The new weight is 273.8 N

Explanation:

The weight of an object on Earth is given by

W=mg

where

m is the mass of the object

g is the acceleration of gravity

The acceleration of gravity at the Earth's surface can be rewritten as

g=\frac{GM}{R^2}

where

G is the gravitational constant

M is the Earth's mass

R is the Earth's radius

Substituting into the previous equation,

W=\frac{GMm}{R^2}

We said that in normal conditions, the weight of the person is 730 N:

W=\frac{GMm}{R^2}=730 N

Later, we are said that:

  • The mass of the Earth increases by a  factor of 6, M'=6M
  • The radius of the Earth increases by a factor of 4, R'=4R

Substituting into the equation, we find the new weight of the person in these conditions:

W'=\frac{G(6M)m}{(4R)^2}=\frac{6}{16}(\frac{GMm}{R^2})=\frac{3}{8}W

So, the new weight is 3/8 of the original weight, therefore:

W'=\frac{3}{8}(730)=273.8 N

Answer:

0.003333 s to 0.000125s or from 3.33ms to 0.125ms wher m is for milli

1.1m to 0.04125 m

Explanation:

T= 1/f=

if f= 300Hz then T = 1/300 =0.003333 s

if f= 8000 then T= 1/8000 = 0.000125s

now v=f×wave length

or wavelength = speed/ frequency

when f = 300 Hz

wavelength = 330/300=1.1 m

wavelength = 330/8000 = 0.04125m

note : i have taken speed of sound as 330 m/s you can take any value given in between 330m/s to 340m/s

A ball has a mass of 2 kg and is thrown with a force of 8 Newtons for .35 seconds. What is the ball's change in
Anna [14]

Answer:

1.4s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of ball  = 2kg

Force  = 8N

Time  = 0.35s

Unknown:

Change in velocity  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we use the expression obtained from Newton's second law of motion which is shown below:

      Ft  = m(v  - u)

 So;

         Ft  = m Δv

F is the force

t is the time

m is the mass

Δv is the change in velocity

             8 x 0.35  = 2 x Δv

                  Δv  = 1.4s
