weight = mass x acceleration due to gravity

= 80 kg x 1.6252 m/s^2 = 130 N (approximately).

The correct answer is A. 128 N

Your answer would be approximately 128 N. Here is how!
Acceleration on the Earth is 9.8m/sec^2... on the moon, it's 1/6 that, or about 1.6m/sec^2. 

<span>So, 80kg X 1.6m/sec^2 = 128N</span>

Supersonic aircraft produce a loud noise called a sonic boom. Look at the waves hitting the observer. Based on what you see, wha
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

Sonic boom is an impulsive noise similar to thunder. It is caused by an object moving faster than sound -- about 750 miles per hour at sea level. An aircraft traveling through the atmosphere continuously produces air-pressure waves similar to the water waves caused by a ship's bow.

The world's fastest humans can reach speeds of about 11 m/s.In order to increase his gravitational potential energy by an amount
xeze [42]

Answer:

The sprinter need to climb 6.17 m

Explanation:

From the question,

Ep = Ek...................... Equation 1

Where Ep = potential energy, Ek = kinetic energy.

therefore,

mgh = 1/2mv².................... Equation 2

Where m = mass of the human, v = speed, h = height, g = acceleration due to gravity.

making h the subject of formula in equation 2

h = 1/2v²/g...................... Equation 3

Given: v = 11 m/s

Constant: g = 9.8 m/s²

Substituting these values into equation 3,

h = 1/2(11²)/9.8

h = 6.17 m.

Therefore the sprinter need to climb 6.17 m
