Answer:
50 lb
Explanation:
Given,
The weight of astronaut's life support backpack on Earth (w) = 300 lb
Acceleration due to gravity on Earth (g) = 9.8 m/s²
Acceleration due to gravity on Moon = g'
We know that weight of an object on Earth is,
Similarly, weight on Moon will be
Thus the astronaut's life support backpack will weigh 50 lb on Moon.
Answer:
The specific heat capacity of the zinc metal measured in this experiment is 0.427 J/g.°C
Explanation:
From the experimental data, the water loses heat because its initial temperature is greater than the final temperature of the mixture. On the other hand, the zinc metal gains heat because its initial temperature is less than the final temperature of the mixture
Heat loss by water = Heat gain by zinc metal
m1C1(T1 - T3) = m2C2(T3 - T2)
m1 is mass of water = 55.4 g
C1 is specific heat capacity of water = 4.2 J/g.°C
m2 is mass of zinc metal = 23.4 g
C2 is specific heat capacity of zinc metal
T1 is the initial temperature of water = 99.61 °C
T2 is the initial temperature of zinc metal = 21.6 °C
T3 is the final temperature of the mixture = 96.4 °C
55.4×4.2(99.61 - 96.4) = 23.4×C2(96.4 - 21.6)
746.9028 = 1750.32C2
C2 = 746.9028/1750.32 = 0.427 J/g.°C
Answer:
Explanation:
The 2 equations we need here are, first:
and then once we solve for the acceleration here:
Δx
Solving for acceleration:
and now we will use that in the other equation:
Δx and
36 = 16 + 
Δx and
20 = Δx and
Δx so
Δx = 50 m
