W=gm
where g - gravitation 
m - mass
w - weight
as gravitation equals to zero, multiplying by 0 gives W=0

A disk of radius 10 cm speeds up from rest. it turns 60 radians reaching an angular velocity of 15 rad/s. what was the angular a
stepan [7]

Answer:

a) α = 1.875 \frac{rad}{s^{2} }

b) t = 8 s

Explanation:

Given:

ω1 = 0 \frac{rad}{s}

ω2 = 15 \frac{rad}{s}

theta (angular displacement) = 60 rad

*side note: you can replace regular, linear variables in kinematic equations with angular variables (must entirely replace equations with angular variables)*

a) α = ?

(ω2)^2 = (ω1)^2 + 2α(theta)

15^{2} = 0^{2} + 2(α)(60)

225 = 120α

α = 1.875 \frac{rad}{s^{2} }

b)

α = (ω2-ω1)/t

t = (ω2-ω1)/α = (15-0)/1.875 = 8

t = 8 s

Find the weight of an astronaut whose mass is 75 kg on the moon
gladu [14]
The formula for weight is always weight=mass X gravitational field strength.
We already know the mass is 75kg.
The gravitational field strength on the moon is 1.6N. To find out the weight, we can substitute these values in to the formula.
Weight=75 X 1.6
Weight= 120N
Weight is measured on Neutons as it is a force.
