A wrestler weighs in for the first match on the moon. will the athlete weigh more or less on the moon than he does on Earth?

1 answer:

4 0

The moon is 1/4 the size of Earth, so the moon's gravity is much less than the earth's gravity, 83.3% (or 5/6) less to be exact. Finally, "weight" is a measure of the gravitational pull between two objects. So of course you would weigh much less on the moon.

At the nose of a missile in flight, the pressure and temperature are 5.6 atm and 850°R, respectively. Calculate the density and

Contact [7]

To solve this problem we will apply the definition of the ideal gas equation, where we will clear the density variable. In turn, the specific volume is the inverse of the density, so once the first term has been completed, we will simply proceed to divide it by 1. According to the definition of 1 atmosphere, this is equivalent in the English system to

$1atm = 2116lb/ft^2$

The ideal gas equation said us that,

PV = nRT

Here,

P = pressure

V = Volume

R = Gas ideal constant

T = Temperature

n = Amount of substance (at this case the mass)

Then

$\frac{n}{V} = \frac{P}{RT}$

The amount of substance per volume is the density, then

$\rho = \frac{P}{RT}$

Replacing with our values,

$\rho = \frac{5.6*2116}{1716*850}$

$\rho = 0.00812slug/ft^3$

Finally the specific volume would be

$v = \frac{1}{\rho}$

$v = 123ft^3/slug$

Can an object be accelerated while traveling at constant velocity? Why or why not?

AysviL [449]

Answer:

An object's acceleration is the rate its velocity (speed and direction) changes. Therefore, an object can accelerate even if its speed is constant - if its direction changes. If an object's velocity is constant, however, its acceleration will be zero.
