If a zebra weighs 390N what is its mass

Physics
1 answer:
stich3 [128]3 years ago
7 0
W=mg
m = W/g = 390N/ 9.8 m/s^2 = 39.8 kg

some people round g to 10 m/s^2 and this will give answer of 39 kg, which is wrong

Why do we need to square the period for pendulum experiment? How it is related to obtaining gram ?
andreev551 [17]

Answer:

The period of a pendulum does not depend on the mass of the ball, but only on the length of the string. Two pendula with different masses but the same length will have the same period. Two pendula with different lengths will different periods; the pendulum with the longer string will have the longer period.

Alice drops a rock to a well. She hears the splash of the rock 4.1s later. The speed of sound is 340m/s. How deep is the well
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

697 m

Explanation:

From the question above,

Note: Alice hears the splash of the rock in the well through the help of echo.

Applying,

v = 2x/t........................ Equation 1

Where v = speed of sound, x = depth of the well, t = time.

make x the subject of the formula in equation 1

x = vt/2................... Equation 2.

Given: v = 340 m/s, t = 4.1 s

Substitute these values into equation 2

x = 340(4.1)/2

x = 697 m.

Say you want to make a sling by swinging a mass M of 2.3 kg in a horizontal circle of radius 0.034 m, using a string of length 0
ycow [4]

Answer:

T = 764.41 N

Explanation:

In this case the tension of the string is determined by the centripetal force. The formula to calculate the centripetal force is given by:

F_c=m\frac{v^2}{r}  (1)

m: mass object = 2.3 kg

r: radius of the circular orbit = 0.034 m

v: tangential speed of the object

However, it is necessary to calculate the velocity v first. To find v you use the formula for the kinetic energy:

K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

You have the value of the kinetic energy (13.0 J), then, you replace the values of K and m, and solve for v^2:

v^2=\frac{2K}{m}=\frac{2(13.0J)}{2.3kg}=11.3\frac{m^2}{s^2}

you replace this value of v in the equation (1). Also, you replace the values of r and m:

F_c=(2.3kg)(\frac{11.3m^2/s^2}{0.034})=764.41N

hence, the tension in the string must be T =  Fc = 764.41 N

Adding heat energy to liquid H2O (water) causes ______________. a Accumulation b Evaporation c Condensation d Precipitation
Alexxandr [17]
B Evaporation. (Kinda. There must be enough heat added to change phase before evaporation occurs, but the other answers clearly wrong.)

The mass of Object 2 is double the mass of Object 5. The mass of Object 4 is half of the mass of Object 5 and the mass of Object
SVETLANKA909090 [29]
This is a great problem if you like getting tied up in knots
and making smoke come out of your brain.

I found that it makes the problem a lot easier if I give the objects some
numbers. I'm going to say that the mass of Object 5 is 20 clods.

Let the mass of Mass of Object 5 be 20 clods .

Then . . .

-- The mass of Object 2 is double the mass of Object 5 = 40 clods.

-- The mass of Object 4 is half of the mass of Object 5 = 10 clods.
and
-- the mass of Object 3 is half of the mass of Object 4 = 5 clods.

So now, here are the masses:

Object #1 . . . . . unknown
Object #2 . . . . . 40 clods
Object #3 . . . . . 5 clods
Object #4 . . . . . 10 clods
Object #5 . . . . . 20 clods .

Now let's check out the statements, and see how they stack up:

Choice-A:
Object 3 and Object 5 exert the same gravitational force on Object 1.
Can't be.
Objects #3 and #5 have different masses, so they can't both
exert the same force on the same mass.

Choice-B.
Object 2 and Object 4 exert the same gravitational force on Object 1.
Can't be.
Objects #2 and #4 have different masses, so they can't both
exert the same force on the same mass.

Choice-C.
The gravitational force between Object 1 and Object 2 is greater than
the gravitational force between Object 1 and Object 4.
Yes ! Yay !
Object-2 has more mass than Object-4 has, so it must exert more force on
ANYTHING than Object-4 does, (as long as the distances are the same).

Choice-D.
The gravitational force between Object 1 and Object 3 is greater than the gravitational force between Object 1 and Object 5.
Can't be.
Object-3 has less mass than Object-5 has, so it must exert less force on
ANYTHING than Object-4 does, (as long as the distances are the same).

Conclusion:
If the DISTANCE is the same for all the tests, then Choice-C is
the only one that can be true.
