The force of gravity is the force with which massively large objects such as the earth attracts another object towards itself. All objects of the earth exert a gravity that is directed towards the center of the earth. Therefore, the force of gravity of the earth is equal to the mass of the object times acceleration due to gravity.  

F = ma
4.9N = m (9.8 m/s^2), note that N (newtons) = kg-m/s^2
<u>m = 0.5 kg</u>
<u>The mass of the object is 0.5kg.</u>

If a 50microAmps current is flowing then how many electrons pass a point each minute to 2 sig figs? Please add an explanation as
defon
The equation you need to use is Q=IT where Q is the charge in C, I is the current in Amps and T is the time in seconds.

So we have T = 60s
I = 50 \times 10^-^6A
let's work out Q
Q=IT = (50\times 10^{-6}) \times 60 = 3 \times 10^-^3C
this is the total charge passing a point in a minute so divide by the charge of one electron (1.6 \times 10^{-19}) to find the number of electrons passing the point in a minute which equals 1.875 \times 10^{16}

Increasing the mass attached to a spring will decrease the angular frequency of its vibrations. True or False
Scrat [10]

Answer:

decreases

Explanation:

The angular frequency of the mass is given by

\omega =\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}

where, k is the spring constant and m be the mass of the body which is doing oscillations.

if the mass of the body increases, so the value of angular frequency decreases, as the angular frequency is inversely proportional to the square root of the mass of the body.
