What is the weight of an 1000 gram mass

Physics

Reil [10]4 years ago

That depends on where you weigh it.

-- On Earth, it weighs 9.807 newtons (2.205 pounds).

-- On the moon, it weighs 1.623 newtons (5.84 ounces).

-- On Jupiter, it weighs 24.79 newtons (5.57 pounds).

BTW ... 1,000 grams of mass is called ' one kilogram '.

Well first and foremost, we can see that the problem gives us the mass in grams, which is a metric unit. And as such, we will want to solve for the metric unit of weight, the Newton.

In order to solve for weight, one must first realize what weight is. Weight is simply the force that the earth (or any given celestial being the object resides on) is applying to the object, to keep it pulled down. So weight is force.

Newton's second law of motion states that Force is equal to mass times acceleration. Mass is 1,000 grams, but one must keep in mind that a Newton is a kilogram times meter per second^2, so we want to convert our mass to kilograms. 1,000 grams is equal to 1 kilogram. Now we have our mass.

Next is acceleration. As stated earlier, weight is the force that gravity applies on an object, so acceleration must then be the acceleration due to gravity, which we know is 9.8 meters per second^2. Now we just plug in numbers.

F=ma

F=(1 kg)(9.8 m/sec^2)

F=9.8 (kg x m)/sec^2

F=9.8 N

Hence the earth is applying 9.8 Newtons of force on the object due to gravity, so the object weighs <u>9.8 Newtons</u>
Hope this helps :)

A filamentary conductor is formed into an equilateral triangle with sides of length carrying current i . find the magnetic field
arsen [322]

magnetic field due to a finite straight conductor is given by

B = \frac{\mu_0 i}{4\pi r}(sin\theta_1 + sin\theta_2)

here since it forms an equilateral triangle so we will have

\theta_1 = \theta_2 = 60 degre

also the perpendicular distance of the point from the wire is

r = \frac{a}{2\sqrt3}

now from the above equation magnetic field due to one wire is given by

B = \frac{\mu_0 i}{4\pi \frac{a}{2\sqrt3}(sin60 + sin60)

B = \frac{\mu_0 i*2\sqrt3}{4\pi a}(\sqrt3)

B = \frac{3\mu_0 i}{2\pi a}

now since in equilateral triangle there are three such wires so net magnetic field will be

B = \frac{9\mu_0 i}{2\pi a}

The vitreous humor, a transparent, gelatinous fluid that fills most of the eyeball, has an index of refraction of 1.34. Visible
Leto [7]

Answer:

a)   298.5 nm ,  522.4 nm  and b)  radiation frequency does not change

Explanation:

When electromagnetic radiation reaches a medium with a different index of refraction, the medium vibrates the molecules, as if it were a resonance process, whereby the medium vibrates at the same frequency as the incident light.

On the other hand, when the light reaches another medium its average speed within the medium changes, it is now less than the speed of light in a vacuum (c) for this to happen as we saw that the frequency is constant there must be a change in the wavelength of the radiation that is characterized by the ratio

    λₙ = λ₀ / n

    λₙ = 400 nm    in the void

    λₙ = 400 / 1.34

    λₙ= 298.5 nm

   λ₀ = 700 nm

   λₙ = 700 / 1.34

   λₙ = 522.4 nm

The radiation frequency does not change

An explorer is caught in a whiteout (in which the snowfall is so thick that the ground cannot be distinguished from the sky) whi
mel-nik [20]

Answer:

Explanation:

All the displacement will be converted into vector, considering east as x axis and north as y axis.

5.3 km north

D = 5.3 j

8.3 km at 50 degree north of east

D₁= 8.3 cos 50 i + 8.3 sin 50 j.

= 5.33 i + 6.36 j

Let D₂ be the displacement which when added to D₁ gives the required displacement D

D₁ + D₂ = D

5.33 i + 6.36 j + D₂ = 5.3 j

D₂ = 5.3 j - 5.33i - 6.36j

= - 5.33i - 1.06 j

magnitude of D₂

D₂²= 5.33² + 1.06²

D₂ = 5.43 km

Angle θ

Tanθ = 1.06 / 5.33

= 0.1988

θ =11.25 ° south of due west.
