The acceleration due to gravity on Earth is 9. 8 m/s2. What is the weight of a 75 kg person on Earth? 9. 8 N 75 N 85 N 735 N.
Illusion [34]

The weight of a 75 kg person on Earth, which has an acceleration due to gravity of 9.8m/s², is 735N.

CALCULATE WEIGHT:

Weight is a force, hence, measured in Newton. It is a function of an object's mass in relation to gravity.

Weight of an object can be calculated using the following formula:

W = mg

Where;

  • W = weight (N)
  • m = mass (kg)
  • g = acceleration due to gravity (m/s²)

The weight of the person in this question can be calculated as follows:

W = 75 × 9.8

W = 735N

Therefore, the weight of a 75 kg person on Earth, which has an acceleration due to gravity of 9.8m/s², is 735N.

Equation of motion description is v=20+2t.How big is the initial speed,acceleration?
trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

the initial velocity is 20 m/s   and  the acceleration is 2 m/s²

Explanation:

Given equation of motion, v = 20 + 2t

If V represents the final velocity of the object, then the initial velocity and acceleration of the object is calculated as follows;

From first kinematic equation;

v = u + at

where;

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

t is time of motion

If we compare  (v = u + at)   to     (v = 20 + 2t)

then, u = 20    and  

         a = 2

Therefore, the initial velocity is 20 m/s   and  the acceleration is 2 m/s²

5. An object has a momentum of 4,000 kg-m/s and a mass of 115 kg. It crashes into another object that has a mass of 100 kg, and
marishachu [46]

Answer:

D. 18.60

Explanation:

By the law of conservation, the momentum is neither loss nor gained but instead transfered. When they crash into each other, and stick, they combine to create a total mass of 215 kg. Since the momentum is transfered, the two objects, combined, have a total momentum of 4000 kg-m/s. We know that momentum equals mass times velocity. You then divide 4000 by 215 and get approximately 18.6 m/s

Titus drives his jetski a distance of 1000 meters in 7.045 seconds. How fast was he moving in meters per second? How fast was he
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

a) v = 141.9 m/s

b) v = 317.4 miles/h

Explanation:

a) How fast was he moving in meters per second?

v = \frac{d}{t} = \frac{1000 m}{7.045 s} = 141.9 m/s

Hence, the jet ski is moving at 141.9 meters per second.

b) How fast was he moving in miles per hour?

v = \frac{d}{t} = \frac{1000 m}{7.045 s} = 141.9 m/s*\frac{3600 s}{1 h}*\frac{1 mile}{1609.34 m} = 317.4 miles/h      

Therefore, the jet ski is moving at 317.4 miles per hour.

I hope it helps you!
