Answer:

F = 274.68[N]

Explanation:

The gravitational force is equal to the weight of a body, or this case that of a person. Weight can be calculated by means of the product of mass by gravitational acceleration. In this way we have the following equation:

F=m*g

where:

F = force or weight [N]

m = mass = 28 [kg]

g = gravity acceleration = 9.81 [m/s²]

Now replacing:

F=28*9.81\\F=274.68[N]

The mass of an object on earth is 20 kg what will be the mass of that object on moon? And why? ​
Alla [95]

Answer:

20kg

Explanation:

Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object. The mass of an object, the amount of matter inside it does not change based on location. E.g. Objects do not lose matter when they travel to the moon.

Weight, on the other hand is the downward force you exert on the ground. Weight is calculated by multiplying the mass by the gravitational field strength and changes in different places with different gravitational strength. E.g. The moon's gravitational strength is 1/5 of Earth's so the mass of the object would stay the same but the weight would be only 20% of the weight is had on earth.

Hope this helped!

A ball thrown vertically upward is caught by the thrower after 2.93 s. Find the initial velocity of the ball. The acceleration o
almond37 [142]

Answer:

The initial velocity of the ball is 28.714 m/s

Explanation:

Given;

time of flight of the ball, t = 2.93 s

acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s²

initial velocity of the ball, u = ?

The initial velocity of the ball is given by;

v = u + (-g)t

where;

v is the final speed of the ball at the given time, = 0

g is negative because of upward motion

0 = u -gt

u = gt

u = (9.8 x 2.93)

u = 28.714 m/s

Therefore, the initial velocity of the ball is 28.714 m/s

A person holding a lunch bag is moving upward in a hot air balloon at a constant speed of 7.3 m/s . When the balloon is 24 m abo
Kitty [74]

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial speed of the bag, u = 7.3 m/s

Height above ground, s = 24 m

We need to find the speed of the bag just before it reaches the ground. It can be calculated using third equation of motion as :

v^2=u^2+2as

v^2=(7.3)^2+2\times 9.8\times 24  

v=\sqrt{523.69}

v = 22.88 m/s

So, the speed of the bag just before it reaches the ground is 22.38 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.

AnnZ [28]
Maybe the picture helps. The blue block represents the cart with a mass of 3 kg. The person(black block) is pulling the cart to the right with a force F so that the acceleration a is 2 m/s². According to Newton's 2nd law: F = m*a.
