The answer to this question would be: a spring scale.

The spring scale that you use to determine your body weight is actually a device that measures your body gravitational force. The force itself influenced by your body weight, that is why it can determine your body weight.
More weight means more force, more force will shrink the spring more.

olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

1.73 m/s²

3.0 cm

Explanation:

Draw a free body diagram of the yo-yo.  There are two forces: weight force mg pulling down, and tension force T pulling up 10° from the vertical.

Sum of forces in the y direction:

∑F = ma

T cos 10° − mg = 0

T cos 10° = mg

T = mg / cos 10°

Sum of forces in the x direction:

∑F = ma

T sin 10° = ma

mg tan 10° = ma

g tan 10° = a

a = 1.73 m/s²

Draw a free body diagram of the sphere.  There are two forces: weight force mg pulling down, and air resistance D pushing up.  At terminal velocity, the acceleration is 0.

Sum of forces in the y direction:

∑F = ma

D − mg = 0

D = mg

½ ρₐ v² C A = ρᵢ V g

½ ρₐ v² C (πr²) = ρᵢ (4/3 πr³) g

3 ρₐ v² C = 8 ρᵢ r g

r = 3 ρₐ v² C / (8 ρᵢ g)

r = 3 (1.3 kg/m³) (100 m/s)² (0.47) / (8 (7874 kg/m³) (9.8 m/s²))

r = 0.030 m

r = 3.0 cm

A plastic rod that has been charged to − 15 nC touches a metal sphere. Afterward, the rod's charge is − 5.0 nC.
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

B) electrons transferred from sphere to rod.

(2) 1.248 x 10¹¹ electrons were transferred

Explanation:

Given;

initial charge on the plastic rod, q₁ = 15nC

final charge on the plastic rod, q₂ = - 5nC

let the charge acquired by the plastic rod = q

q + 15nC = -5nC

q = -5nC - 15nC

q = -20 nC

Thus, the plastic rod acquired excess negative charge from the metal sphere.

Hence, electrons transferred from sphere to rod

B) electrons transferred from sphere to rod.

2) How many charged particles were transferred?

1.602 x 10⁻¹⁹ C = 1 electron

20 x 10⁻⁹ C = ?

= 1.248 x 10¹¹ electrons

Thus,1.248 x 10¹¹ electrons were transferred

In space (no gravity or friction), you throw a ball with mass 0.1 kg at a target with mass 1 kg. You throw the ball at a speed o
ioda

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall apply law of conservation of  momentum in space to know the velocity of combination after the impact

m₁v₁ = m₂v₂

.1 x 4 = ( 1 + .1 ) v₂

v₂ = .3636 m /s

1  )  

Kinetic energy of the combination

= 1/2 x 1.1 x ( .3636)²

= 7.3 x 10⁻² J

2 )

Initial kinetic energy of the system

= 1/2 x 0.1 x 4²

= 0.8 J

Final  kinetic energy of the system = 7.3 x 10⁻²

Loss of energy = .8 - .073

= .727 J

This energy was converted into internal energy of the system .

3 )

increase in entropy = dQ / T

Here dQ = .727 J

T  = 300 ( Constant )

dQ / T = 2.42 X 10⁻³ J/K
