A diamond with a mass of 45 g hangs motionless from a chain. what is the upward force of the chain on the diamond?

1 answer:

6 0

The upward force of the chain on the diamond would be the tension in the chain, and this tension would have to support the weight of the 45g that hangs from the chain.

mass = 45 g = 45/1000 kg = 0.045kg

Weight = mg = 0.045 * 10 ≈ 0.45N, g ≈ 10 m/s²

So the upward force is ≈ 0.45N.

What is the weight in Newtons of a ball with a mass of 7.77 kg?

rusak2 [61]

Answer:

76.1N

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of the ball = 7.77kg

Unknow:

Weight of balloon = ?

Solution:

Weight is the vertical force applied on a body.

Weight = mass x acceleration due gravity

So;

Weight = mass x acceleration due to gravity

So;

Weight = 7.77 x 9.8 = 76.1N

Please help me with questions 1, 2 and 3. i need a step by step explanation

kifflom [539]

Answer:

1) d

2) 5 m/s

3) 100

Explanation:

The equation of position x for a constant acceleration a and an initial velocity v₀, initial position x₀, time t is:

(i) $x=\frac{1}{2}at^2+v_0t+x_0$

The equation for velocity v and a constant acceleration a is:

(ii) $v=at+v_0$

1) Solve equation (ii) for acceleration a and plug the result in equation (i)

(iii) $a = \frac{v -v_0}{t}$

(iv) $x = \frac{v-v_0}{2t}t^2+v_0t + x_0$

Simplify equation (iv) and use the given values v = 0, x₀ = 0:

(v) $x=-\frac{v_0}{2}t + v_0t= \frac{v_0}{2}t$

2) Given v₀= 3m/s, a=0.2m/s², t=10 s. Using equation (ii) to get the final velocity v: $v=at+v_0=0.2\frac{m}{s^2} * 10s+3\frac{m}{s}=2\frac{m}{s}+3\frac{m}{s}=5\frac{m}{s}$
