Answer:

See the explanation below, and the different answers

Explanation:

It is important to clarify that the mass is always preserved, that is, it does not vary regardless of the location of the person, whether the moon, Saturn, Mars. The value that changes is the weight, due to the gravity of each planet.

<u>On Earth</u>

<u />

m = 86[kg]

w = m * g

where:

g = gravity acceleration = 9.81[m/s^2]

w = weight = [N]

w = 86 * 9.81

w = 843.66 [N]

<u>On the Moon</u>

<u />

m = 86[kg]

w = m * g

where:

g = gravity acceleration * (1/6) = 9.81 * (1/6) = 1.635 [m/s^2]

w = weight = [N]

w = 86 * 1.635

w = 140.61 [N]

A 1200-kg SUV is moving alone a straight highway at 12.0 m/s. Another car, with mass 1800 kg and speed 20.0 m/s, has its center
andreev551 [17]

Answer:

A) d = 24 m

B) 50400 kg.m/s

C) v₀ = 16.8 m/s

D) 50400 kg.m/s. It's equal to the momentum found in part B.

Explanation:

We are given;

Mass of station wagon;m1 = 1200 kg Velocity; V = 12 m/s

Mass of car; m2 = 1800 kg

Velocity of car; v2 = 20 m/s

a ) Let centre of mass of car and station wagon be at a distance d from wagon

Thus,

If we take moment of weight about it, we have;

1200 x d = 1800 x ( 40 - d )

Where, d is the position of the center of mass of the system consisting of the two cars

Thus,

1200d = 72000 - 1800d

1200d + 1800d = 72000

3000 d = 72,000

d = 72,000/3000

d = 24 m

b ) Total momentum= m1•v1 + m2•v2

= (1200 x 12) + (1800 x 20)

= 14400 + 36000

= 50400 kg.m/s

c ) Let speed of centre of mass be v₀

Thus,

v₀ = (m1•v1 + m2•v2)/(m1 + m2)

v₀ = 50400/(1200 + 1800)

v₀ = 50400/3000

v₀ = 16.8 m/s

d) System Total momentum = velocity of centre mass x total mass

Thus,

Total momentum = v₀(m1 + m2)

= 16.8(3000) = 50400 kg.m/s .

This value is equal to what was calculated in part b

A dart is thrown from 1.50 m high at 10.0 m/s toward a target 1.73 m from the ground. At what angle was the dart thrown?
Triss [41]

Answer:

The angle of projection is 12.26⁰.

Explanation:

Given;

initial position of the dart, h₀ = 1.50 m

height above the ground reached by the dart, h₁ = 1.73 m

maximum height reached by the dart, Hm = h₁ - h₀ = 1.73 m - 1.50 m= 0.23 m

velocity of the dart, u = 10 m/s

The maximum height reached by the projectile is calculated as;

H_m = \frac{u^2sin^2 \theta}{2g}

where;

θ is angle of projection

g is acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

H_m = \frac{u^2sin^2 \theta}{2g}\\\\sin^2 \theta = \frac{H_m \ \times \ 2g}{u^2} \\\\sin^2 \theta = \frac{0.23 \ \times \ 2(9.8)}{10^2} \\\\sin ^2\theta =0.04508\\\\sin \theta = \sqrt{0.04508} \\\\sin \theta = 0.2123\\\\\theta  = sin^{-1}(0.2123)\\\\\theta  = 12.26^0

Therefore, the angle of projection is 12.26⁰.

Which of the following statements are true? Check all that apply.
lidiya [134]

We have 6 levels and we will verify which of them is true.

<em>A ) Electric charge is conserved </em>

According to the conservation of charge, an electric charge can neither be created nor be destroyed.

Therefore this statement is TRUE.

<em>B ) A positive charge and negative charge attract each other</em>

According to the properties of charges, the opposite charges attract each other and similar charges repel each other

Therefore this statement is  TRUE

<em>C) Two positive charges attract each other.</em>

Using the previous law, we can observe that this statement is false, because equal charges repel each other.

Therefore this statement is FALSE.

<em>D ) Two negative charges repel each other.</em>

Using the same principle as the two previous statements, two equal charges repel each other.

Therefore this statement is TRUE

<em>E) Electric charge is quantized.</em>

According to the quantization of charge, charges can take values only in integral multiples of a fundamental unit of charge.

Therefore this statement is TRUE.

<em>F) A neutral object contains no charge.</em>

A neutral object contains equal amount of negative and positive charge. Thus, in totality a neutral object contains no charge.

Therefore this statement is TRUE.

A materials density is the same , no matter how large or small the sample is or what it’s shape is as long as it is solid unifor
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

See the explanation below

Explanation:

Density is defined as the relationship between mass and volume, i.e. the following equation can be used:

density = m/v

where:

density [kg/m^3]

m = mass [kg]

v = volume [m^3]

If we change the volume of a body by reducing its size, its mass will also decrease proportionally with a density as seen in the equation.

m = density*v

To understand this concept more clearly, let's use the following example:

We know that the density of water is equal to 1000 [kg/m^3], that is, 1 cubic meter of water contains 1000 kilograms of water, using the equation.

1000 = m /1

m = 1000*1 = 1000 [kg]

Now if we have 500 kilograms of water, that would pass with the volume so that the density remains constant.

1000 = 500/v

v = 500/1000

v = 0.5 [m^3]

We can see that the volume of water has halved. Since the mass of water was reduced by half. That is, the relationship between mass and volume is proportional to the density of the material or substance.
