You have landed on an unknown planet, newtonia, and want to know what objects will weigh there. you find that when a certain too

l is pushed on a frictionless horizontal surface by a 12.7 n force, it moves 16.1 m in the first 2.50 s , starting from rest. you next observe that if you release this tool from rest at 10.3 m above the ground, it takes 2.88 s to reach the ground.

Refer to the diagram shown.

Because the surface is frictionless, the resistive for, R, is zero.

Let m = the mass of the object.
Let a =  acceleration due to the applied force.
Therefore
12.7 N = (m kg)*(a m/s²)
a = 12.7/m  m/s²

The object travels  16.1 m in 2.5 s, starting from rest. Therefore
16.1 N = (1/2)*(12.7/m m/s²)*(2.5 s)² = 39.6875/m  N
m = 16.1/39.6875 = 0.4057 kg

For freefall, let g =  acceleration due to gravity.
The time to fall from 10.3 m is 2.88 s, therefore
10.3 m = (1/2)*(g m/s²)*(2.88 s)² = 4.1472g m
g = 10.3/4.1472 = 2.484 m/s²

Answer:
The gravitational acceleration on the planet is 2.5 m/s² (nearest tenth)

sweet-ann [11.9K]
Finding out the acceleration 12/3 = 4m/s^2
thus it is descending so the actual acceleration would be 9.8-4 = 5.8 m/s^2
the weight will be 90*5.8 = 522 N
522/9.8 = 53.2 kg

A wave along a guitar string has a frequency of 540 Hz and a wavelength of 4.3 m. Calculate the velocity of the wave.
Virty [35]

Answer:

Velocity of wave =  2322 m /sec

Explanation:

We know that, Velocity of wave v = n  λ

Given, n = 540 Hz,  λ=4.3 m , v = ?

Putting the value of n and λ

Velocity of wave = 540 x 4.3 = 2322 m /sec

When do mountain formations occur?
Bezzdna [24]
Mountains can form many ways. a few are when divergent plates move abort and lava comes through the crack evenly forming up to what Hawaii is today. Another is when convergent plates collide moving upward forming mountains.
