food product with 10 kg mass is being transported to thesurface of the moon,where the acceleration due to gravity is1.624 m/s2;

larisa [96]

Answer:

In SI units 98.1 N, 16.24 N

English units 22.053861 lbf, 3.6509144 lbf

Explanation:

g = Acceleration due to gravity

m = Mass = 10 kg

Weight on Earth

$W=mg\\\Rightarrow W=10\times 9.81\\\Rightarrow W=98.1\ N$

Converting to lbf

$98.1\times 0.22481=22.053861\ lbf$

On Moon

$W=10\times 1.624\\\Rightarrow W=16.24\ N$

Converting to lbf

$16.24\times 0.22481=3.6509144\ lbf$

In SI units 98.1 N, 16.24 N

English units 22.053861 lbf, 3.6509144 lbf

a man stands in a lift going downward with uniform velocity. he experiences a loss of weight at the start but not when lift is i

AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

It is explained in the explanation section

Explanation:

When the lift starts going downwards, it will start accelerating downwards. After a while, it will start moving with a constant velocity.

Constant velocity means that acceleration is zero and so the man will not feel any weight loss.

Now, Once the lift achieves constant velocity the acceleration is zero hence he will not experience any weight loss.

However, when the lift is in uniform motion, the lift and the man will fall down with an acceleration(a) that is less than that due to gravity(g) . Thus, the man will feel an apparent weight F which is not equal to zero.

A uniformly charged ring of radius 10.0 cm has a total charge of 75.0 mC. Find the electric field on the axis of the ring at (a)

wlad13 [49]

Answer:

(a) 6650246.305 N/C

(b) 24150268.34 N/C

(c) 6408227.848 N/C

(d) 665024.6305 N/C

Explanation:

Given:

Radius of the ring (r) = 10.0 cm = 0.10 m [1 cm = 0.01 m]

Total charge of the ring (Q) = 75.0 μC = $75\times 10^{-6}\ \mu C$ [1 μC = 10⁻⁶ C]

Electric field on the axis of the ring of radius 'r' at a distance of 'x' from the center of the ring is given as:

$E_x=\dfrac{kQx}{(x^2+r^2)^\frac{3}{2}}$

Plug in the given values for each point and solve.

(a)

Given:

$Q=75\times 10^{-6}\ \mu C$ , $r=0.01\ m, a=1.00\ cm=0.01\ m,k=9\times 10^{9}\ Nm^2/C^2$

Electric field is given as:

$E_x=\dfrac{(9\times 10^{9})(75\times 10^{-6})(0.01)}{((0.01)^2+(0.1)^2)^\frac{3}{2}}\\\\E_x=\dfrac{6750}{1.015\times 10^{-3}}\\\\E_x=6650246. 305\ N/C$

(b)

Given:

$Q=75\times 10^{-6}\ \mu C$ , $r=0.01\ m, a=5.00\ cm=0.05\ m,k=9\times 10^{9}\ Nm^2/C^2$

Electric field is given as:

$E_x=\dfrac{(9\times 10^{9})(75\times 10^{-6})(0.05)}{((0.05)^2+(0.1)^2)^\frac{3}{2}}\\\\E_x=\dfrac{33750}{1.3975\times 10^{-3}}\\\\E_x=24150268.34\ N/C$
