Answer:

A) 6N

Explanation:

the weight of the astronaut on earth can be calculated with the formula

Weight = mass * gravity of earth

Since the gravitational force is one-hundredth of Earth, the formula should be

Weight = mass * (gravity of earth / 100)

Weight = (mass * gravity of earth) / 100

Since you already know the weight, you only need to divide by 100

Weight = (mass * gravity of earth) / 100

Weight = 600N / 100

Weight = 6N

An unknown force pushes a 17 kilogram block across a smooth (frictionless) floor. three seconds after the force is first applied
shutvik [7]
By definition we know that Force is equal to mass by acceleration F = m * a. Also, by definition acceleration equals velocity between time a = v / t. Therefore, the expression for the force will be given by: F = m * (v / t). Substituting the values: F = 17 * (6/3) = 34N. The force is 34N

PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

549.9 ohms, 65.65 watts, the power went up

Explanation:  power P = V²/R

v= 190volts , P =62watts

from P =V²/R

62=190²/R

making R the subject

R×62= 190²

62R =36100

R=36100/62

R=586.25 ohms

Resistance of each lamp = 586.26/18 =32.3ohms

a) resistance of the light string now = 17×32.3 = 549.9 ohms

b) P=V²/R

where R=549.9ohms , P=?

P=190²/549.9

P=36100/549.9

P=65.65watts

Power dissipated has increased( went up )
