How to find weight in science

Physics
1 answer:
Kaylis [27]3 years ago
8 0

There are several different methods, depending on the particular situation.  A few that might occasionally be useful include:

-- Read the label on the package.

-- Measure the mass and multiply by the local acceleration of gravity.

-- Measure the mass AND the local acceleration of gravity, then multiply.

-- Place the object or sample on a bathroom scale.

-- Place the object on one end of a symmetrical see-saw.  Through trial and error, determine the weight required on the other end to balance the system.

Calculate the speed of a proton after it accelerates from rest through a potential difference of 350 V.
AVprozaik [17]

The speed of a proton after it accelerates from rest through a potential difference of 350 V is 25.86 \times 10^4 ~m/s.

Initial velocity of the proton u = 0

Given potential difference \Delta V = 350V

let's assume that the speed of the proton is v,

Since the proton is accelerating through a potential difference, proton's potential energy will change with time. The potential energy of a particle of charge q when accelerated with a potential difference \Delta V is,

    U = q \Delta V

Due to Work-Energy Theorem and Conservation of Energy - <em>If there is no non-conservative force acting on a particle then loss in Potential energy  P.E must be equal to gain in Kinetic Energy K.E</em> i.e

\Delta K = \Delta V

If the initial and final velocity of the proton is u and v respectively then,

change in Kinetic Energy  \implies  \Delta K = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 -\frac{1}{2}mu^2 = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 - 0

change in Potential Energy \implies \Delta U = q\Delta V

from conservation of energy,

             v= \sqrt{\frac{2q\Delta V}{m}}

so,         v = \sqrt{\frac{2\times 350 \times 1.6\times 10^{-19}}{1.67 \times 10^{-27}}

                = 25.86 \times 10^4 ~m/s

Find the moments of inertia Ix, Iy, I0 for a lamina that occupies the part of the disk x2 y2 ≤ 36 in the first quadrant if the d
Tasya [4]

Answer:

I(x)  = 1444×k ×{\pi}

I(y)  = 1444×k ×{\pi}

I(o) = 3888×k ×{\pi}  

Explanation:

Given data

function =  x^2 + y^2 ≤ 36

function =  x^2 + y^2 ≤ 6^2

to find out

the moments of inertia Ix, Iy, Io

solution

first we consider the polar coordinate (a,θ)

and polar is directly proportional to a²

so p = k × a²

so that

x = a cosθ

y = a sinθ

dA = adθda

so

I(x) = ∫y²pdA

take limit 0 to 6 for a and o to \pi /2 for θ

I(x) = \int_{0}^{6}\int_{0}^{\pi/2} y²p dA

I(x) = \int_{0}^{6}\int_{0}^{\pi/2} (a sinθ)²(k × a²) adθda

I(x) = k  \int_{0}^{6}a^(5)  da ×  \int_{0}^{\pi/2}  (sin²θ)dθ

I(x) = k  \int_{0}^{6}a^(5)  da ×  \int_{0}^{\pi/2}  (1-cos2θ)/2 dθ

I(x)  = k ({r}^{6}/6)^(5)_0 ×  {θ/2 - sin2θ/4}^{\pi /2}_0

I(x)  = k × ({6}^{6}/6) × (  {\pi /4} - sin\pi /4)

I(x)  = k ×  ({6}^{5}) ×   {\pi /4}

I(x)  = 1444×k ×{\pi}    .....................1

and we can say I(x) = I(y)   by the symmetry rule

and here I(o) will be  I(x) + I(y) i.e

I(o) = 2 × 1444×k ×{\pi}

I(o) = 3888×k ×{\pi}   ......................2

A light wave moves from diamond (n= 2.4) into water (n= 1.33) at an angleof 24°. what angle does it have in water?
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

n1 sin θ1 = n2 sin θ2      Snell's Law       (θ1 is the angle of incidence)

sin θ2 = n1 / n2 * sin θ1

sin θ2 = 2.4 / 1.33 * sin θ1

sin θ2 = 1.80 * .407 = .734

θ2 = 47.2 deg

why does diving 30m below sea level affect our bodies more than being in a building 30m above sea level
Genrish500 [490]
Imagine you are in a swimming pool 30m deep. Assuming you know that water is denser than air, you would know that the 30m of water above you will carry more weight, and press down on your body. Say you were in a swimming pool 60m deep, you would be sandwiched between 30m of water pressing down on you, and the upthrust created by the 30m of water below you.

In a building 30m up, the pressure will be regulated, as you are in a building. The floor will be strong enough to support the weight of the body, and the body will not recoil into itself.

A student investigated how the mass of water in an electric kettle affected the time taken for the water to reach boiling point.
Sedbober [7]

Answer:

1.because of the heat produced by the socat

2. they should have control how they placed the heater

3. because the water is to much

4.because is different from the question

5. because that is how the question is
