How to find weight in science

1 answer:

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.

After an incandescent lamp is turned on, the temperature of its filament rapidly increases from room temperature to its operatin

IrinaVladis [17]

Answer: (1) The resistance increases and the current decreases.

Explanation:

When the temperature of the filament increases, the vibrational energy of the constituent atoms increases which leads to increase in inter-atomic collision. Thus, the resistance would increase. The increases in resistance would obstruct the flow of charges more leading to decrease in the value of the current.

Hence, when the temperature of the filament increase, the resistance increases and current decreases.

Suppose a straight 1.00-mm-diameter copper wire could just "float" horizontally in air because of the force due to the Earth’s m

insens350 [35]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the Force since Newton's second law, as well as the concept of Electromagnetic Force. The relationship of the two equations will allow us to find the magnetic field through the geometric relations of density and volume.

$F_{mag}= BIL$

Where,

B = Magnetic Field

I = Current

L = Length

<em>Note: $F_{mag}$ is a direct adaptation of the vector relation $F=q \times V \times B$ </em>

From Newton's second law we know that the relation of Strength and weight is determined as

$F_g = mg$

Where,

m = Mass

g = Gravitational Acceleration

For there to be balance the two forces must be equal therefore

$F_{mag} = F_g$

$BIL = mg$

Our values are given as,

Diameter $(d) = 1.0mm = 1*10^{-3}m$

Radius $(r) = \frac{d}{2} = \frac{1*10^{-3}}{2} = 0.5*10^{-3}m$

Magnetic Field $(B) = 5.0*10^{-5} T$

From the relationship of density another way of expressing mass would be

$\rho = \frac{m}{V} \rightarrow m = \rho V$

At the same time the volume ratio for a cylinder (the shape of the wire) would be

$V = \pi r^2 L \rightarrow L =Length, r= Radius$

Replacing this two expression at our first equation we have that:

$BIL = mg$

$BIL = ( \rho V)g$

$BIL = ( \rho \pi r^2 L)g$

Re-arrange to find I

$I = \frac{( \rho \pi r^2 L)g}{BL}$

$I = \frac{( \rho \pi r^2 )g}{B}$

We have for definition that the Density of copper is $8.9*10^3 Kg/m^3$ , gravity acceleration is $9.8m/s^2$ and the values of magnetic field (B) and the radius were previously given, then:

$I = \frac{( (8.9*10^3 ) \pi (0.5*10^{-3})^2 )(9.8)}{5.0*10^{-5}}$

$I = 1370.05A$

The current is too high to be transported which would make the case not feasible.

Car a with mass 1,783 kg collides with stationary 1600 kg car b. they become locked together after the collision and move with s

ValentinkaMS [17]

The initial speed of car A is 15.18 m/s.

Momentum is defined as mass in motion. If there are two objects (the two objects in motion or only one object in motion and the other in stationary) that collide and no other forces work in the system, the law of momentum conservation applies in the system.

p=p'

pa+pb = pa'+pb'

(ma×va) + (mb×vb) = (ma×va') + (mb×vb')

ma = mass of object A (kg) = 1,783 kg
mb = mass of object B (kg) = 1,600 kg
va = speed of object A before collides (m/s)
va' = speed of object A after collides (m/s) = 8 m/s
vb = speed of object B before collides (m/s) = 0 m/s
vb' = speed of object B after collides (m/s) = 8 m/s
p = momentum before collision (Ns)
p' = momentum after collision (Ns)

(ma×va) + (mb×vb) = (ma×va') + (mb×vb')

(1,783×va) + (1,600×0) = (1,783×8) + (1,600×8)

(1,783×va) + 0 = 14,264+12,800

(1,783×va) = 27,064

$va \:=\: \frac{27,064}{1.783}$

va = 15.18 m/s
