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 <u>less</u> 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.

The smallness of the critical angle θc for diamond means that light is easily "trapped" within a diamond and eventually emerges
hoa [83]

Answer:

26.6°

Explanation:

refractive index of diamond, n = 2.23

When a ray of light passes from denser medium to the rarer medium and refracts at an angle of 90 degree from the normal of the surface, such angle of incidence in the denser medium is called the critical angle.

By the Snell's law

\frac{Sini}{Sin r }= n

For critical angle, angle of incidence is critical angle, i = θc and angle of refraction, r = 90

So,

Sin θc / Sin 90 = 1 / 2.23

Sin θc = 0.448

θc = 26.6°

Thus, the critical angle is 26.6°.

Two power lines run parallel for a distance of 220 m and are separated by a distance of 40.0 cm. If the current in each of the t
daser333 [38]

Answer:

The magnitude of force is 1.86 N and the direction of force is towards the other wire.

Explanation:

Given:

Current flowing through each power line, I = 130 A

Distance between the two power lines, d = 40 cm = 0.4 m

Length of power lines, L = 220 m

The force exerted by the power lines on each other is given by the relation:

F = \frac{\mu_{0}LII }{2\pi d}

Substitute the suitable values in the above equation.

F = \frac{4\pi\times10^{-7}\times220\times130\times130 }{2\pi\times0.4}

F = 1.86 N

Since the direction of current flowing through the power lines are opposite to each other, so the force is attractive in nature. Hence, the direction of force experienced by the power lines on each other is towards the each other.

A planet of mass 7.00 1025 kg is in a circular orbit of radius 6.00 1011 m around a star. The star exerts a force on the planet
BARSIC [14]

Answer:

A) 1.88 * 10^17 m

B) 1.22 * 10^34 J

C) 1.95 * 10^34 J

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Mass of planet = 7.00 * 10^25 kg

Radius of orbit = 6.00 * 10^11 m

Force exerted on planet = 6.51 * 10^22 N

Velocity of planet = 2.36 * 10^4 m/s

A) The distance traveled by the planet is half of the circumference of the orbit (which is circular).

The circumference of the orbit is

C = 2 * pi * R

R = radius of orbit

C = 2 * 3.142 * 6.0 * 10¹¹

C = 3.77 * 10¹² m

Hence, distance traveled will be:

D = 0.5 * 3.77 * 10¹²

D = 1.88 * 10 ¹² m/s

B) Work done is given as:

W = F * D

W = 652 * 10²² * 1.88 * 10¹¹

W = 1.22 * 10³⁴ J

C) Change in Kinetic energy is given as:

K. E. = 0.5 * m * v²

K. E. = 0.5 * 7 * 10^25 * (2.36 * 10^4)²

K. E. = 1.95 * 10³⁴ J
