Answer:
No.
Explanation:
The scale actually measures the force that the object does against it, and that force is called the weight.
Such that if we have an object with mass M and we are on Earth, where the gravitational acceleration is g, the weight is:
W = M*g
Now, there is a unit called "kilogram-force"
Such that on Earth, an object that has a mass of 10 kilograms, weighs 10 kilograms-force.
Then from the weight measure, we can instantly know the mass of the object, but the thing that is being measured is the weight, not the mass.
Answer:
Use the principle of momentum
Initial momentum = final momentum
Momentum formula = Mass * Velocity
Explanation:
As light travels through a medium, it moves in a straight line path,but when light passes from one medium into another medium, the light path bends,Refraction takes place.
Answer: A) mass on earth surface = 5.91kg
B) mass on surface of jupiter = 5.91kg
C) weight on surface of jupiter = 10.697N
Explanation:
The relationship between weight (W), mass (m) and acceleration due gravity (g) is given below
W=mg
From the question, g= 9.8m/s² and weight on the surface on the earth is 58N
A) The mass of watermelon on earth is
m = 58/ 9.8 = 5.91kg
B) the mass of the watermelon on jupiter is 5.91kg.
You will notice this is the same as the mass of watermelon on earth and that is so because mass is a scalar quantity that does not depends on the distance away from the center of the earth (unlike weight which is a vector) thus making it constant all through any location.
C) mass of watermelon is 5.91kg, g=9.8m/s² weight of watermelon on jupiter is given below as
W = mg
W = 5.91 x 9.8
= 10.697N.
Answer:
F = 5
Explanation:
F = m x v^2/r = 2 x 10^2/5 =200/5 = 40 (N)
