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.

John and Linda are arguing about the definition of density. John says the density of an object is proportional to itsmass. Linda
NeX [460]

Answer:

They are both correct.

Explanation:

The density of an object is defined as the ratio of its mass to its volume. This implies that the density of the object is both proportional to the mass and also to the volume of the object. John only mentioned mass which is correct. Linda mentioned the second variable on which density depends which is the volume of the object.

Hence considering the both statements objectively, one can say that they are both correct.

An ambulance is traveling north at 55.9 m/s, approaching a car that is also traveling north at 28.4 m/s. The ambulance driver he
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

915 Hz

Explanation:

The observed frequency from a sound source is given as

f₀ = f [(v + v₀)/(v+vₛ)]

where

f₀ = observed frequency of the sound by the observer = ?

f = actual frequency of the sound wave = 983 Hz

v = actual velocity of the sound waves = 343 m/s

vₛ = velocity of the source of the sound waves = 55.9 m/s

v₀ = velocity of the observer = 28.4 m/s

f₀ = 983 [(343+28.4)/(343+55.9)]

f₀ = 915.2 Hz = 915 Hz
