Difference between mass and weight worksheet

Physics
1 answer:
Margaret [11]3 years ago
6 0
Hi

There is a basic difference<span>, because </span>mass<span> is the actual amount of material contained in a body and is measured in kg, gm, etc. Whereas </span>weight<span> is the force exerted by the gravity on that object mg. Note that </span>mass<span> is independent of everything but </span>weight<span> is different on the earth, moon, etc.</span>

A cylindrical tungsten filament 16.0 cm long with a diameter of 1.00 mm is to be used in a machine for which the temperature wil
KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Resistance of the tungsten wire

R = resistivity x length / cross sectional area

= \frac{5.25\times10^{-8}\times16\times10^{-2}}{3.14\times(.5\times10^{-3})^2}

= 107 x 10⁻⁴ ohm

Resistance at 120 degree can be obtained from the following formula

R_t = R_0( 1 + \alpha\times t )

R_t = 107\times10^{-4}( 1 + .0045\times 100)

= 155.15 x 10⁻⁴ ohm

= 160 x 10⁻⁴ ohm ( rounding off to two syg fig )

current = 12.5

potential diff = 12.5 x 155.15 x 10⁻⁴ V

=  0 .1939 V

= .19 V

required electric field = potential diff / length of wire

= .1939 / 16 x 10⁻²

= 1.2 N / C

In a typical rear-end collision, the victim's ________ is/are accelerated faster and harder than the torso
Georgia [21]

The victim's head is accelerated faster and harder than the torso when the victom is involved in a typical rear-end collision.

The traffic accident where a vehicle crashes into another vehicle that is directly in front of it is called a rear-end collision.

 

One of the most common accident in the United States is the rear-end collision, and in a lot of cases, rear-end collisions are prompted by drivers who are inattentive, unfavorable conditions of the road, and poor following distance.

 

<span>An enough room in front of your car so you can stop when the car in front of you stops suddenly is one basic driving rule. The person isn’t driving safely if he / she is behind you and couldn’t stop.</span>

A 0.150-kg lump of clay is dropped from a height of 1.15 m onto the floor. it sticks to the floor and does not bounce.
Serggg [28]
Missing question: "<span>What is the magnitude of the impulse I imparted to the clay by the floor during the impact?"

Solution:
The impulse is equal to the variation of momentum of the object: 
</span>I=\Delta p=m \Delta v
<span>where m is the mass of the object and </span>\Delta v is the variation of velocity of the object during the impact.

By using energy conservation, we can calculate the velocity of the object before the impact. In fact, the initial potential energy of the object is all converted into kinetic energy before the impact:
mgh= \frac{1}{2}mv^2
from which we find v:
v= \sqrt{2gh}= \sqrt{2 \cdot 9.81 m/s^2 \cdot 1.15 m}=4.75 m/s

This is the velocity of the object just before the impact. After the impact, the object comes to rest: this means that the variation of velocity of the object is equal to 4.75 m/s. Therefore, the impulse is

I=m \Delta v=(0.150 kg)(4.75 m/s)=0.71 Kg m s^{-1}
