Given that,

mass m = 110 lbs

Force of gravity in Newton, F =?

Since,

1 lbs = 0.45 kg

110 lbs = 110* 0.45 = 49.5 kg

Since, force of gravity equals the weight of the body.

F = W = mg = 49.5 * 9.81

F = 485.595 N

Force of gravity will be 485.595 N.

In order for motion to occur net force is greater than 485.595 N.

First of all you need to know that the force of gravity =m×g. In which, m is the mass and g is the gravitational constant, which is 9.81N/Kg. Since the constant is in Newtons per Kilograms, you need to have the mass in Kg. So your 110 lbs is approximately 49.89 Kg.

Now, just plug in everything in the equation.

F= m×g

F= 49.89kg×9.81N/kg

F= 489.4N

Hope this helps!

A 0.03 kg golf ball is hit off the tee at a speed of 34 m/s. The golf club was in contact with the ball for 0.003 s. What is the

Liula [17]

Answer:

The average force on ball by the golf club is 340 N.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the golf ball, m = 0.03 kg

Initial speed of the ball, u = 0

Final speed of the ball, v = 34 m/s

Time of contact, $\Delta t=0.003\ s$

We need to find the average force on ball by the golf club. We know that the rate of change of momentum is equal to the net external force applied such that :

$F=\dfrac{\Delta p}{\Delta t}\\\\F=\dfrac{mv-mu}{\Delta t}\\\\F=\dfrac{mv}{\Delta t}\\\\F=\dfrac{0.03\ kg\times 34\ m/s}{0.003\ s}\\\\F=340\ N$

So, the average force on ball by the golf club is 340 N.

A ball starts from rest. It rolls down a ramp and reaches the ground after 4 seconds. Its final velocity when it reaches the gro

Hunter-Best [27]

If it starts at rest the initial velocity is 0.
For an acceleration, a, and time, t, the velocity is v=at. Since at t=4, v=7, then a=7/4=1.75m/s^2

The weight of the fluid displaced is equal to the buoyant force on a submerged object. The mass divided by the volume thus determined gives a measure of the average density of the object.
