Physics

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.

fiasKO [112]

Answer:

|F| = 393750  N

Explanation:

Given that,

Total mass of the train, m = 750000 kg

Initial speed, u = 84 m/s

Final speed, v = 42 m/s

Time, t = 80 s

We need to find the net force acting on the train. The formula for force is given by :

F = ma

F=\dfrac{m(v-u)}{t}\\\\F=\dfrac{750000\times (42-84)}{80}\\\\F=-393750\ N

So, the magnitude of net force is 393750  N.

Determine the vector perpendicular to the plane of A= 31+ 6j - 2k and B=4i-j +3k
Sliva [168]

The vector perpendicular to the plane of A = 3i+ 6j - 2k and B = 4i-j +3k is 16 i - 17 j - 27 k

Let r be the vector perpendicular to A and B,

r = A * B

A = 3i + 6j - 2k

B = 4i - j + 3k

a1 = 3

a2 = 6

a3 = - 2

b1 = 4

b2 = - 1

b3 = 3

a * b = ( a2 b3 - b2 a3 ) i + ( a3 b1 - b3 a1 ) j + ( a1 b2 - b1 a2 ) k

a * b = [ ( 6 * 3 ) - ( - 1 * - 2 ) ] i + [ ( - 2 * 4 ) - ( 3 * 3 ) ] j + [ ( 3 * - 1 ) - ( 4 * 6 ) ] k

a * b = 16 i - 17 j - 27 k

The perpendicular vector, r = 16 i - 17 j - 27 k

Therefore, the vector perpendicular to the plane of A = 3i + 6j - 2k and B = 4i - j + 3k is 16 i - 17 j - 27 k
