Answer: Weight only.

Explanation: Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object. Weight is a measure of the gravitational force exerted on the material in a gravitational field. Mass and weight are proportional to each other, with the acceleration due to gravity as the proportionality constant.

If a rock is transported from the moon to the earth, the mass is constant for the object but the weight will depends on the locations of the object. The gravitational acceleration would change because the radius and mass of the Moon is different from the Earth.

Thus, the object (rock) has <em>mass, m</em> both on the surface of the Earth and the surface of the Moon; but it will <em>weight</em> much less on the surface of the Moon as the Moon's surface gravity is 1/6 of the Earth.

For this case we have that by definition, the kinetic energy is given by the following formula:

k= \frac {1} {2} * m * v ^ 2

Where:

m: It is the mass

v: It is the velocity

According to the data we have to:

m = 100 \ kg\\v = 9 \frac {m} {s}

Substituting the values we have:

k = \frac {1} {2} * (100) * (9) ^ 2\\k = \frac {1} {2} * (100) * 81\\k = 50 * 81\\k = 4050

finally, the kinetic energy is 4050 \ J

A current of 0.2 A flows through a conductor for 5minutes. How much charge would have passed through the conductor?​
Montano1993 [528]

As we know,

electric \:  \: current =  \dfrac{charge}{time}

so, let's solve for charge (q) :

time = 5 minutes = 5 × 60 seconds = 300 seconds.

  • 0.2 =  \dfrac{q}{300}

  • q = 300 \times 0.2

  • q = 60

hence, the charge = 60 coulombs (C)
