Differentiate between mass and weight

Physics
1 answer:
Otrada [13]3 years ago

Answer:

The difference between mass and weight is that mass is the amount of matter in a material, while weight is a measure of how the force of gravity acts upon that mass.

A capacitor with a very large capacitance is in series with a capacitor that has a very small capacitance. what can we say about
Misha Larkins [42]
<span>A capacitor with a very large capacitance is in series with a capacitor
that has a very small capacitance.

The capacitance of the series combination is slightly smaller than the
capacitance of the small capacitor. (choice-C)

The capacitance of a series combination is

             1 / (1/A + 1/B + 1/C + 1/D + .....) .

If you wisk, fold, knead, and mash that expression for a while,
you find that for only two capacitors in series, (or 2 resistors or
two inductors in parallel), the combination is   

             (product of the 2 individuals) / (sum of the individuals)  .

In this problem, we have a humongous one and a tiny one.
Let's call them  1000  and  1 .
Then the series combination is

           (1000 x 1) / (1000 + 1)

        =       (1000) / (1001)

        =         0.999 000 999 . . . 

which is smaller than the smaller individual.

It'll always be that way.   </span>

What is the average de Broglie wavelength of oxygen molecules in air at a temperature of 27°C? Use the results of the kinetic th
asambeis [7]

Answer:

\lambda = 2.57 \times 10^{-11} m

Explanation:

Average velocity of oxygen molecule at given temperature is

v_{rms} = \sqrt{\frac{3RT}{M}}

now we have

M = 32 g/mol = 0.032 kg/mol

T = 27 degree C = 300 K

now we have

v_{rms} = \sqrt{\frac{3(8.31)(300)}{0.032}

v_{rms} = 483.4 m/s

now for de Broglie wavelength we know that

\lambda = \frac{h}{mv}

\lambda = \frac{6.6 \times 10^{-34}}{(5.31\times 10^{-26})(483.4)}

\lambda = 2.57 \times 10^{-11} m

A potter’s wheel moves from rest to an angular speed of 0.50 rev/s in 28.9 s. Assuming constant angular acceleration, what is it
Fudgin [204]

Answer:

0.108 rad/s².

Explanation:

Given that

Initial angular velocity ,ωi = 0 rad/s

Final angular velocity ωf= 0.5 rev/s

We know that

1 rev/s = 6.28 rad/s

ωf= 3.14 rad/s

t= 28.9 s

We know that (if acceleration is constant)

ωf=ωi + α t

α=Angular acceleration

3.14 = 0 + α x 28.9

\alpha=\dfrac{3.14}{28.9}\ rad/s^2\\\alpha=0.108\ rad/s^2

Therefore the acceleration will be 0.108 rad/s².

Therefore the answer will be 0.108 rad/s².

A 200g piece of iron is heated at 100C. It is than dropped into water to bring its temperature down to 22C. What is the amount o
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

6926.4J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of iron  = 200g

Initial temperature  = 100°C

Final temperature  = 22°C

Unknown:

Amount of heat transferred to the water  = ?

Solution:

The quantity of heat transferred to the water is a function of mass and temperature of the iron;

 H  = m c Ф

m is the mass of the iron

Ф is the change in temperature

C is the specific heat capacity of iron = 0.444 J/g°C

Now;

 insert the parameters and solve;

      H  = 200 x 0.444 x (100-22)

      H = 6926.4J
