Answer: 79.0 x 10²³ kg

Explanation:

The weight of any mass, is given by the value of the attractive force that the mass of the planet exerts on it, and is given by the Newton's Universal Law of Gravitation:

Fg = G m Mp / rp²

If Fg = 25.74 N, we can solve for Mp, as follows:

Mp = Fg . rp² / G m = 25.74 N. (7.3 10⁶)² m² / 6.67259. 10⁻¹¹ N.m²/ kg². 2.6 kg

Mp= 79.0 x 10²³ kg.

a cement block accidentally falls from rest from the ledge of a 80.6-m-high building. When the block is 10.8 m above the ground,
fomenos

Answer:

0.229 seconds

Explanation:

Given:

y₀ = 80.6 m

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = -9.8 m/s²

We need to find the difference in times when y = 10.8 m and y = 2.10 m.

When y = 10.8 m:

y = y₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²

10.8 = 80.6 + (0) t + ½ (-9.8) t²

10.8 = 80.6 − 4.9 t²

4.9 t² = 69.8

t = 3.774

When y = 2.10 m:

y = y₀ + v₀ t + ½ at²

2.10 = 80.6 + (0) t + ½ (-9.8) t²

2.10 = 80.6 − 4.9 t²

4.9 t² = 78.5

t = 4.003

The difference is:

4.003 − 3.774 = 0.229

The man has 0.229 seconds to get out of the way.

A light bulb in a camper’s flashlight is labeled 4.1 V, 0.40 A. Find the equivalent current if three of these light bulbs are co
Gnesinka [82]

Explanation:

first rule of parallel circuits : the voltage is the same in the whole circuit, no matter where we measure.

so, we have 1.5V at every bulb.

second rule of parallel circuits : the total current is the sum of the individual branch currents.

so, if the battery really allows it, then we have 3 times 0.4 A = 3×0.4 = 1.2 A as current in the circuit.

I would say that this passage is an example of the heliocentric correct view of the world with the sun and not the earth the center of our universe and this formed a very important part of the Renaissance wherein nature was examined first hand wherever possible to arrive at a much closer approximation of the truth than in Medieval or Classical times of Aristotle when idle speculation about nature was the order of the day.

Consider a step-down transformer with 15 turns in the primary and 6 turns in the secondary windings. Calculate the input impedan
AURORKA [14]

Answer:

Input impedance of this transformer is 50 ohms.  

Explanation:

Given that,

Number of turns in the primary coil, N_p=15

Number of turns in the secondary coil, N_s=6

Output impedance of the transformer, V_o=8\ \Omega

The number of turns and the impedance ratio in the step down transformer is given by :

\dfrac{15}{6}=\sqrt{\dfrac{Z_p}{Z_s}}\\\\\dfrac{15}{6}=\sqrt{\dfrac{Z_p}{8}}\\\\Z_p=50\ \Omega

So, the input impedance of this transformer is 50 ohms. Hence, this is the required solution.

The 200-mm test tube also contained some water (besides the metal) that was subsequently added to the calorimeter (in Part A.4.)
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

The temperature  change in the calorimeter will be lower

Explanation:

Water is an example of a molecular substance. They have relatively low melting points and boiling points usually below 300° C . Water reacts with metals to a degree varying with their position in the electrochemical series.

The specific heat of water is 4179.6 Joules which is relatively high . This typically implies that water absorbs a larger amount of heat but the increase in temperature of its boiling points is relatively low. Thus; in the 200-mm test tube that contains water and was subsequently added to the calorimeter , the heat present was initially absorbed by the water and that does not result to an increase in the temperature change in the calorimeter. Thus the temperature change in the calorimeter will be lower.
