Physics

Answer:

88.89kg

Explanation:

The formula for mass is m=F/a. If we plug in the values, we get m=400N/4.5m/s^2. The mass is 88.89kg. We know that the unit is in kg because one newton (N) is 1kg*m/s^2. The m/s^2 is cancelled out by the acceleration, and we are left with kg.

MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

0J

Option: B

Explanation:

Work is done when something is moved by the force in the direction of the force. That is the force (e.g., the weight) and the direction the object moves must be aligned for work to be done. In this given condition, the direction is horizontal and the force is downward as its gravity force. That 90° between the two vectors.

The work function is W = m × g ×h × cosθ

\text { Where, in this case theta }=90^{\circ}

Hence,  

Work done = 7 × 9.8 × 1.5 × cos(90)  

Work done = 0 (cos90^{\circ} = 0)

Work done = 0

Therefore work done is 0 J.

What is the wavelength (in air) of a 13.0 khz vlf radio wave?
bonufazy [111]
Since,
Speed = Frequency * WaveLength

=> WaveLength = Speed / Frequency --- (A)

Frequency = 13.0 kHz.
As the radio waves are electromagnetic waves, their speed is equals to the speed of light. Therefore,
Speed = C = 3 *  10^{8}  m/ s^{2}

Plug in the values in equation(A):

A => WaveLength = \frac{3 * 10^{8}}{13*10^{3}}

Ans: Wavelength = 23.077 kilometers.

What do you think that astronomers mean when they use the term observable universe?
iren2701 [21]
The observable universe consists of galaxies and other matter that can, principally, be seen from Earth because the light signals have had time to reach us. Not everything in the sky is the way it is when we see it, because of the distance the light travels to reach us. 

Hope this helps :)
