Why are weight and mass used synonymously on earth?

Physics
1 answer:
Lisa [10]3 years ago
6 0
Weight and mass are used synonymously on earth because the value of g is constant on the earth because the weight of a body is the amount of force exerted by the Earths gravity on an object of finite mass. And, the mass of an object gives the amount of matter in the body and is measured in kilograms.

A horse does 910 J of work in 380 seconds while pulling a wagon. What is the power output of the horse? Round your answer to two
frutty [35]

Answer: 2.4 watts

Explanation:

Work done by horse = 910J

Time = 380 seconds

Power output of the horse = ?

Recall that power is the rate of doing work. Thus, power is workdone divided by time taken.

i.e Power = (work/time)

Power = 910J/380seconds

Power = 2.395 watts (rounded to two significant figures as 2.4 watts)

Thus, the power output of the horse is 2.4 watts

Static charges can be applied to neutral objects by friction, induction or conduction. What do all of these methods utilize to c
kvv77 [185]

Answer:

B) electrons

Explanation:

When charge is transferred by friction, induction or conduction, the charge carriers are the electrons.

In fact, protons and neutrons are found within the nucleus of the atoms, so they are tightly bound and they cannot be easily gained/given off. On the contrary, electrons are found in the electron clouds around the nucleus, so atoms can more easily gain/lose electrons, which become free and can be passed by an object to another.

The three methods of charging are:

- Friction: by rubbing two objects together, electrons may be transferred from one to another

- Induction: by moving a charged object closer to a neutral object, opposite charges in the neutral object migrate towards the opposite ends of the object, and if the object is connected to the ground, the charges of one polarity leave the object, leaving the object charged

- Conduction: by putting a charged object in contact with a neutral object, electrons can be transferred from the charged object to the neutral one

Please Explain two ways nitrogen gas in the atmosphere is changed into nitrogen compounds that plants can use. -Thank you all in
KIM [24]
Not sure if this is what your looking for, but hope it helps. Nitrogen gas can be changed into nitrogen compound through nitrogen fixation, which is the conversion of nitrogen gas to ammonia, that are absorbed by the plant to make protein. Another way is through animals eating plants and obtaining nitrogen, which is later released, by decomposes, when the organism dies.

A Blu-ray disc is approximately 11 centimeters in diameter. The drive motor of a Blu-ray player is able to rotate up to 10,000 r
stepladder [879]

Answer:

the maximum angular speed (in radians per second) of a Blu-ray disc as it rotates is 57.6 m/s

Explanation:

Given information:

diameter of the disc, d  = 11 cm, r = 5.5 cm = 0.055 m

angular speed ω = 10000 rev/min = (10000 rev/min)(2π rad/rev)(1/60 min/s)

                             = 1000π/3 rad/s

to calculate the maximum angular speed we can use the following formula

ω = v/r

v = ωr

  = (1000π/3)(0.055)

  = 57.6 m/s
