Given parameters:
Mass on earth = 50kg
Unknown:
Mass on planet Xenon = ?
Weight on planet Xenon = ?
Mass is the amount of matter contained in a particular substance.
Weight is the force on a body and it is derived from the product of mass and acceleration due to gravity.
Weight = mass x acceleration due to gravity
Planet Xenon has half the gravitational force of Earth.
This translated gives
= 4.9m/s²
Now, mass is always the same every where if the amount of matter in a substance does not change.
In this problem, mass = 50kg on planet xenon.
Weight = mass x acceleration due to gravity = 50 x 4.9 = 245N
The weight on Xenon is 245N and the mass is 50kg
Answer:
32000 N
Explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Initial velocity (u) = 40 m/s
Distance (s) = 10 m
Final velocity (v) = 0 m/s
Mass (m) of car = 400 Kg
Force (F) =?
Next, we shall determine the acceleration of the the car. This can be obtained as follow:
Initial velocity (u) = 40 m/s
Distance (s) = 10 m
Final velocity (v) = 0 m/s
Acceleration (a) =?
v² = u² + 2as
0² = 40² + (2 × a × 10)
0 = 1600 + 20a
Collect like terms
0 – 1600 = 20a
–1600 = 20a
Divide both side by –1600
a = –1600 / 20
a = –80 m/s²
The negative sign indicate that the car is decelerating i.e coming to rest.
Finally, we shall determine the force needed to stop the car. This can be obtained as follow:
Mass (m) of car = 400 Kg
Acceleration (a) = –80 m/s²
Force (F) =?
F = ma
F = 400 × –80
F = – 32000 N
NOTE: The negative sign indicate that the force is in opposite direction to the motion of the car.
Answer:
R₂ / R₁ = D / L
Explanation:
The resistance of a metal is
R = ρ L / A
Where ρ is the resistivity of aluminum, L is the length of the resistance and A its cross section
We apply this formal to both configurations
Small face measurements (W W)
The length is
L = W
Area
A = W W = W²
R₁ = ρ W / W² = ρ / W
Large face measurements (D L)
Length L = D= 2W
Area A = W L
R₂ = ρ D / WL = ρ 2W / W L = 2 ρ/L
The relationship is
R₂ / R₁ = 2W²/L
It means that they were set earlier therefor they are older.
