Answer:

An object on the moon would weigh the LEAST among these. So correct answer is B.

Explanation:

  • Weight of an object on any place is given by:

W = Mass * Acceleration due to gravity(g)

  • It means when masses of different objects those are in different places are same, the weight of  those objects depends upon the 'g' of that particular place.
  • As we know, acceleration due to gravity on surface of moon (g') is 6 times weaker than the acceleration on surface of earth (g), which is due to the large M/R^2 of the earth than the moon.

i.e. g' = g/6 so W' = W/6

  • And in the space between the two, the object is weightless.

A car starts at 12.5 m/s and reaches 25.5 m/s in 5.00 seconds. What is its acceleration? What is the car’s displacement? (Demons
disa [49]

The acceleration of a car that starts at 12.5 m/s and reaches 25.5 m/s in 5.00 seconds is 2.6m/s².

<h3>How to calculate acceleration?</h3>

The acceleration of a moving object can be calculated using the following formula:

a = (v - u)/t

Where;

  • a = acceleration (m/s²)
  • v = final velocity (m/s)
  • u = initial velocity (m/s)
  • t = time (s)

According to this question, a car starts at 12.5 m/s and reaches 25.5 m/s in 5.00 seconds.

a = (25.5 - 12.5)/5

a = 13.0/5

a = 2.6m/s²

Therefore, the acceleration of a car that starts at 12.5 m/s and reaches 25.5 m/s in 5.00 seconds is 2.6m/s².

14. A block rests on a frictionless table on Earth. After a 20-N horizontal force is applied to the block, it accelerates at 3.9
joja [24]
<span>14. Let's find mass. We know that F = m*a, so m = F/a.m = 20/3,9 m/s^2 = 5,12 kg;We already know the mass, so acceleration will be a = F/m;a = 10/5,12 = 2,0 m/s^2 (approximately);Answer: E.
15. According to the picture given above, let's define all components:These are refer to y: 985N sin(31)= 507;788N cos(32)= 668;411N sin(53)=-328;
And these are refer to x: 985N cos(31)= 844 788N sin(32)= -417 411N cos(53)= -247
And finally let's calculate tan:  tan^-1 (507/844)= 30,98; tan^-1 (668/-417)= -58,02; tan^-1 (-328/-247)= 53,01
According to these calculations we've got: Sum Fx = 179,4 and Sum Fy = 847. Then let's count magnitude:Fsum = rad 179^2 + 847^2 = 865
Then we've got [tex]cos^-1 (179/865) = 77.7 (approximately).
So the most approximate answer is C. 866 N at 78.1° counterclockwise to the x-axis.
16. I think that this question is incomplete because there wasn't mentioned in what end of the chain the tension should be calculated. Anyway I'll help you with both bottom and top ends. We will use the basic formula W=m*g; W(bottom) = 175*9.8 = 1715 N; W(top) = (175+12)*9.8 = 1833 N; So you should choose between B. 1830 N or D. 1720 N. But I think the most possible answer is B.
17. I am definitely sure that A diagram generates the most tension in one chain. So the answer is C. The box is held by 1 chain and have all its weight.
18. I think that each planet would move in a straight line at constant speed, because there will be a zero gravity condition and there won't any impact on the planets.
19.  According to the Work-Energy Theorem we have:1/2*1200*2^2 = 2400 (J);Then let's count the average force according to the formula: Work =  F*D where D is displacement.F = 2400/ 0.15 = 16000 (N)
So the answer is B. 1.6 × 10^4 N
20. If my memory serves me well, magnetism is the force that can act through empty space. It's one aspect of the combined electromagnetic force. So the answer is A.
21. According to the illustration given above, I think we should use formula F = m*g; Let's count m. m = 5 kg - 0,6 kg = 4,4 kg; Then we have everything to count force:F = 4,4 * 9,8 = 43,1 N. So the most approximate answer is D. 43 N.
22. I am definitely sure that the answer is C. on Earth at sea level. Because weight has the formula W=mg. And on the earth surface the magnitude of g is higher that everywhere so the greatest weight is on Earth at sea level.
23. We have everything to calculate the acceleration. According to Newton's second law, the formula is a = F/m;a = 20/40 = 0,5 m/s^2; So the answer is A.
24. According to the definition of action reaction forces, the answer should be: A. The forces are opposite in direction, with the force on the ball much stronger in magnitude.
25. I am pretty sure that we should use Newton’s second law of motion F = m*a. First we should find mass, using formula W=m*g => m = W/g => m = 2400/9.8= 245 kg. Then we can find F.F = m*a;F = 245*12 = 2940 N; Answer: B
