It depends on two factors:

1) MASS OF THE OBJECT

2) GRAVITY

Answer: Mass and acceleration due to gravity

Explanation:

Weight of the body is defined as the product of the mass of the  and the acceleration due to gravity

Mathematically,

W=mg

Where,

W = weight of the body

m = mass of the body

g = acceleration due to gravity

Hence, mass and acceleration due to gravity are the two factors on which weight of the body depends.

Weight of the body does not remain constant because the value of 'g' is not constant all over the space.

Two train whistles have identical frequencies of 1.85 102 Hz. When one train is at rest in the station and the other is moving n
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

frequency of whistle = 1.85 x 10² = 185 Hz

frequency of beat heard = 8 beat /s . No of beat produced is equal to difference of frequencies of two sound source . Here difference is created due to Doppler effect . One of the train is moving so it will have apparent frequency which is different one from its original frequency .

When the moving train is approaching the observer , its frequency will be higher . As beat is heard at the rate of 8 beats / s , apparent frequency of approaching train will be 185 + 8 = 193 Hz .

Applying Doppler's formula of apparent frequency ,

193 = 185 x V / ( V - v ) , where V is velocity of sound and v is velocity of train .

193 V - 193 v = 185 V

193 v = 8 V

v = 8 x V / 193

= 8 x 343 / 193

= 14.21 m /s

Second possibility is that apparent velocity is less ie 185 - 8 = 177 Hz

In that case moving train will be moving away from observer . If its velocity be v

177 = 185 x V / ( V + v )

177 V + 177 v = 185 V

v = 8 x 343 / 177

= 15.50 m /s .

A geologist finds that a Moon rock whose mass is 8.94 kg has an apparent mass of 6.18 kg when submerged in water. What is the de
Grace [21]

Density of rock = 3.23 Kg/m^3

Given:

mass of Moon rock = 8.94 kg

apparent mass of Moon rock = 6.18 kg

To Find:

density of the rock

Solution: It is a universal fact that mass of an object remains constant whether measured on earth or on moon.

Mass of rock on moon/earth = 8.94 kg

When the block is immersed in water then;

Loss in weight = weight of water displaced

Loss in weight = 8.94 - 6.18 = 2.76 kg

As we know that water has a density of 1g/cm^3 (1000kg/m^3)

Volume of water = volume of the rock = Mass/density = 2.76 kg

density of rock mass/volume = 8.94/2.76 = 3.23 Kg/m^3

Density of rock = 3.23 Kg/m^3

Red light of wavelength 651 nm produces photoelectrons from a certain photoemissive material. Green light of wavelength 521 nm p
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

material work function is 0.956 eV

Explanation:

given data

red wavelength 651 nm

green wavelength 521 nm

photo electrons = 1.50 × maximum kinetic energy

to find out

material work function

solution

we know by Einstein photo electric equation  that is

for red light

h ( c / λr ) = Ф +  kinetic energy

for green light

h ( c / λg ) = Ф +  1.50 × kinetic energy

now from both equation put kinetic energy from red to green

h ( c / λg ) = Ф +  1.50 × (h ( c / λr ) - Ф)

Ф =( hc / 0.50) × ( 1.50/ λr  - 1/ λg)

put all value

Ф =( 6.63 ×10^{-34} (3 ×10^{8} )  / 0.50) × ( 1.50/ λr  - 1/ λg)

Ф =( 6.63 ×10^{-34} (3 ×10^{8} ) / 0.50 ) × ( 1.50/ 651×10^{-9}   - 1/ 521 ×10^{-9})

Ф = 1.5305  ×10^{-19} J  × ( 1ev / 1.6 ×10^{-19} J )

Ф = 0.956 eV

material work function is 0.956 eV
