M=20 kg
g on earth=9.8m sec^-1
F=m*a
F=20*9.8
F=196N

Answer:

D. 196 N

Explanation:

The force of gravity acting on an object located at the Earth's surface is given by:

F=mg

where

m is the mass of the object

g is the acceleration due to gravity

In this problem:

- m=20 kg is the mass of the object

- g = 9.81 m/s^2 is the acceleration due to gravity at Earth's surface

Substituting these data into the formula, we get

F=(20 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)=196.2 N \sim 196 N

Why do radio waves have the lowest frequency of all the waves on the electromagnetic spectrum?
lara [203]

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves are the waves which are created as the result of the electrical waves which are perpendicular to each other and also perpendicular to the direction of propagation.

Electromagnetic spectrum is range of the frequencies and their respective wavelengths of the various type of the electromagnetic radiation.

In order of the increasing frequency and the photon energy and the decreasing wavelength the spectrum are:  

radio waves, microwaves, infrared radiation, visible light, ultraviolet radiation, X-rays and gamma rays.

The energy of the radio waves photons is the lowest of all the other waves in the electromagnetic spectrum.

Also, E={h\times \nu}

Where,  

h is Plank's constant having value 6.626\times 10^{-34}\ Js

Thus, energy is directly proportional to the frequency. The radio waves have the lowest frequency.

A bucket of water is being raised from a well using a rope. If the bucket of water has a mass of 6.2 kg, how much force (in N) m
Sholpan [36]

Answer:

6.2N force

Explanation:

According to Newton's second law of motion, force is equal to the product of the mass of a body and its acceleration. Mathematically,

Force = mass × acceleration

Given mass of bucket of water = 6.2kg

acceleration of the bucket = 1m/s²

Force exerted on the rope = 6.2 × 1

= 6.2N
