What is the weight of an astronaut who has a mass of 90 kg on the moon? (Note: acceleration due to gravity of the moon is 1.62 N
motikmotik

Answer:

W = 145.8 [N]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must remember that weight is defined as the product of mass by gravity, in this case lunar gravity.

W = m*g

where:

m = mass = 90 [kg]

g = gravity acceleration = 1.62 [kg/m²]

W = 90*1.62

W = 145.8 [N]

It is claimed that if a lead bullet goes fast enough, it can melt completely when it comes to a halt suddenly, and all its kinet
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

354.72 m/s

Explanation:

m = mass of lead bullet

c = specific heat of lead = 128 J/(kg °C)

L = Latent heat of fusion of lead = 24500 J/kg

T_{i} = initial temperature = 27.4 °C

T_{f} = final temperature = melting point of lead =  327.5 °C

v = Speed of lead bullet

Using conservation of energy

Kinetic energy of bullet = Heat required for change of temperature + Heat of melting

(0.5) m v^{2} = m c (T_{f} - T_{i}) + m L\\(0.5) v^{2} = c (T_{f} - T_{i}) + L\\(0.5) v^{2} = (128) (327.5 - 27.4) + 24500\\(0.5) v^{2} = 62912.8\\v = 354.72 ms^{-1}

Add these measurements, using significant figure rules 1.0090cm + 0.02cm
Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

1.03

Explanation:

0.02 has two significant decimal figures, so start by shortening 1.0090 to 2 decimal places (3 significant figures). Round up the decimal to become 1.1 and add .02 to get 1.3.
