Answer:
Wm = 97.2 [N]
Explanation:
We must make it clear that mass and weight are two different terms, the mass is always preserved that is to say this will never vary regardless of the location of the object. While weight is defined as the product of mass by gravitational acceleration.
W = m*g
where:
m = mass = 60 [kg]
g = gravity acceleration = 10 [m/s²]
But in order to calculate the weight of the body on the moon, we must know the gravitational acceleration of the moon. Performing a search of this value on the internet, we find that the moon's gravity is.
gm = 1.62 [m/s²]
Wm = 60*1.62
Wm = 97.2 [N]
Answer:
(35 N - 10 N)/8kg = 3.125 m/s^2
Explanation:
The formula for Force is:
Force = Mass*Acceleration
(Force is equal to Mass times Acceleration)
Since we're told to find the acceleration of the box. We make acceleration the subject of the equation:
Acceleration = Force/Mass
(Acceleration equal to Force divided by Mass)
We know that the force are 35 N forward and 10 N backward, and the weight of the box is 8kg.
= (35 N - 10 N)/8kg
The reason that 35 N minus 10 N is because the 10 N is pushing the box backward.
= 25 N/8kg
= 3.125 m/s^2
Hope it helps :DD
