Here's the part you need to know:

       (Weight of anything) =

                 (the thing's mass)
times
                 (acceleration of gravity in the place where the thing is) .

                 Weight = (mass ) x (gravity) .

That's always true everywhere.
You should memorize it.

For the astronaut on Saturn . . .

                   Weight = (mass ) x (gravity) .

                
  Weight =  (68 kg) x (10.44 m/s²)

                        
      =    709.92 newtons .
__________________________________

On Earth, gravity is only  9.8 m/s².
So as long as the astronaut is on Earth, his weight is only

                                   (68 kg) x (9.8 m/s²)

                               =    666.4 newtons .

Notice that his mass is his mass ... it doesn't change
no matter where he goes. 

But his weight changes in different places, because
it depends on the gravity in each place.

The axis of the earth is<br> Tilted about 23.5 degrees<br> Vertical<br> Vertical
melisa1 [442]

Answer:

The axis of rotation of the Earth is tilted at an angle of 23.5 degrees away from vertical, perpendicular to the plane of our planet's orbit around the sun. The tilt of the Earth's axis is important, in that it governs the warming strength of the sun's energy.

The sum of the charges on both plates of a capacitor is zero. What does a capacitor store?
erma4kov [3.2K]

Current is the overall flow of electrons through a conductor and can be defined as the speed of the flow of electrons. Resistance is defined as the opposition to current flow. Circuits must have resistance  to convert electrical energy into light, heat, or motion. Resistance is called the directional movement of electrons that form an electric current. It is also known that  electrons do not move freely in the crystal structure of a conductor. Resistance is the inherent opposition to the flow of electrons present in a conductor. Inductance is the property of any circuit to resist any change in current while capacitance is the property of the circuit to resist any change in voltage.

<h3>What is capacitor?</h3>

A capacitor is an electronic component that stores an electrical charge. Capacitors consist of two close conductors (usually plates) separated by a dielectric material. The plates accumulate an electrical charge when connected to a power source. The main purpose of a capacitor is to store electrostatic energy in an electric field and, if possible, to supply this energy to an electrical circuit.

To avoid dangerous circuit failure, they allow alternating current to flow but block direct current. Capacitors are widely used as circuit elements in many common electrical devices. Commercial capacitors are made of interwoven metal foils with paraffin or Mylar-impregnated paper as the dielectric.

g You want to make simultaneous measurements of the position and momentum of an electron and a proton that are moving along a st
Maslowich

Answer:

1832

Explanation:

From;

Δp Δx = h/4π

Δp = uncertainty in momentum

Δx = uncertainty in position

h= Plank's constant

But p =mv hence, Δp= Δmv

m= mass, v= velocity

mass of electron = 9.11 * 10^-31 Kg

Mass of proton = 1.67 * 10^-27 Kg

since m is a constant,

Δv = h/Δxm4π

For proton;

Δv = 6.6 * 10^-34/4 * 3.14 * 1.67 * 10^-27 * 1 * 10^-10

Δv = 315 ms-1

For electron;

Δv = 6.6 * 10^-34/4 * 3.14 * 9.11 * 10^-31 * 1 * 10^-10

Δv = 577000 ms-1

Ratio of uncertainty of electron to that of proton = 577000 ms-1/315 ms-1= 1832
