 m

r = 8.46E+1 m

A speed-time graph is shown below:
Juliette [100K]

Answer:

It traveled 4 centimeters.

Explanation:

In a speed versus time graph, the distance travelled is given by the area under the graph.

In this graph we have the following:

- The speed of the object is v = 1 cm/s between time t = 0 s and t = 4 s

- The speed of the object is v = 0 cm/s between time t = 4 s and t = 8 s

Since the speed in the second part is zero, the distance travelled in the second part is zero. So, the only distance travelled by the object is the distance travelled during the first part, which is equal to the area of the first rectangle:

d=v\Delta t=(1)(4-0)=4 cm

lora16 [44]

Answer:

D &B

Explanation:

Using Fleming right hand rule that States that if the fore-finger, middle finger and the thumb of left hand are stretched mutually perpendicular to each other, such that fore-finger points in the direction of magnetic field, the middle finger points in the direction of the motion of positive charge, then the thumb points to the direction of the force

Answer:

Explanation:

The inclined plane

An inclined plane consists of a sloping surface; it is used for raising heavy bodies. The plane offers a mechanical advantage in that the force required to move an object up the incline is less than the weight being raised (discounting friction). The steeper the slope, or incline, the more nearly the required force approaches the actual weight. Expressed mathematically, the force F required to move a block D up an inclined plane without friction is equal to its weight W times the sine of the angle the inclined plane makes with the horizontal (θ). The equation is F = W sin θ.

The lever

A lever is a bar or board that rests on a support called a fulcrum. A downward force exerted on one end of the lever can be transferred and increased in an upward direction at the other end, allowing a small force to lift a heavy weight.

The wedge

A wedge is an object that tapers to a thin edge. Pushing the wedge in one direction creates a force in a sideways direction. It is usually made of metal or wood and is used for splitting, lifting, or tightening, as in securing a hammer head onto its handle.

The wheel and axle

A wheel and axle is made up of a circular frame (the wheel) that revolves on a shaft or rod (the axle). In its earliest form it was probably used for raising weights or water buckets from wells.

Its principle of operation is best explained by way of a device with a large gear and a small gear attached to the same shaft. The tendency of a force, F, applied at the radius R on the large gear to turn the shaft is sufficient to overcome the larger force W at the radius r on the small gear. The force amplification, or mechanical advantage, is equal to the ratio of the two forces (W:F) and also equal to the ratio of the radii of the two gears (R:r)
