weight less on moon than on earth.

high on lift off - G force

low in orbit.

zero at a point between earth and moon

Answer:

Due to gravitational force

We know that,

weight (W) = m. g Newtons

Where m = mass , in Kg

g = gravitational force (m/s²)

= 9.8 m/s (it is constant on earth)

So, from equation we knew that Weight is proportional to the gravitational force assuming fixed mass.

On the moon the gravitational force (g) is very less compared to the earth gravitational force, i.e., 1.62 m/s²

Therefore from equation of weight W = m. g is very less by considering the gravitational force on moon.

So, obviously weight changes on moon due to gravitational pull

A black, totally absorbing piece of cardboard of area a = 2.1 cm2 intercepts light with an intensity of 8.8 w/m2 from a camera s

PolarNik [594]

Answer:

The value of radiation pressure is $2.933 \times 10^{-8}$ Pa

Explanation:

Given:

Intensity $I = 8.8$ $\frac{W}{m^{2} }$

Area of piece $A = 2.1 \times 10^{-4}$ $m^{2}$

From the formula of radiation pressure in terms of intensity,

$P = \frac{I}{c}$

Where $P =$ radiation pressure, $c =$ speed of light

We know value of speed of light,

$c = 3 \times 10^{8}$ $\frac{m}{s}$

Put all values in above equation,

$P = \frac{8.8}{3 \times 10^{8} }$

$P = 2.933 \times 10^{-8}$ Pa

Therefore, the value of radiation pressure is $2.933 \times 10^{-8}$ Pa

80N force ;

lutik1710 [3]

The power of the engine is 320 W.

Explanation:

Power may be defined as the rate of doing work (or) work done per unit time. One unit of energy is used to do the one unit of work.

Power = Work done / Time taken

Given, Force = 80 N, height = 5 m , final velocity = 4 m/s

To calculate the power, we must know the time taken.

To find the time, use the distance and speed formula which is given by

Time = Distance / speed

Here distance = 5 m and speed = 4 m/s

Time = 5 / 4 = 1.25 s.

Now, Power = work done / time

= (F * d) / t = (80 * 5) / 1.25

Power = 320 W.

The standard unit of power is watt (W) which is joule per second.

What force could be applied to a box to make the net force in the horizontal direction of zero

Kazeer [188]

If there is no friction, the force that moves the box forward horizontally must be matched by the same force.

If there is friction, then the force moving it forward = frictional force + the additional force you need to add.
