Answer:

33.33 pounds          

Explanation:

Moon's effect of gravity is \frac{1}{6}^{th} the effect of gravity on Earth. Thus, an object which weighs w on Earth would weigh \frac{w}{6} on the moon.

Given:

weight of telescope on Earth, w = 200 pounds

Calculation:

weight of telescope on Moon = \frac{w}{6}      

= \frac{200}{6}=33.33 pounds

Thus, the weight of the telescope on moon would be 33.33 pounds.

Answer:

33,02 lb

Explanation:

g_m ≈ 1,62 m/s2

g ≈ 9,81 m/s2

m = 200 lb

m_m = m * g_m / m = 200 * 1,62 / 9,81 = 33,02 lb

yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

In the first law, an object will not change its motion unless a force acts on it. In the second law, the force on an object is equal to its mass times its acceleration. In the third law, when two objects interact, they apply forces to each other of equal magnitude and opposite direction.

A 65.8-kg person throws a 0.0413 kg snowball forward with a ground speed of 32.5 m/s. A second person, with a mass of 58.7 kg, c
guapka [62]

Answer:

v_{1} = 2.490\,\frac{m}{s}

v_{2} = 0.023\,\frac{m}{s}

Explanation:

The statement is described physically by means of the Principle of Momentum Conservation. Let assume that first person moves in the positive direction:

First Person

(65.8\,kg)\cdot (2.51\,\frac{m}{s}) = (65.8\,kg)\cdot v_{1} + (0.0413\,kg)\cdot (32.5\,\frac{m}{s} )

Second Person

(0.0413\,kg)\cdot (32.5\,\frac{m}{s})+(58.7\,kg)\cdot (0\,\frac{m}{s})=(0.0413\,kg+58.7\,kg)\cdot v_{2}

The final velocities of the two people after the snowball is exchanged is:

v_{1} = 2.490\,\frac{m}{s}

v_{2} = 0.023\,\frac{m}{s}

What are the four answers (in order) to fill in these blanks?<br><br> URGENT
ser-zykov [4K]

In a circuit, the electromotive force can be said to be the "source" of the "pushed electrons". This push then creates what is known as a current, which is the flow of electric charge through the circuit. This flow can be slowed down or restricted by a resistor, and this is also what can be harnessed in order to use electric power.

Explanation:

The electromotive force is the potential difference produced by the battery in the circuit. When the circuit is connected to the battery, this potential difference causes the electron to start moving towards the point at higher potential: in this sense, the electromotive force is said to be the "source" of the "pushed electrons".

This flow of electrons moving in the circuit is known as current.

Then, in the circuit, it is possible to place a piece of circuit with a smaller cross-section that restricts the flow of electrons: this component is known as resistor, and its property of restricting the flow of electron is known as resistance.

In a circuit, electromotive force (V), current (I) and resistance (R) are related by Ohm's law:

V=RI

Finally, when a current passes through a resistor, part of the electric energy is converted into thermal energy, and some power is dissipated through the resistor. The power dissipated is given by

P=I^2 R

This power can be harnessed, for instance, if the resistor is connected to a light bulb: the energy is transformed into heat and light, and so the light bulb turns on, providing illumination.
