Answer:

On the surface of Mars:

Mass, m = 3.47 kg

Weight, W' = 13.186 N

Solution:

As per the question:

Acceleration due to gravity at the surface of Mars, g' = 3.8\ m/s^{2}

Weight of book on the Earth's surface, W = 34 N

Now,

We know that:

Weight, W = mg

where

m = mass of the body

a = acceleration due to gravity on the earth's surface = 9.8\ m/s^{2}

Thus the mass of the body on the surface of the earth, m:

m = \frac{W}{g} = \frac{34}{9.8} = 3.47\ kg

<em>Also, we know that mass is constant and it is the weight of the body that varies with the acceleration due to gravity.</em>

Now,

Mass of the body on the surface of Mars will be same and is equal to m = 3.47 kg

Weight of the book on the surface of Mars, W' = mg'

W' = 3.47\times 3.8 = 13.186\ N

A truck with 0.410 m radius tires travels at 25.0 m/s. What is the angular velocity of the rotating tires in radians per second?
Eduardwww [97]

relation between linear velocity and angular velocity is given as

v = R\omega

here

v = linear speed

R = radius

\omega = angular speed

now plug in all data in the equation

25.0 = 0.410 \omega

\omega  = \frac{25}{0.410}

\omega = 60.9 rad/s

so rotating speed is 60.9 rad/s

I NEED HELP I AM SO CONFUSED, WILL GIVE BRAIN.
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

210

Explanation:

A ball rolls horizontally off the cliff at a speed of 30 m/s. It takes 7 seconds for the ball to hit the ground. What is the height of the cliff and the horizontal distance traveled by the ball?

S = (1/2)*9.8 m/s^2 * 7^2 = 240.1 m if the ball is very dense so air resistance, and therefore terminal velocity, can be ignored.

S = v * t = 30 m/s * 7 s = 210 m for the horizontal distance, again assuming negligible air resistance.

A bungee jumper starts with 1000 J in their GPE store. After they jump they fall and are brought to a stop with the bungee cord.
pochemuha

Answer:

energy is equal to 1000 J

Explanation:

When the jumper is in the tent, he has a given height, this height gives him a gravitational potential energy, which forms his initial mechanical energy of 1000 J. After jumping, this energy is converted into elastic energy of the rope plus a remainder of potential energy gravitational, it does not reach the ground, but as the friction is negligible the total mechanical energy is conserved, therefore its energy is equal to 1000 J

This is a case of energy transformation, but the total value of mechanical energy does not change

A ball of mass 2 kg is kept on the hill of height 3 km. Calculate the potential energy possessed by it ?
zysi [14]
We know that -

P.E=m*g*h

Where,

m = mass

g = acceleration due to gravity

h=height

First we convert height into meters.

1 km = 1000 meters

3 km = 1000 * 3 meters = 3000 meters

So, putting the values in the above formula, and by taking 'g' = 9.8 m/s², we get-

P.E.= 2*3000*9.8

P.E.= 58800 Joules

P.E.= 58.8 kJ
