Answer:

electrons

Explanation:

An electric current is said to exist when there is a net flow of electric charge through a region. In electric circuits this charge is often carried by electrons moving through a wire. It can also be carried by ions in an electrolyte, or by both ions and electrons such as in an ionized gas (plasma).

A man on the moon with a mass of 90 kilograms weighs 146 newtons. The radius of the moon is 1.74 x 106 meters, find the mass of
melisa1 [442]

Answer:

7.36 × 10^22 kg

Explanation:

Mass of the man = 90kg

Weight on the moon = 146N

radius of the moon =1.74×10^6

Weight =mg

g= weight/mass

g= 146/90 = 1.62m/s^2

From the law of gravitational force

g = GM/r^2

Where G = 6.67 ×10^-11

M = gr^2/G

M= 1.62 × (1.74×10^6)^2/6.67×10^-11

= 4.904×10^12/6.67×10^-11

=0.735×10^23

M= 7.35×10^22kg. (approximately) with option c

A bolt is dropped from a bridge under construction, falling 94 m to the valley below the bridge. (a) how much time does it take
gregori [183]
Refer to the diagram shown below.

When the bolt is dropped at a height of 94 m, its initial velocity, V, is zero.
The last 26% of its fall is at a height of 0.26*94 = 24.4 m.
At that time, the bolt has fallen by 94 - 24.4 = 69.56 m.

The time, t, for the bolt to fall a known distance obeys the equation 
s = Vt + (1/2)gt²,
where
s = 69.56 m, vertical distance traveled, and
g = acceleration due to gravity.

Therefore
69.56 = 0 + (1/2)*9.8*t²
t² = (69.56*2)/9.8
t = 3.7677 s

The total time, T, to fall 94 m is given by 
94 = (1/2)*9.8*T^2
T² = 19.1837
T = 4.38 s

The time taken to pass through the last 26% of its fall is
T - t = 4.38 - 3.7677 = 0.6122 s

The speed after falling 69.56 m is given by
V₁ = 0 + g*t = 36.9235 m/s

The speed with which the bolt strikes the ground is given by
V₂ = 0 +g*T = 9.8*4.38 = 42.924 m/s

Answer:
(a) The bolt takes 0.6122 s to pass through the last 26% of its fall.
(b) When the bolt begins the last 26% of its fall, its speed is 36.92 m/s (nearest hundredth).
(c) Just before it strikes the ground, the speed of the bolt is 42.94 m/s (nearest hundredth).

Your starship, the Aimless Wanderer,lands on the mysterious planet Mongo. As chief scientist-engineer,you make the following mea
melisa1 [442]

Answer:

m = 1.26*10²⁵ kg.

Explanation:

Assuming that the mass of the stone is much smaller than the mass of the planet, we can get the mass, applying the Universal Law of  Gravitation to both masses, as follows:

Fg = G* ms* mp / rp²

Now, if we apply Newton's 2nd Law to the mass of the stone, we can get the gravitational acceleration, as follows:

Fg = ms*a = ms*g ⇒ g = G*mp / rp²

First of all, we need to get the value of g.

Assuming that this acceleration is constant, we can appy the kinematic equations to this situation.

We know that the stone is thrown upward with an initial velocity vo = 15 m/s.

At the highest point in the trajectory, just before of changing direction, the stone comes momentarily to a stop.

At this point, applying the definition of acceleration, we can write:

vf = vo -g*t ⇒ 0 = vo -gt ⇒ g = vo/t (1)

We have the total time since the stone was thrown upwards, not the one used for the upward trajectory.

It can be showed, using the expression for the displacement (which is the same in both directions) that the time used for going up, it's the same used to go down, so the time that we need to put in (1). is just the half of the total time.

So, replacing in (1) we get the value of g, as follows:

g = 15 m/s / 4.5 s = 3.33 m/s²

Now, we can replace this value in the equation that gives us g based in the Universal Law of Gravitation, as follows:

g=G*mp / rp² (2)

Before solving for mp, however, we need to get the value of the radius of the planet.

Assuming that it's a perfect sphere, we can get this value from the value of the circumference at the planet's equator:

rp = 2*π*rp / 2*π ⇒ rp = 1.0*10⁵ km / 2*π = 15,915 km.

With this value for  rp, we can solve (2) for mp, as follows:

mp= g*rp² / G = 3.33 m/s² * (15,915 km)² / 6,67*10⁻¹¹ N.m²/kg²

mp = 1.26*10²⁵ kg.
