If an exit sign is hanging from the ceiling by three chains each of which has a tension of 15N what is the weight of the sign

Physics

3 0
The weight is 45 N, because the three chains hold the sign, and each contributes 15 N.

Notice that the mass would be the weight/acceleration of gravity, m = 45/9.8 kg. But they ask the weight (force, so Newtons)

1. a=(v-v0)/t
a=14 m/s / 2s
a=7 m/s^2
2. <span>a=(v-v0)/t
</span>a=(30 m/s - 0 m/s) / 12 s
a=2.5 m/s^2
3. <span>a=(v-v0)/t
a=(37 m/s - 22 m/s) / 2 s
a= 7.5 m/s^2
4. </span><span>a=(v-v0)/t
a=(12 km/s - 0 km/s)/8 s

In a 35 mm single lens reflex camera (SLR) the distance from the lens to the film is varied in order to focus on objects at vary
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

range of movement is 1.49 mm

Explanation:

given data

focal length = 45 mm

distance = 1.4 m

distance from the lens = 35 mm

distance from infinity down = 1.4 m =

to find out

range of movement

solution

we will apply here lens equation that is

1/f = 1/p + 1/q

here f = 45 and p =  infinity to 1400 mm

we find here image distance that is q

1/45 = 0 + 1/q             ......1

q = 45 mm

and

1/45 = 1/1400 + 1/q     ......2

q = 46.49

so range of movement

that is 46.49 - 45

range of movement is 1.49 mm

An astronaut is in equilibrium when he is positioned 140 km from the center of asteroid X and 481 km from the center of asteroid
mariarad [96]

Explanation:

It is given that, An astronaut is in equilibrium when he is positioned 140 km from the center of asteroid X and 481 km from the center of asteroid Y, along the straight line joining the centers of the asteroids. We need to find the ratio of their masses.

As they are in equilibrium, the force of gravity due to each other is same. So,

\dfrac{Gm_xM}{r^2}=\dfrac{Gm_yM}{r^2}\\\\\dfrac{m_x}{r_x^2}=\dfrac{m_y}{r_y^2}\\\\\dfrac{m_x}{r_x^2}=\dfrac{m_y}{r_y^2}\\\\\dfrac{m_x}{m_y}=(\dfrac{r_x^2}{r_y^2})\\\\\dfrac{m_x}{m_y}=(\dfrac{140^2}{481^2})\\\\\dfrac{m_x}{m_y}=0.0847

So, the ratio of masses X/Y is 0.0847

​How are particles in motion and temperature related?
Artemon [7]
1) How are particles in motion and temperature related?

Temperature is the measure of heat. The kinetic energy of particles in motion is determined by the temperature.  The higher the temperature, the higher the kinetic energy of the particles (basically, the hotter it is the faster the particles move).

2) How does a thermometer work?

A thermometer measures the average kinetic energy of the particles around the thermometer.  As seen in 1), the kinetic energy defines the temperature, so measuring the energy of the particles can show you the temperature of the object.

3) What are temperature scales, list them and give examples.

Temperature scales are pretty much systems with which we compare different temperatures.  The three widely used temperature scales today are Fahrenheit, Celsius, and Kelvin. All three are used in different countries and mainly for different purposes. Fahrenheit is used only in the United States and a few other countries around the world, while Celsius is excepted by nearly the entire rest of the world. Kelvin is used primarily in the scientific setting.

4) Define volume.

Volume is pretty much the amount of three-dimensional space an object or substance takes up.  For example, a liter is a unit of measurement of volume.  A two-liter bottle of soda means it contains the amount of soda that fills up 2-liters worth of three-dimensional space.

I hope this helped.
