Answer: The correct answer is option C.

Explanation:

Weight = Mass × Acceleration

Let the mass of the space probe be m

Acceleration due to gravity on the earth = g

Weight of the space probe on earth = W

W=m\times g

Acceleration due to gravity on the Jupiter = g' = 2.5g

Weight of the space probe on earth = W'

W'=mg'=m\times 2.5g

\frac{W'}{W}=\frac{m\times 2.5g}{m\times g}

W'=2.5\times W

The weight of the space probe on the Jupiter will be 2.5 times the weight of the space probe on earth.

Hence, the correct answer is option C.

If a body p with a positive charge is placed in contact with a body q (initially uncharged), what will be the nature of the char
uysha [10]

If a body p with a positive charge is placed in contact with a body q (initially uncharged), then the nature of charge gained by q must be positive, because rubbing an uncharged body with a charged body or placed in contact with a positive charged body, helps gain a charge to the uncharged body.

There are a variety of methods to charge an object. One method is known as induction. In the induction process, a charged object is brought near but not touched to a neutral conducting object.

Let's know, how a element gain positive charge?

A positive charge occurs when the number of protons exceeds the number of electrons. A positive charge may be created by adding protons to an atom or object with a neutral charge. A positive charge also can be created by removing electrons from a neutrally charged object.

makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

562.5J

Explanation:

The following were obtained from the question:

F = 45N

d = 12.5m

w =?

The work done can be achieved by using

w = F x d

w = 45 x 12.5

w = 562.5J

Characteristics that a scientific measuring tool should have
bixtya [17]

Answer:

RELIBILITY - is the consistency of your measurement, or the degree to which an

instrument measures the same way each time it is used under the same condition with the

same subjects. In short, it is the repeatability of your measurement. A measure is considered

reliable if a person's score on the same test given twice is similar. It is important to

remember that reliability is not measured, it is estimated. A good instrument will produce

consistent scores. An instrument’s reliability is estimated using a correlation coefficient of

one type or another.

VALIDITY

VALIDITY - Validity is the extent to which a test measures what it claims to measure. It is

vital for a test to be valid in order for the results to be accurately applied and interpreted.

Validity isn’t determined by a single statistic, but by a body of research that demonstrates

the relationship between the test and the behavior it is intended to measure. There are three

types of validity: It is the strength of our conclusions, inferences or propositions. More

formally, Cook and Campbell (1979) define it as the "best available approximation to the

truth or falsity of a given inference, proposition or conclusion."

PRACTICIBILITY

PRACTICIBILITY - It should be feasible & usable. Quality of being usable in context to the

objective to be achieved.

USABILITY

USABILITY(practicality) ease in administration, scoring, interpretation and application, low

cost, proper mechanical make – up

MEASUREABILITY

MEASUREABILITY - It should measure the objective to be achieved.

as the bright sun shines upon the water, the water slowly disappears . the same sunlight gives energy to the surrounding plants
Nata [24]
As the bright sun shines upon the water, the water slowly dissapears. This is an example of physical change because here the water is just transformed into water vapour. So only the state and the shape of the substance has changed. Its originality remains absolutely intact. In the second case where the same sunlight gives energy to the surrounding plants to convert water and carbon dioxide into sugar and oxygen gas, it is a chemical change. here new substances are formed and the identity of the original substances are lost.In chemical reactions, the mass of the product will always be the same as the mass of the reactants.
