His weight depends on where he is, because
Weight = (mass) x (gravity in the place where the mass is) .
For example:
-- If this man is on Mars, his weight is (110 kg) x (3.7 m/s²) = 408 Newtons
-- If he is on the Moon, his weight is (110 kg) x (1.6 m/s²) = 176 Newtons
-- If he is on Earth, his weight is (110 kg) x (9.8 m/s²) = 1,078 Newtons
-- If he is in a spacecraft coasting from one to another, his weight is zero.

Answer:
P = 450 J
Explanation:
Given that,
Mass of a child, m = 18 kg
The vertical distance from the top to the bottom of the slide is 2.5 metres.
The Gravitational field strength = 10 N/kg
We need to find the decrease in gravitational potential energy of the child sliding from the top to the bottom of the slide.
The formula for the gravitational potential energy is given by :
P = mgh
Substituting all the values,
P = 18 kg × 10 m/s² × 2.5 m
P = 450 J
Hence, the decrease in gravitational potential energy is 450 J.
Hello there!
For this:
1). Convert 10km to meters!
2). Convert the 30 minutes into seconds!
3). Use the following formula to solve for speed!
speed= distance/time
Note: The units should automatically work out to m/s. :)
My goal is to make sure you understand the problem, which is why I won't be giving you the answer. It'll be more work now, but less work in the future! :)
Hope this helped!
