On mars people would way less.
An example of this is that if I weighed 700 pounds (I don't by the way) I would then weigh 500 pounds or less.

Answer: On Mars, a person will weigh less than on Earth.

Explanation:

The mass of the planet Mars is less than Earth. Because of this it pulls the objects on it with less force and thus Mars has less value of acceleration due to gravity.

The weight of the object is given by the product of mass and acceleration due to gravity.

W = m g'

W ∝ g'

The mass remains constant irrespective of the planet but weight varies with the value of acceleration due to gravity. Thus, on Mars, a person will weigh less than on Earth.

¿Qué características debe tener el movimiento de una persona para que el valor del desplazamiento sea igual al de la distancia r

SIZIF [17.4K]

Explanation:

What characteristics must the movement of a person have so that the value of the displacement is equal to the distance traveled?

Displacement is equal to the shortest path covered by an object. It is given by the difference of final position and the initial position.

Distance is equal to the total path covered by an object during the journey.

When an object moves in a straight line path, in this case, the displacement is equal to the distance traveled.

Each ball has a negligible size and a mass of 11.5 kg and is attached to the end of a rod whose mass may be neglected. The rod i

Digiron [165]

Answer:

3.31m/s

Explanation:

Angular momentum for 3s is

$L = L_i_n_i + L_3_s$

$L = 2(11.5kg) + \int\limits^ {3s}_ {0s} {(t^2 + 2)} \, dt$

$L = 23kg+(\frac{t^3}{3} +2t)^ {3s}_ {0s}\\\\L=38kgm/s$

Moment if inertia is

$I = 2ml^2$

$I = 2(11.5)(0.5)^2\\\\I=5.75kgm^2$

Angular speed

ω = L/I

$= 38 / 5.75\\\\=6.61$

The speed of each ball is

V = ωL

$= 6.61\times0.5\\\\= 3.31m/s$

My personal understanding and opinion is that ALL of those questions
should be part of an assessment of Physical Activity Readiness.

A student claims "everything falls at the same acceleration rate on the Moon, where there is no air or friction," how would you

Alexeev081 [22]

Now let’s say you’re on the Moon. If you were to drop a hammer and a feather from the same height, which would hit the ground first?

Trick Question! On the moon both objects would hit the ground at the same time. On Earth, the hammer lands first.

So yeah, the student is right. Galileo gave us this theory long ago.

The half-life of Co-55 is 175 hours. How much of a 4000 g of Cobalt-55 sample would be left after 525 hours?

Harrizon [31]

We know that whatever amount we start with, half of it decays and forms atoms of other elements in 175 hours. So in order to figure out how much is left after 525 hours, we'll need to know how many half-lifes pass in that amount of time.

Well, (525 divided by 175) is exactly 3 half-lifes. So this will be easy.

-- After 1 half-life . . .

. . . . . 50% decays, 50% is still there.

-- After the 2nd half-life . . .

. . . . . (half of the leftover 50%) = another 25% decays, 25% is left.

-- After the 3rd half-life . . .

. . . . . (half of the leftover 25%) = another 12.5% decays, 12.5% is left.

12.5% of 4,000g = (0.125 x 4,000g) = 500 g .

============================================

Another way:

After 1 half-life, 1/2 is left.

After 2 half-lifes, 1/4 is left.

After 3 half-lifes, 1/8 is left.

1/8 of 4,000g = (4,000g/8) = 500 g .
