F=ma which is newtons second law. so we have here a=g in this situation and g=gravity and that equals 9.80m/s^2 on earth surface. So we have F=5.7kg*9.80m/s^2=55.9N or Newtons. Thank You! Please rate!

Answer:

Force of gravity, F = 55.86 N

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the package, m = 5.7 kg

We know that acceleration due to gravity on the earth is, $a=g=9.8\ m/s^2$

Force of gravity acting on the package on the earth is given by :

$F=m\times g$

$F=5.7\ kg\times 9.8\ m/s^2$

$F=55.86\ N$

So, the force of gravity on the earth is 55.86 N. Hence, this is the required solution.

2.57162 W

14.28 W

53.55 W

6.07142 W

Explanation:

R = 280Ω

L = 100 mH

C = 0.800 μF

V = 50 V

ω = 10500rad/s

For RLC circuit impedance is given by

$Z=\sqrt{R^2+(X_L-X_C)^2}\\\Rightarrow Z=\sqrt{R^2+(\omega L-\dfrac{1}{\omega C})^2}\\\Rightarrow Z=\sqrt{280^2+(10500\times 100\times 10^{-3}-\dfrac{1}{10500\times 0.8\times 10^{-6}})^2}\\\Rightarrow Z=972.1483\ \Omega$

Power factor is given by

$F=\dfrac{R}{Z}\\\Rightarrow F=\dfrac{280}{972.1483}\\\Rightarrow F=0.28802$

The power factor is 0.28802

The average power to the circuit is given by

$P=\dfrac{V^2}{Z}\\\Rightarrow P=\dfrac{50^2}{972.1483}\\\Rightarrow P=2.57162\ W$

The average power to the circuit is 2.57162 W

Power to resistor

$P_R=IR\\\Rightarrow P_R=5.1\times 10^{-2}\times 280\\\Rightarrow P_R=14.28\ W$

Power to resistor is 14.28 W

Power to inductor

$P_L=IX_L\\\Rightarrow P_L=5.1\times 10^{-2}\times 10500\times 100\times 10^{-3}\\\Rightarrow P_L=53.55\ W$

Power to the inductor is 53.55 W

Power to the capacitor

$P_C=IX_C\\\Rightarrow P_C=5.1\times 10^{-2}\times \dfrac{1}{10500\times 0.8\times 10^{-6}}\\\Rightarrow P_C=6.07142\ W$

The power to the capacitor is 6.07142 W

Which of the following processes DOES NOT occur during the convective transfer of heat within a container of air? Group of answe

vovangra [49]

The volume of a warmed part of the air is reduced and its density increases.

Explanation:

In a convective form of heat transfer, the volume of a warmed part of air is not reduced and its density does not increase.

During convection, heat causes the warm part of the air to expand and its volume increases. When volume increases, density is reduced.

Convection is a form of heat transfer that involves the actual movement of particles of the medium.
It usually occurs in fluids i.e gases and liquids.
In convection, the cold part exerts a buoyant force on the warmer air below and causes it to rise.
As the warmer part is rising the cooler part replaces it and a convective cell is formed in the process.

Why is it important to understand the concept of density ?

N76 [4]

Density applies to many if not all aspects of life. With density you can explain why ice floats. You can explain why oxygen is on the earth, and not floating around in space( or being replaced by another gas). You can also explain why heat rises while cold air sinks.
