If my weight on Earth is 140lbs, what is my mass?

Physics
1 answer:
SashulF [63]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

63.57 kg

Explanation:

weight = 140 lbs

Let the mass  is m.

1 lbs = 4.45 N

The weight of an object is defined as the force with which our earth attracts the body towards its centre.

Weight is the product of mass of the body and the acceleration due to gravity of that planet.

W = m x g

On earth surface g = 9.8 m/s^2

Now convert lbs in newton

So, 140 lbs = 140 x 4.45 = 623 N

So, m x 9.8 = 623

m = 63.57 kg

Thus, the mass is 63.57 kg.

F an object has a mass of 200 kg and a weight of 1000 N, what is g?
jeka94

Answer:

g = 5 m/s square

Explanation:

Weight(W), Mass(m), Gravity(g)

W = mg

1,000N = 200g

g = 1000/200

g = 5 m/s square

in the diagram the solid eventually becomes a gas what will happen to bring the substance from a solid to a gas
Ratling [72]
Since there is no diagram I can see to prove my answer, I must infer that a heat source should be applied to the solid substance and cause the atoms in the solid to spread further apart and become a different state, in which atoms will be able to freely move, gas.

A 3.5 x 10-6 C charge is located 0.28 m from a 2.8 x 10-6 C charge. What is the magnitude of the force being exerted on the smal
Margarita [4]
The electrostatic force between two charges is given by Coulomb's law:
F=k_e  \frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}
where
ke is the Coulomb's constant
q1 is the first charge
q2 is the second charge
r is the separation between the two charges

By substituting the data of the problem into the equation, we can find the magnitude of the force between the two charges:
F=(8.99 \cdot 10^{9} Nm^2C^{-2} ) \frac{(3.5 \cdot 10^{-6} N/C)(2.8 \cdot 10^{-6}N/C)}{(0.28m)^2}=1.2 N

What is kinematics ?<br>explain ~​
hodyreva [135]

Answer:

the branch of mechanics concerned with the motion of objects without reference to the forces which cause the motion.

and/or

Kinematics is the study of motion of a system of bodies without directly considering the forces or potential fields affecting the motion. In other words, kinematics examines how the momentum and energy are shared among interacting bodies.
