Answer:

m = 69.9 kg

Explanation:

The mass and the weight of an object are two different quantities. Mass is basically the amount of matter that is present in a body. It remains same everywhere in the universe and measured in kilograms.

Weight is basically a force. It is the force by which earth attracts everything towards itself. The weight of an object changes from planet to planet, with the change in value of the gravitational acceleration (g).

Therefore, the relation between mass and weight of an object is given by the following formula:

W = mg

m = W/g

where,

m = mass = ?

W = Weight = 685 N

g = 9.8 m/s²

Therefore,

m = (685 N)/(9.8 m/s²)

Answer:

39.8 m ≈ 40 m

Explanation:

power (P) = 50 W

sound intensity level ( $p$ ) = 94 dB

the distance (r) can be gotten from the equation I = $\frac{power}{4nr^{2} }$ (take not that π is shown as $n$ )

making r the subject of the formula we have r = $\sqrt{\frac{power}{4nI} }$ (take not that π is shown as $n$ )

But to apply this equation we need to get the value of the intensity (I)

we can get the intensity (I) from the formula sound intensity level ( $p$ ) = 10 log₁₀ $(\frac{I}{I'})$

rearranging the above formula we have intensity (I) = $I' x 10^{\frac{p}{10} }$

I' = reference intensity = 1 x $10^{-12} W/m^{2}$

now substituting all required values into the formula for intensity (I)

I = $1 x 10^{-12} x 10^{\frac{94}{10} }$ = 0.00251 $W/m^{2}$

now that we have the value of the intensity (I) we can substitute it into the formula for the distance (r)

distance (r) = $\sqrt{\frac{power}{4nI} }$

r = $\sqrt{\frac{50}{4x3.142x0.00251} }$ = 39.8 m ≈ 40 m

Thrust is a reaction force described quantitatively by Newton's third law. When a system expels or accelerates mass in one direction, the accelerated mass will cause a force of equal magnitude but opposite direction on that system. Mathematically can be written as,

$T = v\frac{dm}{dt}$
