Weight of the women in pounds = 125 lb
1 kg is heavier than 1 pound and 1 Kilogram is same as 2.20462 pounds.
So 125 lb gives 125 / 2.20462 kilo grams = 56.699 kg and the value is less than 125.

The first thing you should know to solve this problem is the conversion of pounds to kilograms:
1lb = 0.45 Kg
We can solve this problem by a simple rule of three
1lb ---> 0.45Kg
125lb ---> x
Clearing x we have:
x = ((125) / (1)) * (0.45) = 56.25 Kg.
Answer
her mass expressed in kilograms is 56.25 Kg.

(20 points) You are at the center of a boat and have been rowing the boat for a long time. You weigh only 80 kg and your 120 kg

valina [46]

Answer:

Explanation:

From the given information:

Let the first weight be $m_ 1$ = 80 kg

The weight of the buddy be $m_2$ = 120 kg

The weight of Bubba be $m_3$ = 60 kg

Also, since you and Budda are a distance of 4m to each other, then the length to which both meet buddy will be:

$x_1 = x_3 = \dfrac{4}{2} \\ \\ = 2$

The length of the boat be $x_2$ = 4 m

∴

We can find the center of mass of the system by using the formula:

$X_{CM} = \dfrac{m_1x_1+m_2x_2+m_3x_3}{m_1+m_2+m_3} \\ \\ X_{CM} = \dfrac{(80 \times 2)+(120\times4)+(60\times2)}{80+120+60} \\ \\ X_{CM} = \dfrac{160+480+120}{260} \\ \\ \mathbf{X_{CM} = 2.923}$

Henry, whose mass is 95 kg, stands on a bathroom scale in an elevator. The scale reads 830 N for the first 3.8 s after the eleva

Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

v= 4.0 m/s

Explanation:

When standing on the bathroom scale within the moving elevator, there are two forces acting on Henry's mass: Normal force and gravity.
Gravity is always downward, and normal force is perpendicular to the surface on which the mass is located (the bathroom scale), in upward direction.
Normal force, can adopt any value needed to match the acceleration of the mass, according to Newton's 2nd Law.
Gravity (which we call weight near the Earth's surface) can be calculated as follows:

$F_{g} = m*g = 95 kg * 9.8 m/s2 = 930 N (1)$

According to Newton's 2nd Law, it must be met the following condition:

$F_{net} = F_{g} -F_{n} = m*a\\ F_{net} = 930 N - 830 N = 100 N = 95 Kg * a$

As the gravity is larger than normal force, this means that the acceleration is downward, so, we choose this direction as the positive.

Solving for a, we get:

$a =\frac{F_{net} }{m} =\frac{100 N}{95 kg} = 1.05 m/s2$

We can find the speed after the first 3.8 s (assuming a is constant), applying the definition of acceleration as the rate of change of velocity:

$v_{f} = a* t = 1.05 m/s * 3.8 m/s = 4.0 m/s$

Now, if during the next 3.8 s, normal force is 930 N (same as the weight), this means that both forces are equal each other, so net force is 0.
According to Newton's 2nd Law, if net force is 0, the object is either or at rest, or moving at a constant speed.
As the elevator was moving, the only choice is that it is moving at a constant speed, the same that it had when the scale was read for the first time, i.e., 4 m/s downward.
