How do you find the weight of an object when given the mass and acceleration?
murzikaleks [220]

Weight of an object is given by the formula W = m x g , where

m : mass of the object

g : gravitational acceleration

It is <u>independent of the horizontal </u><u>acceleration</u>.  

<h3>What do we mean by weight of an object?</h3>

Weight is a gauge of how strongly gravity is<u> pulling something down.</u> It is dependent on the object's mass, or how much matter it consists of. It also depends on the <u>object's uniformly distributed</u> downward acceleration caused by gravity.

This equation can be used to express weight:

 W = m x g

<h3>What is the difference between weight and mass of an object?</h3>

In everyday speech, the phrases "mass" and "weight" are frequently used interchangeably; nevertheless, the two concepts don't have the same meaning. In contrast to weight, which is a <u>measurement of</u> how the <u>force</u> of gravity works upon a mass, mass is the <u>amount of substance</u> in a material.

Why is figure 5 an unhelpful visualization tool for this data set? <br><br> Please help!
Paraphin [41]

Explanation:

Because the temperature and the radiation are not correlated, they're not represented as functions of each other, they're represented as independent variables thus using graph 5 you cannot figure out how one affect another

What is nuclear fission? why is this process important to stars?
KIM [24]

Nuclear fusion is a reaction in which two or more atomic nuclei come very close and then collide at a very high speed and join to form a new nucleus. This process is important to stars because they get their energy from the nuclear fusion process

Hooke's law describes a certain light spring of unstretched length 31.8 cm. when one end is attached to the top of a doorframe a
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

extension in the spring = 40.4 - 31.8 = 8.6 cm = 8.6 x 10⁻² m .

kx = mg

k is spring constant , x is extension , m is mass

k x 8.6 x 10⁻² = 7.52 x 9.8

k = 856.93 N/m

=  857 x 10⁻³ KN /m

b ) Both side is pulled by force of 188 N .

Tension in spring = 188N

kx = T

856.93 x = 188

x = .219.38 m

= 21.938 cm

= 21.9 cm .

length of spring = 31.8 + 21.9

= 53.7 cm .

A box is at rest on a table. What can you say about the forces acting on the box?
Nikitich [7]
You can tell a lot about an object that's not moving,
and also a lot about the forces acting on it:

==> If the box is at rest on the table, then it is not accelerating.

==> Since it is not accelerating, I can say that the forces on it are balanced.

==> That means that the sum of all forces acting on the box is zero,
and the effect of all the forces acting on it is the same as if there were
no forces acting on it at all.

==> This in turn means that all of the horizontal forces are balanced,
AND all of the vertical forces are balanced.

Horizontal forces:
sliding friction, somebody pushing the box

All of the forces on this list must add up to zero. So ...

(sliding friction force) = (pushing force), in the opposite direction.

If nobody pushing the box, then sliding friction force = zero.

Vertical forces:
gravitational force (weight of the box, pulling it down)
normal force (table pushing the box up)

All of the forces on this list must add up to zero, so ...

(Gravitational force down) + (normal force up) = zero

(Gravitational force down) = -(normal force up) .
