Answer:

443.75 N

Explanation:

Weight is the force with which a planet can attract anybody towards its centre.

Weight = mass of body × acceleration due to gravity on that planet

Weight = 50 × 8.875 = 443.75 N

Answer:

Weight on Venus = 443.75 N

Explanation:

Weight of a body is the product of mass and acceleration due to gravity.

So we have

Weight = Mass x Acceleration due to gravity

W = mg

Mass, m = 50 kg

Acceleration due to gravity, g = 8.875 m/s²

W = 50 x 8.875 = 443.75 N

Weight on Venus = 443.75 N

In a photoelectric experiment, you shine light onto an electrode and record a current of 25 μA. When you apply +500 mV to the el

kkurt [141]

Answer:

2.083 V.

Explanation:

Stopping potential is the potential that is required to stop the current to zero . This potential is applied externally to oppose the potential created by the photoelectric effect . It gives the measure the photoelectric potential being generated .

Here current drops to 25 μA to 19 μA by a potential of 500mV

Change in current

= 25 - 19 = 6 μA

Voltage requirement for unit reduction in current

= 500 / 6 μA

To reduce current 0f 25 μA

requirement of V = (500 / 6 ) x 25 = 2083.33 mV = 2.083 V.

The correct equation for the x component of a vector named A with an angle measured from the x axis would be which of the follow

Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

Acosθ

Explanation:

The x-component of a vector is defined as :

Magnitude * cosine of the angle

Maginitude * cosθ

The magnitude is represented as A

Hence, horizontal, x - component of the vector is :

Acosθ

Furthermore,

The y-component is taken as the sin of the of the angle multiplied by the magnitude

Vertical, y component : Asinθ

A fixed mass of an ideal gas is heated from 50°C to 80°C (a) at constant volume and (b) at constant pressure. For which case do

soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

Specific heat at constant pressure is = 1.005 kJ/kg.K

Specific heat at constant volume is = 0.718 kJ/kg.K

Explanation:

given data

temperature T1 = 50°C

temperature T2 = 80°C

solution

we know energy require to heat the air is express as

for constant pressure and volume

Q = m × c × ΔT ........................1

here m is mass of the gas and c is specific heat of the gas and Δ T is change in temperature of the gas

here both Mass and temperature difference is equal and energy required is dependent on specific heat of air.

and here at constant pressure Specific heat is greater than the specific heat at constant volume,

so the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one unit mass by one degree at constant pressure is

Specific heat at constant pressure is = 1.005 kJ/kg.K

and

Specific heat at constant volume is = 0.718 kJ/kg.K

Anni [7]

Answer:

$I=38.181\ A$ is the current through the body of the man.

$E=34.5\ J$ energy dissipated.

Explanation:

Given:

time for which the current lasted, $t=43\times 10^{-6}\ s$

potential difference between the feet, $V=21000\ V$

resistance between the feet, $R=550\ \Omega$

$I=\frac{V}{R}$

$I=\frac{21000}{550}$

$I=38.181\ A$ is the current through the body of the man.

<u>Energy dissipated in the body:</u>

$E=I^2.R.t$

$E=38.181^2\times 550\times 43\times 10^{-6}$

$E=34.5\ J$
