What is the weight (in pounds) of a 7.0 kilogram bowling ball on earths surface

Physics
1 answer:
alekssr [168]3 years ago
3 0

A bowling ball of 7.0 kg will be weighed around 15.54 lbs (pounds) at the surface of the Earth.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The weight of the bowling ball as given in the question,

W=7.0 \mathrm{kg}

Since we know that the force of gravity acting on an object at the surface of the Earth is 2.22 lb i.e. the object will be weighed as 2.22 lb at the surface of the Earth. Similarly, here in this case;

The weight of the bowling ball,

W=7.0 \mathrm{kg} \times 2.22 \frac{\mathrm{lb}}{\mathrm{kg}}

W=15.54 l b

Hence, the bowling ball will be weighed as 15.54 lbs at the surface of the Earth.

Imagine you have a collection of identical flat-bottomed coffee filters that can be nested (stacked inside of each other) so tha
skad [1K]

Answer:

the terminal velocity of 14 nested coffee filters is 3.2 m/s

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

we know that;

The terminal velocity is proportional to the square root of weight.

v ∝ √W

v = k√W

the proportionality constant depends upon the surface area and the density of the medium (like air). The coffee filters can be stacked such that the resulting area is roughly unchanged. So, the constant of proportionality k is also unchanged

v/√W = constant

v₂/√W₂ = v₁/√W₁

v₂ = v₁√(W₂ / W₁ )

given that;

v₁ = 0.856 m/s,

W₂ = 14W₁; meaning 14 coffee filters have 14 times the weight of a single coffee filter

so we substitute

v₂ = 0.856 √(14W₁  / W₁ )

v₂  = 0.856 √( 14( W₁/W₁)

v₂  = 0.856 √( 14(1)

v₂  = 0.856 √( 14 )

v₂  = 0.856 × 3.741657

v₂  = 3.2 m/s

Therefore, the terminal velocity of 14 nested coffee filters is 3.2 m/s

Which example describes a nonrenewable resource?
ioda

Answer: Examples of nonrenewable resources include crude oil, natural gas, coal, and uranium. These are all resources that are processed into products that can be used commercially. For example, the fossil fuel industry extracts crude oil from the ground and converts it to gasoline.
