Which equation is used to calculate the weight of an object on a planet?

Physics

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

The magnitude of the electric force between two protons is 2.30 10-26 n. how far apart are they?
SCORPION-xisa [38]
The electric force between two charge objects is calculated through the Coulomb's law.
                               F = kq₁q₂/d²
The value of k is 9.0 x 10^9 Nm²/C² and the charge of proton is 1.602 x10^-19 C. Substituting the known values from the given,
                           2.30x10^-26 = (9.0 x 10^9 Nm²/C²)(1.602 x10^-19C)²/d²
The value of d is equal to 0.10 m.

A jet airliner moving initially at 406 mph (with respect to the ground) to the east moves into a region where the wind is blowin
astraxan [27]

Answer:

966 mph

Explanation:

Using as convention:

- East --> positive x-direction

- North --> Positive y-direction

The x- and y- components of the initial velocity of the jet can be written as

v_{1x} = 406 mph\\v_{1y} = 0

While the components of the velocity of the wind are

v_{2x} = (568)(cos 15^{\circ})=548.6 mph\\v_{2y} = (568)(sin 15^{\circ})=147.0 mph

So the components of the resultant velocity of the jet are

v_x = v_{1x}+v_{2x}=406+548.6=954.6 mph\\v_y = v_{1y}+v_{2y}=0+147.0=147.0 mph

And the new speed is the magnitude of the resultant velocity:

v=\sqrt{v_x^2+v_y^2}=\sqrt{(954.6)^2+(147.0)^2}=965.8 mph \sim 966 mph
