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.

A car has a speed of 23 m/s and a momentum of 31,050 kg·m/s. What is the mass of the car?
Ilya [14]

Answer:

Mass = 1350kg

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Velocity = 23m/s

Momentum = 31,050 kg·m/s.

To find the mass of car;

Momentum can be defined as the multiplication (product) of the mass possessed by an object and its velocity. Momentum is considered to be a vector quantity because it has both magnitude and direction.

Mathematically, momentum is given by the formula;

Momentum = mass * velocity

Substituting into the equation, we have

31,050 = mass*23

Mass = 31,050/23

Mass = 1350kg

Therefore, the mass of the car is 1350 kilograms.

A car is moving at 25.5 m/s when it accelerates at 1.94 m/s^2 for 2.3 s. What is the car's final speed? (Keep in mind direction
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

29.96m/s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial speed  = 25.5m/s

Acceleration  = 1.94m/s²

Time  = 2.3s

Unknown:

Final speed of the car  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we are going to apply the right motion equation:

    v = u  + at

v is the final speed

u is the initial speed

a is the acceleration

t is the time taken

 Now insert the parameters and solve;

      v  = 25.5 + (1.94 x 2.3)  = 29.96m/s
