BartSMP [9]

Answer:

hello your question is incomplete  attached below is the missing part  

answer : short period oscillations frequency  = 0.063 rad / sec

              phugoid oscillations natural frequency ( w_{np} ) = 4.27 rad/sec

Explanation:

first we have to state the general form of the equation

= ( S^2 + 2\alpha _{p} w_{np} S + w^{2} _{np} ) (S^{2} + 2\alpha _{s} w_{ns}S + w^{2} _{ns}  ) = 0

where :

w_{np}  = Natural frequency of plugiod oscillation

\alpha _{p} = damping ratio of plugiod  oscilations

comparing the general form with the given equation

w^{2} _{np}  = 18.2329

w^{2} _{ns} = 0.003969

hence the short period oscillation frequency ( w_{ns} ) =  0.063 rad/sec

phugoid oscillations natural frequency ( w_{np} ) = 4.27 rad/sec

A bag of sugar weighs 5.00 lb on Earth. What would it weigh in newtons on the Moon, where the free-fall acceleration is one-sixt
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

Earth: 22.246 N

Moon: 3.71 N

Jupiter: 58.72 N

Explanation:

The mass of an object will remain constant in any location, its weight however, can fluctuate depending on its location. For example, a golf ball will weigh less on the moon, but its mass will not be different if it was on earth.

To calculate anything, we need to convert to standard measurements.

5.00 lbs = 2.27 kg

On earth, gravity is measured to be 9.8 m/s², so the weight in Newtons on Earth would be: (2.27 kg) x (9.8 m/s²) = 22.246 N

Repeated on the moon where gravity is (9.8 m/s²) x (1/6) = 1.633 m/s², so the weight in Newtons on the moon would be: (2.27 kg) x (1.633 m/s²) = 3.71 N

Repeated on Jupiter where gravity is (9.8 m/s²) x (2.64) = 25.87 m/s², so the wight in Newtons on Jupiter would be: (2.27 kg) x (25.87 m/s²) = 58.72 N
