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.

What area must the plates of a capacitor be if they have a charge of 5.7uC and an electric field of 3.1 kV/mm between them? O 0.
kirill [66]

Answer:

Area of the plates of a capacitor, A = 0.208 m²

Explanation:

It is given that,

Charge on the parallel plate capacitor, q = 5.7\ \mu C=5.7\times 10^{-6}\ C

Electric field, E = 3.1 kV/mm = 3100000 V/m

The electric field of a parallel plates capacitor is given by :

E=\dfrac{q}{A\epsilon_o}

A=\dfrac{q}{E\epsilon_o}

A=\dfrac{5.7\times 10^{-6}\ C}{3100000\ V/m\times 8.85\times 10^{-12}\ F/m}

A = 0.208 m²

So, the area of the plates of a capacitor is 0.208 m². Hence, this is the required solution.

What is the magnitude of g at a height above Earth's surface where free-fall acceleration equals 6.5m/s^2?
Tom [10]

The magnitude of 'g' at a place is expressed in terms of
the acceleration due to gravity.

You have said that the gravitational acceleration at that place
is 6.5 m/s².  So THAT's the magnitude of 'g' right there.
