Weight refers to the force of gravity acting on a mass. We often calculate the weight of an object by multiplying its mass by th

e local acceleration due to gravity. The value of gravitational acceleration on the surface of Mars is 0.377 times that on Earth. If your mass is 85 kg, your weight on Earth is 830 N (m × g = 85 kg × 9.8 m/s² = 830 N). What would be your approximate mass and weight on Mars?

Answer:

85 Kg

314.041 N

Explanation:

We are given that

Mass  of body on earth=85 kg

Acceleration due to gravity on earth=9.8 m/s^2

Weight of body on earth=830 N

We have to find the mas of body and weight of body on Mars.

We know that mass of an object does not change with location .

It remain same everywhere.

Mass of body on Mars=85 kg

Gravitational acceleration on the surface of Mars=0.377 \times 9.8=3.6946 m/s^2

We know that

Weight =mg

Using this formula

Weight of body=3.6946\times 85=314.041 N

Hence, the weight of body on Mars=314.041 N

One of the harmonics on a string 1.30m long has a frequency of 15.60 Hz. The next higher harmonic has a frequency of 23.40 Hz. F
Alja [10]

Answer:

\large \boxed{\text{(a) 7.800 Hz; (b) 20.3 m/s; 40.6 m/s; 60.8 m/s}}

Explanation:

a) Fundamental frequency

A harmonic is an integral multiple of the fundamental frequency.

\dfrac{\text{23.40 Hz}}{\text{15.60 Hz}} = \dfrac{1.500}{1} \approx \dfrac{3}{2}

f = \dfrac{\text{24.30 Hz}}{3} = \textbf{7.800 Hz}

b) Wave speed

(i) Calculate the wavelength

In a  fundamental vibration, the length of the string is half the wavelength.

\begin{array}{rcl}L & = & \dfrac{\lambda}{2}\\\\\text{1.30 m} & = & \dfrac{\lambda}{2}\\\\\lambda & = & \text{2.60 m}\\\end{array}

(b) Calculate the speed s

\begin{array}{rcl}v_{1}& = & f_{1}\lambda\\& = & \text{7.800 s}^{-1} \times \text{2.60 m}\\& = & \textbf{20.3 m/s}\\\end{array}

\begin{array}{rcl}v_{2}& = & f_{2}\lambda\\& = & \text{15.60 s}^{-1} \times \text{2.60 m}\\& = & \textbf{40.6 m/s}\\\end{array}

\begin{array}{rcl}v_{3}& = & f_{3}\lambda\\& = & \text{23.40 s}^{-1} \times \text{2.60 m}\\& = & \textbf{60.8 m/s}\\\end{array}

25. Explain why the speed of sound is faster in solids than in gases. Include two other factors Chapter 17 says the speed of sou
aksik [14]
In solids, particles or atom are very closely arranged compared to gasses. When these particles are arranged in such proximity, vibrations from sound are very easily transmitted from one particle to another in the solid. Hence, the sound vibrations can travel through the solid medium more quickly than through a gas medium.
Speed of sound also depends on its frequency and the wavelength.

What type of waves are sound waves, and how do they<br> transfer energy?
klemol [59]

Answer:

Sound wave types - longitudinal waves

Longitudinal waves - Vibrating string the creates sound in the way it moves.

Explanation:

Longitudinal waves have particles of the medium that are displaced in a parallel direction to energy transport.

About ________ percent of wais scores fall between 70 and 130.
stiv31 [10]
It is about 95%. The Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale-IV is an IQ test that is given by therapists and measures worldwide scholarly working. It incorporates both verbal and nonverbal parts. The normal score for all tests and subtests is 100; therefore, a score of more than 100 is better than expected and beneath 100 is underneath normal.
