Answer:

Weight is what you get when a certain amount of gravity is acting on that mass, and something, like the surface of a planet, is resisting that action. In space, when falling freely, there's nothing resisting the pull of gravity so weight disappears. Mass however stays.

An insulating cup contains 200 grams of water at 25 ∘C. Some ice cubes at 0 ∘C is placed in the water. The system comes to equil

Nataly [62]

Answer:

The amount of ice added in gram is 32.77g

Explanation:

This problem bothers on the heat capacity of materials

Given data

Mass of water Mw= 200g

Temperature of water θw= 25°c

Temperature of ice θice= 0°c

Equilibrium Temperature θe= 12°c

Mass of ice Mi=???

The specific heat of ice Ci= 2090 J/(kg ∘C)

specific heat of water Cw = 4186 J/(kg ∘C)

latent heat of the ice to water transition Li= 3.33 x10^5 J/kg

heat heat loss by water = heat gained by ice

N/B let us understand something, heat gained by ice is in two phases

Heat require to melt ice at 0°C to water at 0°C

And the heat required to take water from 0°C to equilibrium temperature

Hence

MwCwΔθ=MiLi +MiCiΔθ

Substituting our data we have

200*4186*(25-12)=Mi*3.3x10^5+

Mi*2090(12-0)

837200*13=Mi*3.3x10^5+Mi*2090

10883600=332090Mi

Mi=10883600/332090

Mi= 32.77g

What are the effects of gravity on earth?

Sliva [168]

Answer:

Without it, we could not survive on Earth. Earth orbits the sun due to the gravity of the sun, which maintains us at a convenient distance from it to enjoy the sun's warmth and light. It keeps the air we need to breathe and our atmosphere in place. Our planet is held together by gravity.

A meter stick is suspended vertically at a pivot point 22 cm from the top end. It is rotated on the pivot until it is horizontal

suter [353]

Answer:

5.82812 rad/s

Explanation:

L = Length of meter stick = 1 m = 100 cm

$m_c$ = The center of mass of the stick = $\frac{L}{2}-0.22=0.5-0.22=0.28\ m$

$\omega$ = Angular velocity

Moment of inertia of the system is given by

$I=I_c+mr^2\\\Rightarrow I=\frac{mL^2}{12}+mr^2\\\Rightarrow I=\frac{m1^2}{12}+m0.28^2\\\Rightarrow I=m(\frac{1}{12}+0.0784)$

As the energy in the system is conserved

$mgh=I\frac{\omega^2}{2}\\\Rightarrow mgh=m(\frac{1}{12}+0.0784)\frac{\omega^2}{2}\\\Rightarrow gh=(\frac{1}{12}+0.0784)\frac{\omega^2}{2}\\\Rightarrow \omega=\sqrt{\frac{2gh}{\frac{1}{12}+0.0784}}\\\Rightarrow \omega=\sqrt{\frac{2\times 9.81\times 0.28}{\frac{1}{12}+0.0784}}\\\Rightarrow \omega=5.82812\ rad/s$

The maximum angular velocity is 5.82812 rad/s
