Suppose you are talking by interplanetary telephone to your friend, who lives on the Moon. He tells you that he has just won a n

ewton of gold in a contest. Excitedly, you tell him that you entered the Earth version of the same contest and also won a newton of gold! Who is richer?

Answer:

The friend on moon will be richer.

Explanation:

We must calculate the mass of gold won by each person, to tell who is richer. For that purpose we will use the following formula:

W = mg

m = W/g

where,

m = mass of gold

W = weight of gold

g = acceleration due to gravity on that planet

<u>FOR FRIEND ON MOON</u>:

W = 1 N

g = 1.625 m/s²

Therefore,

m = (1 N)/(1.625 m/s²)

m(moon) = 0.6 kg

<u>FOR ME ON EARTH</u>:

W = 1 N

g = 9.8 m/s²

Therefore,

m = (1 N)/(9.8 m/s²)

m(earth) = 0.1 kg

Since, the mass of gold on moon is greater than the mass of moon on earth.

<u>Therefore, the friend on moon will be richer.</u>

At which point is the water table closest to the surface? Explain.
dangina [55]

The point is the water table closest to the surface in valleys.

In areas of topographic relief, the water table generally follows the surface but tends to approach it in valleys and intersect the surface with streams and lakes. Closest to the surface is the vented zone where the interstices between the soil are filled with both air and water. Below this layer is a saturation zone where the gaps are filled with water.

The water table is the subsurface boundary between the soil surface and the area where groundwater saturates the space between sediment and rock fissures. At this boundary, water pressure equals atmospheric pressure. The top surface of the groundwater is the groundwater table. Beneath this surface, all pore spaces and cracks in sediments and rocks are completely filled and saturated with water. Groundwater occurs in these saturated layers known as saturation zones or water vapor zones.

A 200 g block is pressed against a spring of force constant 1.40 kN/m until the block compresses the spring 10.0 cm. The spring
tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

This problem bothers on the energy stored in a spring in relation to conservation of energy

Given data

Mass of block m =200g

To kg= 200/1000= 0.2kg

Spring constant k = 1.4kN/m

=1400N/m

Compression x= 10cm

In meter x=10/100 = 0.1m

Using energy considerations or energy conservation principles

The potential energy stored in the spring equals the kinetic energy with which the block move away from the spring

Potential Energy stored in spring

P.E=1/2kx^2

Kinetic energy of the block

K.E =1/mv^2

Where v = velocity of the block

K.E=P.E (energy consideration)

1/2kx^2=1/mv^2

Kx^2= mv^2

Solving for v we have

v^2= (kx^2)/m

v^2= (1400*0.1^2)/0.2

v^2= (14)/0.2

v^2= 70

v= √70

v= 8.36m/s

a. Distance moved if the ramp exerts no force on the block

Is

S= v^2/2gsinθ

Assuming g= 9. 81m/s^2

S= (8.36)^2/2*9.81*sin60

S= 69.88/19.62*0.866

S= 69.88/16.99

S= 4.11m

We know, F = k * q₁ * q₂ / r²

Substitute the known values, 
F = 9 * 10⁹ * 5 * 7 / (1.2)²

F = 315 * 10⁹ / 1.44

F = 218.75 * 10⁹ N

F = 2.1875 * 10¹¹ N   [ Final Answer ]

dimaraw [331]

Answer:

According to the answer, the speed of light is being achieved.

Explanation:

The velocity of the light is:

C=\frac{E}{P}

Where E = energy = 3.03x10⁻¹⁹J

P = momentum = 1.01x10⁻²⁷kgm/s

Replacing:

C=\frac{3.03x10^{-19} }{1.01x10^{-27} } =3x10^{8} m/s
