An object weighs 55.54 newtons. What is its mass if a gravitometer indicates that g = 9.83 m/s2?

1 answer:

8 0

   Weight = (mass) x (gravity)

Divide each side by (gravity): Mass = (weight) / (gravity) =

   (55.54 N) / (9.83 m/s²) =

   5.65 kilograms

Advocard [28]

The smallest level of organization in living things is the atom.

Next in line would be the cell, since a cell is made up of atoms working together. Next, cells working together would make up a tissue, and further, tissues working together would make up an organ.

Can a goalkeeper at his goal kick a soccer ball into the opponent’s goal without the ball touching the ground? The distance will

zmey [24]

The goalkeeper at his goal cannot kick a soccer ball into the opponent’s goal without the ball touching the ground

Explanation:

Consider the vertical motion of ball,

We have equation of motion v = u + at

Initial velocity, u = u sin θ

Final velocity, v = 0 m/s

Acceleration = -g

Substituting

v = u + at

0 = u sin θ - g t

$t=\frac{usin\theta }{g}$

This is the time of flight.

Consider the horizontal motion of ball,

Initial velocity, u = u cos θ

Acceleration, a =0 m/s²

Time, $t=\frac{usin\theta }{g}$

Substituting

s = ut + 0.5 at²

$s=ucos\theta \times \frac{usin\theta }{g}+0.5\times 0\times (\frac{usin\theta }{g})^2\\\\s=\frac{u^2sin\theta cos\theta}{g}\\\\s=\frac{u^2sin2\theta}{2g}$
