Which person is weightless?

Physics
1 answer:
ahrayia [7]3 years ago
7 0

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The force of gravity acting on an object helps in determining the weight of an object. But a place where there will be no gravity or have zero gravitational pull then it means the person will be weightless.

For example, force of gravity on moon is zero which means any object or person on moon will be weightless.

On the other hand, when a child is in the air as she plays on a trampoline then it means gravitational pull form the earth is acting on it. So, it will definitely has some weight.

Similarly, a scuba diver exploring a deep-sea wreck is under the ground where there will be force of gravity. Hence, it will also have some weight.

Thus, we can conclude that an astronaut on the Moon is the person who is weightless.

Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

a. 1.027 x 10^7 m/s b. 3600 V c. 0 V and d. 1.08 MeV

Explanation:

a. KE =1/2 (MV^2) where the M is mass of electron

b. E = V/d

c. V= 0 V (momentarily the pd changes to zero)

d KE= 300*3600 v = 1.08 MeV

Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

Time of flight  A is greatest

Explanation:

Let u₁ , u₂, u₃ be their initial velocity and θ₁ , θ₂ and θ₃ be their angle of projection. They all achieve a common highest height of H.

So

H = u₁² sin²θ₁ /2g

H = u₂² sin²θ₂ /2g

H = u₃² sin²θ₃ /2g

On the basis of these equation we can write

u₁ sinθ₁ =u₂ sinθ₂=u₃ sinθ₃

For maximum range we can write

D = u₁² sin2θ₁ /g

1.5 D = u₂² sin2θ₂ / g

2 D =u₃² sin2θ₃ / g

1.5 D / D = u₂² sin2θ₂ /u₁² sin2θ₁

1.5 = u₂ cosθ₂ /u₁ cosθ₁      ( since , u₁ sinθ₁ =u₂ sinθ₂ )

u₂ cosθ₂ >u₁ cosθ₁

u₂ sinθ₂ < u₁ sinθ₁

2u₂ sinθ₂ / g < 2u₁ sinθ₁ /g

Time of flight B < Time of flight  A

Similarly we can prove

Time of flight C < Time of flight B

Hence Time of flight  A is greatest .

Greyhound pursues a hare and takes 5 leaps for every 6 leaps of the hare, but
maw [93]

{\large{\bold{\rm{\underline{Given \; that}}}}}

★ A grey hound pursues a hare and takes 5 leaps for every 6 leaps of the hare, but 3 leaps of the hound are equal to 5 leaps of the hare.

{\large{\bold{\rm{\underline{To\; find}}}}}

★ The speed of the hound and the hare

{\large{\bold{\rm{\underline{Solution}}}}}

★ The speed of the hound and the hare = 25:18

{\large{\bold{\rm{\underline{Full \; Solution}}}}}

\dashrightarrow  As it's given that a grey hound pursues a hare and takes 5 leaps for every 6 leaps of the hare, but 3 leaps of the hound are equal to 5 leaps of the hare.

 So firstly let us assume a metres as the distance covered by the hare in one leap.

Ok now let's talk about 5 leaps,.! As it's cleared that the hare cover the distance of 5a metres.

 But 3 leaps of the hound are equal to 5 leaps of the hare.

Henceforth, (5/3)a meters is the distance that is covered by the hound.

 Now according to the question,

Hound pursues a hare and takes 5 leaps for every 6 leaps of the hare..! (Same interval)

Now the distance travelled by the hound in it's 5 leaps..!

  • (5/3)a × 5

  • 25/3a metres

 Now the distance travelled by the hare in it's 6 leaps..!

  • 6a metres

 Now let us compare the speed of the hound and the hare. Let us calculate them in the form of ratio..!

  • 25/3a = 6a

  • 25/3 = 6

  • 25:18
