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?

Physics

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.

An elevator supported by a single cable descends a shaft at a constant speed. The only forces acting on the elevator are the ten
Gala2k [10]

Answer:

E) The net work done by the two forces is zero joules.

Explanation:

As the elevator is moving at a constant speed, it is the same as being stationary. The tension in the cable perfectly balances the gravitational force. Work done by gravity = mgh

Work done by the tension = -Th

where, T = tension force. The negative sign comes as the direction of T is opposite to the direction of g. As the elevator moves at a constant speed, the magnitude of the two forces must be equal. Therefore, the total work done,

W = (mg - T)h = 0

The brakes on your automobile are capable of creating a deceleration of 5.0 m/s2. If you are going 135 km/h and suddenly see a s
poizon [28]

Answer:

3.33 seconds

Explanation:

We can use the velocity formula [ v = u + at ] to solve.

Find the value "u".

135km/h -> 135km*1000m/3600s -> 37.5m/s

Find the value "v".

75km/h -> 75km*1000m/3600s -> 20.83m/s

Keep in mind we are dealing with "deceleration" so when we input 5.0m/s into the formula, it will be a negative value.

Now, find "t" which is the value we aren't given with the values we're given in the question.

20.83 = 37.5 - 5t

-16.67 = -5t

3.33 = t

Best of luck!

A projectile of mass m is fired straight upward from the surface of an airless planet of radius R and mass M with an initial spe
motikmotik

Answer:

K = G Mm / 9R

Explanation:

Expression for escape velocity V_e = \sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R} }

Kinetic energy at the surface = 1/2 m V_e ²

= 1/2 x m x 2GM/R

GMm/R

Potential energy at the surface

= - GMm/R

Total energy = 0

At height 9R ( 8R from the surface )

potential energy

= - G Mm / 9R

Kinetic energy = K

Total energy will be zero according to law of conservation of mechanical energy

so

K  - G Mm / 9R = 0

K = G Mm / 9R

What information is given by the formula of an ionic compound?
Sergio [31]
MgCl2 is ionic compound.........Mg +2 and Cl -1
both charges are cross multiplied to each element......formula tells us that to balance the positive and negative charges on both sides they are cross multiplied........MgCl2......meaning there is one atom of Mg and 2 atoms of Cl.......
