The mass of Mars is smaller than that the mass of Earth, therefore the acceleration of gravity on Mars is much less than that the acceleration of gravity of the Earth.

 The weight of an object is directly proportional to the magnitude of the gravitational acceleration of the planet where it is.

 In this case, the gravitational acceleration in Mars is 3.711 m/s² and that of the planet Earth is 9.807 m/s².

 The acceleration of gravity on Earth is 2.63 times greater than that the acceleration of gravity on Mars. This explains that the same object weighs 263% more on earth

SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

a) always. b) electric field lines are defined by the path positive test charges travel.

Explanation:

By convention, field lines always follow the direction that it would take a positive test charge  (small enough so it can´t disrupt the field created by a charge distribution), under the influence of an electric field, at the same point where the test charge is located.

So any positive charge, subject to an electric field influence, moves along the field line that passes through its current position, in the same way that a positive test charge would.

We could say also that the electric force on a positively charged particle is in the same direction as the electric field that produces that force (due to some charge distribution) , which is true, but it doesn´t explain why.

A motorcycle accelerates uniformly from rest and reaches a linear speed of 24.8 m/s in a time of 9.87 s. The radius of each tire
Vinvika [58]

Answer:

8.756 rad/s²

Explanation:

Given that:

A motorcycle accelerates uniformly from rest, then initial velocity v_i = 0 m/s

It final velocity v_f = 24.8 m/s

time (t) = 9.87 s

radius (r) of each tire  = 0.287 m

Firstly; the linear acceleration of the motor cycle  is determined as follows:

a_T =(V_f - v_i)/t

=(24.8-0)/9.87

=2.513 m/s²

Then;  the magnitude of angular acceleration

α =a_T /r

=2.513/0.287

=8.756 rad/s²

Give a simple explanation why the pressure changes by this factor.Word Bank:1. two2.greater3.smaller4.four5.eightDoubling the sp
diamong [38]

Answer

speed of the molecules

s₁ = v t

when velocity is doubled

s₂ = (2 v)t

   = 2 s₁

they will hit the wall of container two times as often.

the momentum of molecule

p₁ = mvr

p₂ = m(2v)r = 2(mvr)

    = 2 p₁

the momentum change is two times as great.

force is change in momentum

Δp = F(Δt)

mv-(-mv) = 2 mv

F = \dfrac{2 mv}{\Delta t}

F α v

therefore average force impart to the wall on each collision is two times

p = \dfrac{F_{total}}{A}

p = \dfrac{Nmv^2}{3LA}

p α v²

here the velocity is doubled it means pressure becomes four times.
