W = m • g

Weight = mass x local gravity.

The object's acceleration doesn't matter.

A fisherman is fishing from a bridge and is using a "44.0-N test line." In other words, the line will sustain a maximum force of
vitfil [10]

Answer:

a) 4.485 kg b) 3.94 kg

Explanation:

since the maximum tension the line can stand is 44 N and for question a the speed is constant (acceleration must be zero since the velocity or speed is not changing), F(tension) = mass * acceleration due to gravity (g) .

44 = m * 9.81m/s^2

m = 44/9.81 = 4.485kg

b) F(tension) = ma + mg ( where a is the acceleration of the body and g is the acceleration of the gravity)

44 = m (a +g)

44 = m (1.37 + 9.81)

44/11.18 = m

m = 3.94 kg

A 20 μF capacitor initially charged to 30 μC is discharged through a 1.5 kΩ resistor. Part A How long does it take to reduce the
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

it will take 36.12 ms to reduce the capacitor's charge to 10 μC

Explanation:

Qi= C×V

then:

Vi = Q/C = 30μ/20μ = 1.5 volts

and:

Vf = Q/C = 10μ/20μ = 0.5 volts

then:

v = v₀e^(–t/τ)  

v₀ is the initial voltage on the cap  

v is the voltage after time t  

R is resistance in ohms,  

C is capacitance in farads  

t is time in seconds  

RC = τ = time constant  

τ = 20µ x 1.5k = 30 ms  

v = v₀e^(t/τ)  

0.5 = 1.5e^(t/30ms)  

e^(t/30ms) = 10/3  

t/30ms = 1.20397

t = (30ms)(1.20397) = 36.12 ms

Therefore, it will take 36.12 ms to reduce the capacitor's charge to 10 μC.

Letters A B, C and D represent locations on a bar magnet. Which location has the greatest magnetic force? (l) A (3) C ets (2) B
Elena L [17]
Answer: The magnetic field of a bar magnet is strongest at either pole of the magnet. It is equally strong at the north pole compared with the south pole. The force is weaker in the middle of the magnet and halfway between the pole and the center. So it would be D.
