Answer:

98 kg

Mass is given as 10 kg. Therefore, Weight = 10 kg * 9.8 m/s^2. Weight = 98 kg.m/s^2. = 98 Newtons.

The weight in newtons of a 10 kg mass on the earth's surface is 98 N.

Explanation:

Every object on the Earth experiences an acceleration of $9.8 m/s^2$ due to gravity. From the given,

Mass of the object = 10 kg

To calculate the weight of the object we have to multiply the given mass of the object by the acceleration due to gravity.

i.e. $Weight= Mass\times Acceleration \ due \ to \ gravity$

Acceleration due to gravity = $9.8 m/s^2$

On substituting the values,

Weight = $10 kg\times 9.8 m/s^2$

$(1 N = 1 kg. m/s^2)$

$\bold{\Rightarrow 98 \ kg.m/s^2\Rightarrow 98 N}$

Weight = 98 N

Jason launches a model rocket with a mass of 2.0 kg from his spring-powered rocket launcher with a spring constant of 800 N/m. H

Arada [10]

Answer:

121 Joules

6.16717 m

Explanation:

m = Mass of the rocket = 2 kg

k = Spring constant = 800 N/m

x = Compression of spring = 0.55 m

Here, the kinetic energy of the spring and rocket will balance each other

$\frac{1}{2}mu^2=\frac{1}{2}kx^2\\\Rightarrow u=\sqrt{\frac{kx^2}{m}}\\\Rightarrow u=\sqrt{\frac{800\times 0.55^2}{2}}\\\Rightarrow u=11\ m/s$

The initial velocity of the rocket is 11 m/s = u.

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s² = g

$v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2a}\\\Rightarrow s=\frac{0^2-11^2}{2\times -9.81}\\\Rightarrow s=6.16717\ m$

The maximum height of the rocket will be 6.16717 m

Potential energy is given by

$P=mgh\\\Rightarrow P=2\times 9.81\times \frac{0^2-11^2}{2\times -9.81}\\\Rightarrow P=121\ J$

The potential energy of the rocket at the maximum height will be 121 Joules

What happens when the density of a medium increases

Anvisha [2.4K]

We all know that the sound travels faster through solids and then liquids and then through gases.
As far as i know solids are the medium through which the sound travels fast.

But in some websites I saw that as the density increases , the velocity of the sound decreases.If this statement is correct , how come the sound travels fastest through solids (since they have higher density)

From this it is clear that not only sound as compression wave But also in the form of Shear wave travels in Solids

This makes it easier for sound to travel with higher speed in solids

The downsprue leading into the runner of a certain mold has a length of 175 mm. The cross-sectional area at the base of the spru

adoni [48]

Answer:

(a) Velocity at bottom is 1.85 m/s

(b) Volume flow rate is 7.4 x 10⁻⁴ m³/s.

Explanation:

(a)

Applying Bernoulli's Equation on both ends of the down sprue, with the assumptions that every point is at atmospheric pressure and the liquid metal at the pouring basin is at zero velocity. The equation then becomes:

V = √2gh

where,

V = velocity at bottom of down sprue

h = height of down sprue = 175 mm = 0.175 m

V = √2(9.8 m/s²)(0.175 m)

V = 1.85 m/s

(b)

The volume flow rate is given as:

Volume Flow Rate = (V)(A)

where,

V = velocity at bottom = 1.85 m/s

A = Area of bottom = 400 mm² = 0.0004 m²

Therefore,

Volume Flow Rate = (1.85 m/s)(0.0004 m²)

Volume Flow Rate = 7.4 x 10⁻⁴ m³/s = 740 cm³/s

(c)

The time required to fill the cavity is given as:

Volume Flow Rate = V/t

where,

V = Volume of mold Cavity = 0.001 m³

t = time required to fill the cavity = ?

Therefore,

t = V/Volume Flow Rate

t = 0.001 m³/7.4 x 10⁻⁴ m³/s

t = 1.35 s

Mercury was named after the roman god of speed why is it an appropriate name for the planet

elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Because it's the planet in our solar system with the shortest,
fastest orbit around the sun ... only 88 Earth days.

The people who named it didn't know that ... they still thought that
the sun and all the planets revolve around the Earth. But they did
see it zip from one side of the sun to the other, faster than any other
planet ... the result of having the shortest, fastest orbit of any planet.
