What is the difference in Neil Armstrong’s weight on the moon and on earth? Neils mass is 160kg including his spacesuit and back

pack. The moon’s gravitational pull is only 17% of the Earths gravitational pull. Assume the Earth’s gravitational pull is 10N/kg (if you can show working out.)

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of Neil Armstrong = 160kg

Gravitational pull of earth = 10N/kg

Moon's pull = 17% of the earth's pull

Unknown:

Difference between Armstrong's weight on moon and on earth.

Solution:

To find the weight,

   Weight = mass x acceleration due to gravity = mg

Moon's gravitational pull = 17% of the earth's pull = 17% x 10 = 1.7N/kg

Weight on moon = 160 x 1.7 = 272N

Weight on earth = 160 x 10 = 1600N

The difference in weight = 1600 - 272 = 1328N

The weight of Armstrong on earth is 1328N more than on the moon.

Answer:

SKID

Explanation:

In general, airplane tracks are flat, they do not have cant, consequently the friction force is what keeps the bicycle in the circle.

Let's use Newton's second law, let's set a reference frame with the horizontal x-axis and the vertical y-axis.

Y axis y

     N- W = 0

     N = W

X axis (radial)

        fr = m a

the acceleration in the curve is centripetal

         a = \frac{v^2}{r}

the friction force has the expression

        fr = μ N

we substitute

       μ mg = m v²/r

       v = \sqrt{\mu g r}

we calculate

      v = \sqrt{0.1 \ 9.8 \ 3}

      v = 1,715 m / s

to compare with the cyclist's speed let's reduce to the SI system

        v₀ = 18 km / h (1000 m / 1 km) (1 h / 3600 s) = 5 m / s

We can see that the speed that the cyclist is carrying is greater than the speed that the curve can take, therefore the cyclist will SKID

What was the voltage on the battery for the #2 series circuit with two light bulbs?A: 4 VB: 18 VC: 4.5 VD: 9 V
Ghella [55]

We are given a series circuit with two light bulbs. In this case, the light bulbs act as resistors in series and the total resistance is:

R_t=R_1+R_2

That is the sum of all the resistances in series in the circuit. To determine the voltage we can use Ohm's law:

V=IR

Where "R" is the total resistance and "I" is the current in the circuit. Replacing we get:

V=I(R_1+R_2)

Answer:

It’s called a conservative field.

Explanation:

I think it’s going to be the conservative field because in the question it talks about how it is able to become possible to define potential at a point in an electric field because electric field.

Use ideas of electromagnetic induction to explain how the input voltage is transformed into an output voltage
devlian [24]

With the help of a transformer  input voltage is transformed into an output voltage

​

<h3>What is induced voltage?</h3>

Electromagnetic induction is what causes the induced voltage. Electromagnetic induction is the process of generating emf (induced voltage) by subjecting a conductor to a magnetic field.

In this case, a magnet is pushed in and out of a wire coil attached to a high-resistance voltmeter.

Typically, a transformer's primary winding is attached to the input voltage source and changes electrical power into a magnetic field.

The secondary winding's role is to turn this alternating magnetic field into electricity, generating the necessary output voltage.

Hence with the help of a transformer input voltage is transformed into an output voltage.
