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
This question is incomplete, the complete question is;
Scientists studying an anomalous magnetic field find that it is inducing a circular electric field in a plane perpendicular to the magnetic field. The electric field strength 1.5 m from the center of the circle is 7 mV/m.
At what rate is the magnetic field changing?
Answer:
the magnetic field changing at the rate of 9.33 m T/s
Explanation:
Given the data in the question;
Electric field E = 7 mV/m
radius r = 1.5 m
Now, from Faraday law of induction;
∫E.dl = d∅/dt
E∫dl = A( dB/dt )
E( 2πr ) = πr² ( dB/dt )
( 0.007 ) = (r/2) ( dB/dt )
( 0.007 ) = 0.75 ( dB/dt )
dB/dt = 0.007 / 0.75
dB/dt = 0.00933 T/s
dB/dt = ( 0.00933 × 1000) m T/s
dB/dt = 9.33 m T/s
Therefore, the magnetic field changing at the rate of 9.33 m T/s
normal force because it is perpendicular to the surface
