Answer:

Moons’ gravitational strength = weight of astronaut on the moon / mass of astronaut.

= 150 / 90 = 1.67 Nkg-1

Which expression of distance uses SI units? A. 30 miles B. 16 kilograms C. 24 feet D. 500 meters

Stella [2.4K]

Hi!

SI units are physical measurements which will be in the form of kilograms, second, kelvin, metres, etc.

Since kilograms measure the weight of an object, it is out. Miles and feet are not SI units, so they are also out. This only leaves one answer left!

Hopefully, this helps! =)

A(n) 10.1 g bullet is fired into a(n) 2.41 kg ballistic pendulum and becomes embedded in it. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8

fomenos

Answer:

$v = 186.90\,\frac{m}{s}$

Explanation:

The motion of ballistic pendulum is modelled by the appropriate use of the Principle of Energy Conservation:

$\frac{1}{2}\cdot (m_{p}+m_{b})\cdot v^{2} = (m_{p}+m_{b})\cdot g \cdot h$

The final velocity of the system formed by the ballistic pendulum and the bullet is:

$v = \sqrt{2\cdot g\cdot h}$

$v = \sqrt{2\cdot (9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} )\cdot (0.031\,m)}$

$v\approx 0.78\,\frac{m}{s}$

Initial velocity of the bullet can be calculated from the expression derived of the Principle of Momentum:

$(0.0101\,kg)\cdot v = (2.41\,kg + 0.0101\,kg)\cdot (0.78\,\frac{m}{s} )$

$v = 186.90\,\frac{m}{s}$

A skier leaves the horizontal end of a ramp with a velocity of 31.0 m/s and lands 156.3 m from the base of a ramp how high is th

BartSMP [9]

<u>Answer:</u>

The height of ramp = 124.694 m

<u>Explanation:</u>

Using second equation of motion,

$s = ut + \frac{1}{2}at^2$

From the question,

u = 31 m/s; s = 156.3 m, a=0

substituting values

$156.3 = 31\times t + 0$

t = $\frac{156.3}{31 }$

= 5.042 s

Similary, for the case of landing

t = 5.042 s; initial velocity, u =0

acceleration = acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.81 $m/s^2$

Substituting in $h = ut + \frac{1}{2}gt^2$

$h = 0 + \frac{1}{2} \times 9.81 \times (5.042)^2$

h = 124.694 m

So height of ramp = 124.694 m

6. A wave has a frequency of 600 Hz and is traveling at 300 m/s. What is its<br> wavelength?

Luda [366]

Answer:

0.5m

Explanation:

v=f×lamda

v is 300m/s, f is 600Hz, lamda is ?

lamda=v/f

lamda=300/600

lamda =3/6=1/2m
