Why is the weight of an object more on Earth than the Moon

1 answer:

Ann [662]3 years ago

Answer:

Due to gravity on the earth but on moon there is 1/6th of the gravity than on earth. Since the acceleration of gravity Is lesser in moon and weight is constant, the weight of an object is lesser on the surface of the moon.

The weight of the plane is (mass) x (acceleration of gravity).
Neither of these changes when the plane rises from the ground.
Its weight on the ground is equal to (the same as) its weight in the air.

Water is flowing in a fire hose with a velocity of 1.0 m/s and a pressure of 200000 Pa. At the nozzle the pressure decreases to

jeka57 [31]

Answer:

The velocity is $v_n =14.09 \ m/s$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The velocity of the water in the pipe is $v_i = 1.0 \ m/s$

The pressure inside the pipe is $P_i = 200000 \ Pa$

The pressure at the nozzle is $P_n = 101300 \ Pa$

The density of water is $\rho = 1000 \ kg / m^3$

For the height $h_1 = h_2 = h$

where $h_1$ is height of water in the pipe

and $h_2$ is height of water at the nozzle

Generally Bernoulli equation is represented as

$\frac{1}{2} \rho * v_i ^2 + \rho * g * h_1 + P_i = \frac{1}{2} \rho v_n ^2 + \rho * g* h_2 + P_n$

=> $\frac{1}{2} \rho * v_i ^2 + \rho * g * h + P_1 = \frac{1}{2} \rho v_n ^2 + \rho * g* h + P_2$

Where $v_n$ is the velocity of the water at the nozzle

Now making $v_n$ the subject

$v_n = \sqrt{\frac{2}{\rho} [ P_i - Pn + \frac{1}{2} \rho v_i^2}$

substituting values

$v_n = \sqrt{\frac{2}{1000} [ 200000 - 101300 + \frac{1}{2} (1000 * (1.0)^2)}$

$v_n =14.09 \ m/s$

antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

$r=5.278\times 10^{-4}\ m$

Explanation:

Given that:

magnetic field intensity, $B=0.07\ T$

kinetic energy of electron, $KE=1.2\ eV= 1.2\times 1.6\times 10^{-19}\ J= 1.92\times 10^{-19}\ J$

we have mass of electron, $m=9.1\times 10^{-31}\ kg$

<em>Now, form the mathematical expression of Kinetic Energy:</em>

$KE= \frac{1}{2} m.v^2$

$1.92\times 10^{-19}=0.5\times 9.1\times 10^{-31}\times v^2$

$v^2=4.2198\times 10^{11}$

$v=6.496\times 10^6\ m.s^{-1}$

<u>from the relation of magnetic and centripetal forces we have the radius as:</u>

$r=\frac{m.v}{q.B}$

$r=\frac{9.1\times 10^{-31}\times 6.496\times 10^6 }{1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 0.07}$

$r=5.278\times 10^{-4}\ m$
