Answer:

a, 22 kg and 22 kg

b, 215.8 N and 440 N

Explanation:

a

The mass of the ball remains constant and unchanged irrespective of where it has been to, need to go or is going. So, basically the mass of the ball on earth is as the same mass of the ball on the said planet, 22 kg

b

The weight of any object factors in the acceleration due to gravity of the said area(or planet).

W = mg, with m being the mass and g being the acceleration due to gravity.

On earth

W = 22 * 9.81 = 215.8 N

On the said planet,

W = 22 * 20 = 440 N

Do therefore, the weight is 215.8 N on earth and 440 N on the planet

weqwewe [10]
Interval training is simply alternating short bursts (about 30 seconds) of intense activity with longer intervals (about 1 to 2 minutes) of less intense activity. For instance, if your exercise is walking and you're in good shape, you might add short bursts of jogging into your regular brisk walks.

Given three different locations on Earth's surface, where will the weight of a person be greatest?
Feliz [49]

Answer:

Explanation:

In order to answer this question, we simply have to refer to the laws of the equations of gravitational mechanics.

The equation given by Newton tells us that  

F = \frac{Gm_{1} m_{2}  }{r^{2} }

In the case where we compare a specific place where the Force of Gravity is greater or lesser, we focus on the term assigned to the Planet's Radius.

In the case of G, m_{1} ,m_{2}, we understand that they are constant.

We can easily notice that the more the Radius (Height seen from a viewer on the ground), the lower the force will be.

In other words, the smaller the radius in which the measurement is made with respect to the center of the earth, the greater the gravitational force.

In that order of ideas the smallest radio has South Pole, which is about 6356 km from the center of the Earth on the Equator line

Explain why frog will not look green under the red light?
IrinaVladis [17]
A frog can be many different colours. It appears green under normal 'white' light because it absorbs all the other colours in the light's spectrum apart from green. It reflects the green light back and that is picked up by your eye.

If the light is red, there is no green in the spectrum of the light, only red. So, the red light will be absorbed and there is no green to be reflected back for you to see. Therefore, the frog will not look green.
