Question:

At the surface of Jupiter’s moon Io, the acceleration due to gravity is g=1.81 m/s². A watermelon weighs 56.0 N at the surface of the earth.

(a) What is the watermelon’s mass on the earth’s surface?

(b) What would be its mass and weight on the surface of Io?

Answer:

The answer to the question is

(a) 5.71 kg

(b) 10.34 N

Explanation:

The Weight of an object is given by

Weight = Mass × Acceleration due to gravity

on Earth the weight of the watermelon = 56 N

Therefore

The mass of the watermelon = \frac{Weight}{Acceleration.due . to . gravity} = 56/9.8 = 5.71 kg

(b) On the surface of lo, the weight of the watermelon will be

Weight = Mass × Acceleration due to gravity

Where acceleration due to gravity on lo = 1.81 m/s²

Therefore the weight of the watermelon on lo = 1.81×5.7

= 10.34 N

Answer: 5.71kg and 10.33N

Explanation:

Recall,

Weight =mass × g

Where w = 56.0 N , g = 9.8 m/s2

56= m × 9.8

M = 56/9.8

M = 5.71 kg

At the surface of the moon, the mass still remains 5.71kg because it is a fundamental quantity it does not change irrespective of position.

Weight at the moon surface will change as a result of change in gravity. Hence, weight = mg

Where g=1.81m/s2, m= 5.71

W = 5.71×1.81

W = 10.33N

A boat sails south with the help of a wind blowing in the direction S36°E with magnitude 300 lb. Find the work done by the wind
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

The work done by the wind as the boat moves 130 ft is (rounded) W= 31,550 ft-lb.

Explanation:

F= 300 lb < -54º

Fsouth= 300 lb * cos(36º)

Fsouth= 242.7 lb

d= 130 ft

W= F*d

W= 31551 ft-lb

Dr. Clairmont will have his psychology students training dogs from the local animal shelter to sit using various types of reinfo
olga2289 [7]

Answer:Habituation is a simple learned behavior in which an animal gradually stops responding to a repeated stimulus.

Imprinting is a specialized form of learning that occurs during a brief period in young animals—e.g., ducks imprinting on their mother.

In classical conditioning, a new stimulus is associated with a pre-existing response through repeated pairing of new and previously known stimuli.

In operant conditioning, an animal learns to perform a behavior more or less frequently through a reward or punishment that follows the behavior.

Some animals, especially primates, are capable of more complex forms of learning, such as problem-solving and the construction of mental maps.

Introduction

If you own a dog—or have a friend who owns a dog—you probably know that dogs can be trained to do things like sit, beg, roll over, and play dead. These are examples of learned behaviors, and dogs can be capable of significant learning. By some estimates, a very clever dog has cognitive abilities on par with a two-and-a-half-year-old human!
