A bowling ball has a weight of 70 Newton’s on earth. What is it’s mass on earth? What’s it mass on the moon?

Weight = (mass) x (gravity)

  70 N  =  (mass) x (9.8 m/s²)

Divide each side by  (9.8 m/s²) , and you have

    mass  =  70 N / 9.8 m/s²  =  7.14 kg.
___________________________ 

Mass on the moon:

Mass doesn't change.  It's a number that belongs to the bowling ball,
no matter where the ball goes.  If the mass of the bowling ball is 7.14 kg
anywhere, then it's 7.14 kg everywhere ... on Earth, on the moon, on Mars, rolling around in the trunk of my car, or floating in intergalactic space.

However, WEIGHT depends on the gravity wherever the ball happens to be
at the moment.

The acceleration of gravity on the moon is 1.622 m/s².
So the WEIGHT of the ball on the moon is

        (7.14 kg) x (1.622 m/s²) =  11.58 Newtons

                             That's only about 16% of its weight on Earth.

Question 8
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

96 Joules

Explanation:

The formula for work is Fnet times displacement (F x d = w) which, in this case, 48N is the Fnet and 2m as the displacement. Then all we need to do is multiply these two and we get 96 Joules.

In a ballistics test, a 24 g bullet traveling horizontally at 1200 m/s goes through a 31-cm-thick 320 kg stationary target and e
Zanzabum

Answer:

The  velocity is  v_t  =  0.02175 \  m/s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  mass of the bullet is  m_b  =  0.024 \  kg

    The initial speed of the bullet is  u_b  =  1200 \  m/s

   The mass of the target is  m_t  =  320 \  kg

    The  initial velocity of target is  u_t  =  0  \ m/s

    The  final velocity of the bullet is  is  v_b  =  910 \  m/s

   

Generally according to the law of momentum conservation we have that

      m_b *  u_b  +  m_t *  u_t  =  m_b *  v_b  +  m_t  *  v_t

=>   0.024  *  1200  +  320 *  0  =  0.024 *  910   +  320  *  v_t

=>    v_t  =  0.02175 \  m/s

Mrac [35]

Answer:

∅ = 0.26°

Explanation:

Bragg's law states that:

n×λ = 2×d×sin(∅)

<em>where:</em>

  • <em>d is the lattice spacing.</em>
  • <em>λ is the wavelength of the rays.</em>
  • <em>n is the order of the diffracted rays, n = 1.</em>

then:

sin(∅) = λ/2×d

    ∅ = sin^-1(λ/2×d)

    ∅ = 0.26°
