Answer: a. Quadruple

Explanation:

Gravitational force = Gm1m2/r^2

(Where m1 is the mass of earth, m2 is my mass and r is the radius of earth and G is the gravity constant)

Weight = m2g

(Where g is the acceleration due to gravity)

Gm1m2/r^2 = m2g

Twice the masses

F = G(2m1)(2m2)/r^2

F = 4Gm1m2/r^2

The gravitational force has increased 4 times, this means that my weight on earth will quadruple

Your friends sit in a sled in the snow. If you apply a force pf 75 N to them, they have an acceleration of 0.9 m/s ^ 2. What is
Elza [17]

Answer:

Mass of the sled in the snow 83.33 kg.

<u>Explanation</u>:

Given that,  

Force applied to move the sled in the snow (F) = 75N

\text { Acceleration }(a)=0.9 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}

We know that

Newton's second law of motion is  

\text { Force }=\text { mass } \times \text { acceleration }

F = ma (Or "force" is equal to "mass" times "acceleration".)

So if we move this around we can isolate mass and get mass

\text { Mass }=\frac{\text { force }}{\text { accelearation }}

\mathrm{M}=\frac{75}{0.9}

M = 83.33 kg

Mass of the sled in the snow <u>83.33 kg.</u>

Little Tammy lines up to tackle Jackson to (unsuccessfully) prove the law of conservation of momentum. Tammy’s mass is 34.0 kg a
Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

So Tammy must move with speed 4.76 m/s in opposite direction of Jackson

Explanation:

As per law of conservation of momentum we know that there is no external force on it

So here we can say that initial momentum of the system must be equal to the final momentum of the system

now we have

m_1v_1 + m_2v_2 = 0

final they both comes to rest so here we can say that final momentum must be zero

now we have

34 v + 54 (3 m/s) = 0

v = -4.76 m/s

The earth has a vertical electric field at the surface, pointing down, that averages 100 N/C. This field is maintained by variou
Kipish [7]

Answer:

The excess charge on earth's surface was calculated to be 4.56 × 10⁵ C

Explanation:

Using the formula for an electric field;

E = kQ/r²

k = 1/(4πε₀) = 8.99 × 10⁹ Nm²/C²

E = 100N/C

r = radius of the earth = 6400 km = 6400000m

Q = Er²/k = 100 × (6400000)²/(8.99 × 10⁹)

Q = 455617.4 C = 4.56 × 10⁵ C

Hope this helps!!!

What is the fundamental frequency (in Hz) of a 0.632 m long tube, open at both ends, on a day when the speed of sound is 344 m/s
Greeley [361]

Answer:

f=272.15Hz

Explanation:

Given data

Length of tube L=0.632 m

Speed of sound v=344 m/s

To find

Fundamental frequency f

Solution

The fundamental frequency of the tube can be given as:

f=\frac{v}{2L}\\ f=\frac{344m/s}{2(0.632m)}\\ f=272.15Hz
