Suppose that the hatch on the side of a Mars lander is built and tested on Earth so that the internal pressure just balances the

external pressure. The hatch is a disk 50.0 cm in diameter. When the lander goes to Mars, where the external pressure is 650 N/m^2, what will be the net force (in newtowns and pounds) on the hatch, assuming that the internal pressure is the same in both cases? Will it be an inward or outward force? Answer= 19.8 kN, 4440 lb. Outward force. Please explain how to get these answers. Equation in textbook : Fnet=(P2-P1)A

Answer:

F=19.8kN=4442lb

Explanation:

On Earth the atmospheric presure is P_E=101325 N/m^2. This will be the pressure inside the lander. Outside, the pressure on Mars will be P_M=650 N/m^2. This means that the net force will be outward (since inside the pressure is higher) and, since the area of the hatch is A=\pi r^2, of value:

F=(P_E-P_M)\pi r^2=(101325N/m^2-650N/m^2)\pi (\frac{0.5m}{2})^2=19768N=19.8kN

Since 1lb in weight  is equal to 4.45N, we can write:

F=19768N=19768N\frac{1lb}{4.45N}=4442lb

When you rub a plastic rod with fur, the plastic rod becomes negatively charged and the fur becomes positively charged. As a con
Yuri [45]

Answer: C. the rod gains mass and the fur loses mass.

Explanation:Atomic particles have mass. The electron has a mass that is approximately 1/1836 that of the proton and with exchange exchange of charge this is also factored in. The movement of effect described above is known as the triboelectic charging process—charging by friction—which results in a transfer of electrons between the two objects when they are rubbed together. Plastic having a much greater affinity for electrons than animal fur pulls electrons from the atoms of fur, leaving both objects with an imbalance of charge. The plastic rod would have an excess of electrons and the fur has a shortage of electrons. Having an excess of electrons, the plastic is charged negatively and has more mass. In the same vein, the shortage of electrons on the fur leaves it with a positive charge and consequently with lesser mass.

Many firms develop a formal marketing plan to answer the question: who is your target market and how do you plan to reach them. A marketing plan is a comprehensive document which sets out an organization's overall marketing strategy. A marketing plan will include digital media, print media as well as product development strategies. The marketing plan takes the organization's mission statement and turns it into a practical plan. Its goal is to practically implement the reason for the organization's existance.
