A mechanical wave<span> requires an initial </span>energy<span> input. Once this initial </span>energy<span> is added, the </span>wave<span> travels through the medium until all its </span>energy is transferred<span>. In contrast, electromagnetic </span>waves<span> require no medium, but can still travel through one</span>

The mass of an object is 60kg on the surface of the earth what will be its weight on the surface of the moon

iris [78.8K]

Answer:

Wm = 97.2 [N]

Explanation:

We must make it clear that mass and weight are two different terms, the mass is always preserved that is to say this will never vary regardless of the location of the object. While weight is defined as the product of mass by gravitational acceleration.

W = m*g

where:

m = mass = 60 [kg]

g = gravity acceleration = 10 [m/s²]

But in order to calculate the weight of the body on the moon, we must know the gravitational acceleration of the moon. Performing a search of this value on the internet, we find that the moon's gravity is.

gm = 1.62 [m/s²]

Wm = 60*1.62

Wm = 97.2 [N]

A space shuttle sits on the launch pad for 2.0 minutes, and then goes from rest to 4600 m/s in 8.0 minutes. Treat its motion as

SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

a.) a = 0 ms⁻²

b.) a = 9.58 ms⁻²

c.) a = 7.67 ms⁻²

Explanation:

a.)

Acceleration (a) is defined as the time rate of change of velocity

$a = \frac{v_{2} - v_{1} } {t}$

Given data

Final velocity = v₂ = 0 m/s

Initial velocity = v ₁ = 0 m/s

As the space shuttle remain at rest for the first 2 minutes i.e there is no change in velocity so,

a = 0 ms⁻²

b.)

Given data

As the space shuttle start from rest, So initial velocity is zero

Initial velocity = v₁ = 0 ms⁻¹

Final velocity = v₂ = 4600 ms⁻¹

Time = t = 8 min = 480 s

By the definition of Acceleration (a)

$a = \frac{v_{2} - v_{1} } {t}$

$a = \frac{4600 - 0 } {480}$

a = 9.58 ms⁻²

c.)

Given data

As the space shuttle is at rest for first 2 min then start moving, So initial velocity is zero

Initial velocity = v₁ = 0 ms⁻¹

Final velocity = v₂ = 4600 ms⁻¹

Time = t = 10 min = 600 s

By the definition of Acceleration (a)

$a = \frac{v_{2} - v_{1} } {t}$

$a = \frac{4600 - 0 } {600}$

a = 7.67 ms⁻²

A sock stuck to the inside of the clothes dryer spins around the drum once every 2.0 s at a distance of 0.50 m from the center o

Rashid [163]

a) 1.57 m/s

The sock spins once every 2.0 seconds, so its period is

T = 2.0 s

Therefore, the angular velocity of the sock is

$\omega=\frac{2\pi}{T}=\frac{2\pi}{2.0}=3.14 rad/s$

The linear speed of the sock is given by

$v=\omega r$

where

$\omega$ is the angular velocity

r = 0.50 m is the radius of the circular path of the sock

Substituting, we find:

$v=(3.14)(0.50)=1.57 m/s$

B) Faster

In this case, the drum is twice as wide, so the new radius of the circular path of the sock is twice the previous one:

$r' = 2r = 1.00 m$

At the same time, the drum spins at the same frequency as before, therefore the angular frequency as not changed:

$\omega' = \omega = 3.14 rad/s$

Therefore, the new linear speed would be:

$v'=\omega' r' = \omega (2r)$

And substituting,

$v'=(3.14)(1.00)=3.14 rad/s = 2v$

So, we see that the linear speed has doubled.
