Answer: A) mass on earth surface = 5.91kg

B) mass on surface of jupiter = 5.91kg

C) weight on surface of jupiter = 10.697N

Explanation:

The relationship between weight (W), mass (m) and acceleration due gravity (g) is given below

W=mg

From the question, g= 9.8m/s² and weight on the surface on the earth is 58N

A) The mass of watermelon on earth is

m = 58/ 9.8 = 5.91kg

B) the mass of the watermelon on jupiter is 5.91kg.

You will notice this is the same as the mass of watermelon on earth and that is so because mass is a scalar quantity that does not depends on the distance away from the center of the earth (unlike weight which is a vector) thus making it constant all through any location.

C) mass of watermelon is 5.91kg, g=9.8m/s² weight of watermelon on jupiter is given below as

W = mg

W = 5.91 x 9.8

= 10.697N.

What is the formula for volume using density and mass
lawyer [7]

The definition of density is

                                                       Density                  = (mass) / (volume)

Multiply each side by 'volume' :    (density) x (volume) = (mass)

Divide each side by 'density' :                         Volume = (mass) / (density)

A wheel accelerates from rest to 34.7 rad/s at a rate of 47.0 rad/s^2. Through what angle (in radians) did the wheel turn while
dem82 [27]

12.8 rad

Explanation:

The angular displacement \theta through which the wheel turned can be determined from the equation below:

\omega^2 = \omega_0^2 + 2\alpha\theta (1)

where

\omega_0 = 0

\omega = 34.7\:\text{rad/s}

\alpha = 47.0\:\text{rad/s}^2

Using these values, we can solve for \theta from Eqn(1) as follows:

2\alpha\theta = \omega^2 - \omega_0^2

or

\theta = \dfrac{\omega^2 - \omega_0^2}{2\alpha}

\:\:\:\:= \dfrac{(34.7\:\text{rad/s})^2 - 0}{2(47.0\:\text{rad/s}^2)}

\:\:\:\:= 12.8\:\text{rad}

1. A rocket is fired vertically from the launch pad with a
zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

Max height= 36000 meters

Total Time = 120 seconds

Explanation:

0 = U - at

U = at

U= 20*60

U= 1200 m/s

MAX altitude would be

(U²Sin²tita)/2g

Max height= 1200² *( SIN90)²/(2*20)

Time of FLIGHT

2 * 1200/20

2400/20

120 sec onds

A mule pulls a cart of milk 10 meters with a force of 50 Newton's.Calculate the work done by a mule
san4es73 [151]

Work = Force x Distance

Assuming that this work is being done parallel to the displacement that is, but under that assumption:

W = (50)(10)

W = 500 J
