Answer:

2.2386 m/s

Explanation:

I think you would use the momentum equation.

m1v1=m2v2

m1= mass of the bag (8.5kg)

v1= speed of bag (6.9 m/s)

m2= mass of bag and cart (26.2 kg)

v2= speed of cart and bag

Plug these numbers all into the equation and you solve for v2 which ends up at 2.2386 m/s

Lorico [155]

Answer:

The correct answer is a

Explanation:

The speed of a sound wave depends on the square root of the modulus of compressibility and the density of the medium.

For the same medium, the speed of sound depends on the temperature of the fora

           v = v_o \ \sqrt{1 + \frac{T}{273} }

Therefore, the different results that are obtained are due to changes in temperature. The correct answer is a

since this way it has the values ​​of the speed of sound for each temperature, for which it can compare with the results obtained from the trip.

What is the gravitational field strength of a 5 kg object that weighs 25 N?
solniwko [45]

Answer:

ExplanaThis is a way of measuring how much gravity there is. The formula is: weight/mass = gravitational field strength.

Gravitational field strength = Weight/mass unit is N/kg

Weight = mass x gravitational field strength unit is N

On Earth the gravitational field strength is 10 N/kg. Other planets have different gravitational field strengths. The Moon has a gravitational field strength of 1.6 N/kg. You might have seen films of astronauts leaping high on the moon.

Here on Earth, if I jump I am pulled back to ground by gravity. What is my weight? My mass is 80kg and if we multiply by gravitational field strength (10N/kg) - my weight is 800N. Now if I go to the moon, my mass will be the same, 80kg. We multiply that by the moon's gravitational field strength, which is 1.6 N/ kg. That means my weight on the moon is 128N. So I have different weights on the Earth and on the Moon. That's why astronauts can jump high into the air on the moon - they're lighter up there.

Jupiter is a very large planet with strong gravitational field strength of 25 N/ kg. My body is 80kg. If I go to Jupiter my weight is going to be 25 x 80 = 2,000 N. That means I wouldn't be able to get off the ground or stand up straight! I would probably be lying down all the time there. So weight varies depending on which planet you are on. You can find out more yourself by looking up tables of weight on different planets.tion:
