Answer:

His weight on Earth is 1097.6N

Explanation:

You have to apply Newton's Second Law, F = m×a where F is force, m is mass and a is accerleration. Then, you have to substitute the following values into the equation :

f = m \times a

Let m = 112kg,

Let a = 9.8m/s²,

f = 112 \times 9.8

f = 1097.6

If a 990 kg car is on the road and the Ff is 360 n what is the normal force
Veseljchak [2.6K]
Given that a car is in the road, there is only movement in the x-direction. There is no movement in the y-direction.

Looking at the y-direction for the normal force:

F = N - mg
0 = N - mg, (no movement in y-dir.)
N = mg
N = (990)(9.8)
N = 9702 newtons

The normal force exerted on the car by the road is 9702 newtons.

Answer:

The magnitude of the centripetal force that acts on him

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass = 80.0 kg

Distance = 6.10 m

Speed = 6.80 m/s

We need to calculate the magnitude of the centripetal force that acts on him

Using formula of the centripetal force

F_{c}=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}

Where, F = force

m = mass

v = speed

r = distance

Put the value into the formula

F_{c}=\dfrac{80.0\times(6.80)^2}{6.10}

F_{c}=606.4\ N

Hence, The magnitude of the centripetal force that acts on him

How do you think the amount of a material affects its tendency to sink or float?
Viktor [21]

Answer:

Things float when they are positively buoyant, or less dense than the fluid in which they are sitting. This does not mean that an object has to be lighter than the fluid, as in the case of a boat; objects just need to have a greater ratio of empty space to mass than the fluid.
