A bag of sugar weighs 5.00 lb on Earth. What would it weigh in newtons on the Moon, where the free-fall acceleration is one-sixt

h that on Earth? Repeat for Jupiter, where g is 2.64 times that on Earth. Find the mass of the bag of sugar in kilograms at each of the three locations.

Answer:

Earth: 22.246 N

Moon: 3.71 N

Jupiter: 58.72 N

Explanation:

The mass of an object will remain constant in any location, its weight however, can fluctuate depending on its location. For example, a golf ball will weigh less on the moon, but its mass will not be different if it was on earth.

To calculate anything, we need to convert to standard measurements.

5.00 lbs = 2.27 kg

On earth, gravity is measured to be 9.8 m/s², so the weight in Newtons on Earth would be: (2.27 kg) x (9.8 m/s²) = 22.246 N

Repeated on the moon where gravity is (9.8 m/s²) x (1/6) = 1.633 m/s², so the weight in Newtons on the moon would be: (2.27 kg) x (1.633 m/s²) = 3.71 N

Repeated on Jupiter where gravity is (9.8 m/s²) x (2.64) = 25.87 m/s², so the wight in Newtons on Jupiter would be: (2.27 kg) x (25.87 m/s²) = 58.72 N

Answer:

3: I can´t see the text/image, but it depend on the mass and the force applied to the ball, if both are too high, it will be harder to make a home run. (Second law)

4:It would be easier to make a home run because there is no interruption between the ball and the space the same travels. (Third law)

Hanna tosses a ball straight up with enough speed to rermain in the air for several seconds
Ipatiy [6.2K]
What a relief !  That gives her time to step out of the way, before the ball
comes crashing down in the same place where she was standing.

</span><span>
 You can find the halogen or "</span>salt formers" in the group 17 of the periodic table. These are:

 - Fluorine.
 -Chlorine.
 - Bromine.
 - Iodine.

Four cylindrical wires of different sizes are made of the same material. Which of the following combinations of length and cross
anzhelika [568]

Answer:

Explanation:

For resistance of a wire , the formula is as follows .

R = ρ L/S

where ρ is specific resistance , L is length and S is cross sectional area of wire .

for first wire resistance

R₁ =  ρ 3L/3a = ρ L/a

for second wire , resistance

R₂ = ρ 3L/6a

= .5 ρ L/a

For 3 rd wire resistance

R₃ = ρ 6L/3a

= 2ρ L/a

For fourth wire , resistance

R₄ = ρ 6L/6a

=  ρ L/a

So the smallest resistance is of second wire .

Its resistance is .5 ρ L/a
