His mass is 50 kg . . . on the Moon, on the Earth, in the capsule rocketing between them, and on Halley's comet if he ever goes there.

Answer:

50kg

Explanation:

The mass of a man on the Earth and the moon is the same, so we only need to use the 490N weight on Earth.

The formula for mass is m=w/g. Plugging in the values, we can determine that m=490N/9.8m/s^2. (g is gravitational constant, which is approximately 9.8m/s^2 on Earth)

The reason that the unit in the answer is in kg is because one newton (N) is 1kg*m/s^2. The m/s^2 is cancelled out by the m/s^2 in the gravity constant, so it leaves kg.

m=50kg

True or false?
Ksju [112]

1. False

Explanation: it's exactly the opposite. In fact, Lenz's law states that the induced current and the induced emf in a conductor are generated in such a direction that opposes to the change in magnetic flux through the coil. This is summarized by the negative sign in the Faraday's Newmann Lenz law:

\epsilon= -\frac{d\Phi }{dt}

where \epsilon is the emf induced and \frac{d\Phi}{dt} is the rate of change of magnetic flux through the coil.

Lenz's law is a consequence of the law of conservation of energy. In fact, we have:

- If the magnetic flux through a coil is increasing, then the induced current has a direction such that the magnetic field generated by the coil is opposite to the direction of the external magnetic field, in order to decrease the total flux

- If the magnetic flux through a coil is decreasing, then the induced current has a direction such that the magnetic field generated by the coil is in the same direction as the external field, in order to increase the total flux

2. False

Explanation: the magnetic flux through a surface is given by

\Phi = BA cos \theta

where

B is the magnitude of the magnetic field

A is the surface area

\theta is the angle between the direction of B and the normal vector to the surface

As we see, the magnetic flux depends not only on B and A, but also on the orientation of the coil with respect to the magnetic field.

3. False

Explanation:

- Sound waves are mechanical waves: mechanical waves are waves consisting of oscillations of the particles in a medium. Due to their nature, therefore, mechanical waves can propagate only in the presence of a medium

- Electromagnetic waves are NOT mechanical waves: they consist of oscillations of electric and magnetic fields, in a direction perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave. Since em waves are not mechanical waves, they do NOT need a medium to propagate, since they can also travel through a vacuum; therefore the original statement is false.

A person throws a ball straight up into the air with a speed of 7.3m/s. How high does the ball go?
Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

2.6645m

Explanation:

applying motion equations we can find the answer,

v^{2}=u^{2}  +2as

Let assume ,

u = starting speed(velocity)

v = Final speed (velocity)

s =  distance traveled

a = acceleration

by the time of reaching the highest point subjected to the gravity , the speed should be equal to zero

we consider the motion upwards , in this case the gravitational acceleration should be negative in upwards (assume g =10 m/s2 downwards)

that is,

v^{2}=u^{2}  +2as\\0=7.3^{2} -2*10*s\\s=2.6645m

Which one of the following phrases best describes the electric potential of a charged particle?
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

D.The potential energy per unit charge

Explanation:

Electric potential of a charged particle:

It is scalar quantity because it has magnitude but it does not have direction.

It is the amount of work done required to move a unit positive charge from reference point to specific point in the electric field without producing any acceleration.

Mathematical representation:

V=\frac{W}{Q_0}

Where W= Work done

Q_0= Unit positive charge

Other formula to calculate electric field:

V=\frac{KQ}{r}

Where K=\frac{1}{4\pi \epsilon_0}

It can be defined as potential energy per unit charge.

Hence, option D is true.
