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.

Which of the following is defined as an area of the body surface that is innervated by a single spinal​ nerve?
romanna [79]

Answer:

Dermatome. (Ans. C).

Explanation:

Dermatome is defined as the area of the human anatomy skin which is supplied by single spinal sensory nerve root. At the spinal cord these spinal sensory nerve enter the nerve root, and the branches of spinal sensory reach to the periphery of the body.

The sensory nerve which is present in the periphery of the body are the type of nerve which helps to transmit signals from sensation such as pain, temperature, etc. to the spinal cord from some specific area of the anatomy.

Two 60 cm parallel disks are separated by 40 cm and are aligned directly on top of each other. Both disks are black surfaces wit
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

775.48 W

Explanation:

given,

diameter of disk = 0.6 cm

length of the disk = 0.4 m

T₁ = 450 K         T₂ = 450 K      T₃ = 300 K

\dfrac{d}{r_1}=\dfrac{0.4}{0.3} = 1.33

now,

the value of view factor (F₁₂)corresponding to 1.33

F₁₂ = 0.265

F₁₃ = 1 - 0.265 = 0.735

now,

net rate of radiation heat transfer from the disk to the environment:

=\dot{Q_{1-3}+Q_{2-3}} = 2 \dot{Q_{1-3}}

       = 2 F₁₃ A₁ σ (T₁⁴ - T₃⁴)

       = 2 x 0.735 x π x (0.3)² x (5.67 x 10⁻⁸ W/m²) (450⁴ - 300⁴)

       = 775.48 W

Net radiation heat transfer from the disks to the environment = 775.48 W

KatRina [158]

The acceleration is found to be 2 m/s², final velocity after 10 seconds is 20 m/s and the final position after 10 seconds is 100 m away from the starting point.

Answer:

Explanation:

As per Newton's second law of motion, acceleration of any object is directly proportional to the net external unbalanced force acting on that object and inversely proportional to the mass of the object.

Since there are two forces acting on the box in opposite direction, the net force will be the difference of horizontal and frictional force acting on the object.

Net force = Horizontal force - Frictional force = 18 N - 8 N = 10 N.

Now, from second law of motion, Acceleration = \frac{Net force}{Mass}

So, acceleration = 10 N /5 kg = 2 m/s².

Since, acceleration exerted by the box is found to be 2 m/s², we can determine the final velocity of the object after 10 seconds using the first equation of motion.

v = u + at, Here v is the final velocity and u is the initial velocity which is zero for the present case. Other parameters like a is found to be 2 m/s² and time is 10 seconds.

So Final velocity v = 0+(2×10)=20 m/s.

And the final position can be determined using the second equation of motion.

s = ut+1/2at²

Final position = (0×10)+(0.5×2×10×10)= 100 m.

So the final position is 100 m.

Thus, the acceleration is found to be 2 m/s², final velocity after 10 seconds is 20 m/s and the final position after 10 seconds is 100 m away from the starting point.
