W=mg

Explanation:

the weight of an object on a planet is given by the law:

W=mg

where

m is the mass of the object

g is the value of the gravitational acceleration on the planet

While the mass of the object, m, depends only on the properties of the object (so, it is the same on every planet), the weight W, depends on the value of g, which is different from planet to planet, therefore the weight of an object changes if we move it to another planet.

In this case to find the weight of an object you must use the formula.

W = mg

lord [1]
The answer is 2.63m/s^2! You use the formula F=ma, 112 = 42.6(a), a= 2.63m/s^2.

A vector has a component of 10 m in the x-direction, a component of 10 m in the y-direction, and a component of 5 m in the z dir
Kobotan [32]

The magnitude of this vector is 15

A vector is a quantity or phenomenon that has two independent properties: magnitude and direction. The term also denotes the mathematical or geometrical representation of such a quantity. Examples of vectors in nature are velocity, momentum, force, electromagnetic fields, and weight.

The magnitude of a vector formula is used to calculate the length for a given vector (say v) and is denoted as |v|. So basically, this quantity is the length between the initial point and endpoint of the vector.

Let vector be = a

component of vector in x direction = 10 i

component of vector in y direction = 10 j

component of vector in z direction = 5 z

vector a = 10 i + 10 j + 5 z

magnitude of vector a = |a| = \sqrt{10^{2} +10^{2} + 5^{2}    }

                                             = 15
