A weightlifter can exert an upward force of 3750 N. If a dumbbell has a mass of 225 kg, what is the maximum number of dumbbells

this weightlifter could hold simultaneously if he were on the Moon? (The Moon's acceleration due to gravity is approximately 0.166 times freefall acceleration on Earth.) The weightlifter cannot pick up a fraction of a dumbbell, so make sure your answer is an integer.

Answer:

10 dumbbells

Explanation:

First we need to calculate the gravity on the moon.

0.166 x 9.8 m/s² = 1.627 m/s²  (the gravity is 0.166 times the Earth's gravity)

Taking this acceleration due to gravity, and multiplying it by the mass of a single dumbbell.

F = m x a

F = (225 kg) x (1.627 m/s²)

F = 366.075 N  (the amount of force exerted by the dumbbell)

Taking the weightlifter's total upward force and dividing it by the force exerted by one dumbbell, we can calculate the amount of dumbbells that can be carried.

(3750 N) / (366.075 N)

= 10.24 dumbbells  (but since there cannot be a fraction of a dumbbell, the answer is <u>10 dumbbells</u>).

he cans have essentially the same size, shape, and mass. Which can has more energy at the bottom of the ramp
stepladder [879]

Answer:

c. both have same energy

Explanation:

The complete question is

suppose you have two cans, one with milk, and the other with refried beans. The cans have essentially the same size, shape, and mass. If you release both cans at the same time, on a downhill ramp, which can has more energy at the bottom of the ramp? ignore friction and air resistance..

a. can with beans

b. can with milk

c. both have same energy

please explain your answer

Since both cans have the same size, shape, and mass, and they are released at the same height above the ramp, they'll possess the same amount of mechanical energy. This is because their mechanical energy, which is the combination of their potential and kinetic energy are both dependent on their mass. Also, having the same physical quantities like their size and shape means that they will experience the same environmental or physical factors, which will be balanced for both.

Can anyone help me to explain theory of relativity??? ​
OLga [1]

Answer:

The theory of relativity usually encompasses two interrelated theories by Albert Einstein: special relativity and general relativity, proposed and published in 1905 and 1915, respectively. Special relativity applies to all physical phenomena in the absence of gravity. General relativity explains the law of gravitation and its relation to other forces of nature.It applies to the cosmological and astrophysical realm, including astronomy.

The theory transformed theoretical physics and astronomy during the 20th century, superseding a 200-year-old theory of mechanics created primarily by Isaac Newton. It introduced concepts including spacetime as a unified entity of space and time, relativity of simultaneity, kinematic and gravitational time dilation, and length contraction. In the field of physics, relativity improved the science of elementary particles and their fundamental interactions, along with ushering in the nuclear age. With relativity, cosmology and astrophysics predicted extraordinary astronomical phenomena such as neutron stars, black holes, and gravitational waves
