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.

Taylor Swift weighing 794 N gets on an elevator. The elevator uses 313 W of power to lift the person 22.0 m. How much time did t
mezya [45]

Answer:

55.80s

Explanation:

Power is calculated using the expression

Power = Work done/Time

Workdone= Force ×distance

Workdone = 794×22

Work done = 17468Joules

From the power formula

Time = Workdone/Power

Time = 17468/313

Time = 55.80seconds

The elevator takes 55.80seconds to life the Taylor

Two 20.0 g ice cubes at − 20.0 ∘ C are placed into 285 g of water at 25.0 ∘ C. Assuming no energy is transferred to or from the
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

Ft = 17.48°C

Explanation:

Ft is the final temperature. However, ice absorbs heat during two process of melting and cooling and as such, there is no loss of heat to or from the surrounding hence by conservation of energy.

Therefore,

Heat absorbed by water of 20g = heat rejected by water of 265g.

So; M(ice)[C(ice) [(ΔT) + LH(ice) + C(water)(ΔT)] = C(water) M(water) (ΔT)

So, 20[(2.108) [0 - (-20)] + 333.5 + 4.187(Ft - 0)]] = (285)(4.187) (25 - Ft)

To get;

7513 + 83.74 Ft = 29832.4 - 1193.3 Ft

So factorizing, we get;

83.74 Ft + 1193.3 Ft = 29832.4 - 7513

So; 1277.04 Ft = 22319.4

So; Ft = 22319.4/1277.04 = 17.48°C

How much work is done (in Joules) by a weightlifter in raising a 60-kg barbell from the floor to a height of 2m? Work done =
Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

1176 Nm or J

Explanation:

W = F*d

F = 60kg * 9.8 kgm/s^2 = 588 N

W = 588 N * 2m = 1176 N*m

Arunner starts from rest and accelerates uniformly to a speed of 8.0 meters per
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

2.0 m/s/s

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object is the rate of change of velocity of the object.

Mathematically, it is given by:

a=\frac{v-u}{t}

where

u is the initial velocity

v is the final velocity

t is the time taken for the velocity to change from u to v

Acceleration is a vector, so it has both a magnitude and a direction.

For the runner in this problem, we have:

u = 0 is the initial velocity (he starts from rest)

v = 8.0 m/s is the final velocity

t = 4.0 s is the time taken

Substituting, we find

a=\frac{8.0-0}{4.0}=2.0 m/s^2
