Why can we say that the ratio of net force to mass is constant forany dropped object on Earth?

Physics
1 answer:
vaieri [72.5K]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

All objects free fall at the same rate regardless of their mass. Because the 9.8 N/kg gravitational field at Earth's surface causes a 9.8 m/s/s acceleration of any object placed there, we often call this ratio the acceleration of gravity.

Explanation:

Newton's Second Law, if I remember right.

An 89.2-kg person with a density 1025 kg/m3 stands on a scale while completely submerged in water. What does the scale read?
Luden [163]

Answer:

89.11kg

Explanation:

Note an object weighs less when in a fluid and the weight of the volume of the fluid displaced is known as the upthrust.

Now, the person is going to displace the volume 89/1025 =0.087m3 { from density D = mass(M)/volume(V)}

The weight of the fluid displaced is the density of the fluid × volume of fluid displaced.

The weight of the fluid=0.087m3× 1kg/me = 0.087kg

Now the weight of the fluid displaced is referred to as the upthrust.

Now the real weight - the apparent weight = the upthrust.

Hence the apparent weight = real weight - upthrust

Apparent weight = 89.2-0.087 = 89.11kg

Which property of a substance can determine using a ph indicator
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

The acidic or the basic nature of a substance can be determined using a pH indicator. If the pH indicator , shows a pH value less than 7 , the substance is acidic. Lower the pH , high is the acidic nature.

julsineya [31]

Answer:

Resistivity Method

Explanation:

A disadvantage of some geophysical techniques based on magnetism is that their use in urban areas may be subject to distortion resulting from power lines and metals in the immediate vicinity. One method that can be used in such areas relies on soil moisture and the ground's resistance to electricity and is known as Resistivity.

It is usually carried out by injecting a small electrical current through the earth and measured a subtle  sub-surface change in resistance over a given area.

The aorta is approximately 25 mm in diameter. The mean pressure there is about 100 mmHg and the blood flows through the aorta at
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

Explanation:

25 mm diameter

r₁  = 12.5 x 10⁻³ m radius.

cross sectional area =  a₁

Pressure P₁  = 100 x 10⁻³ x 13.6 x 9.8 Pa

a )

velocity of blood v₁ = .6 m /s

Cross sectional area at blockade = 3/4 a₁

Velocity at blockade area = v₂

As liquid is in-compressible

a₁v₁ = a₂v₂

a₁ x .6 m /s  = 3/4 a₁ v₂

v₂ = .8m/s

b )

Applying Bernauli's theorem formula

P₁ + 1/2 ρv₁² =  P₂ +  1/2 ρv₂²

100 x 10⁻³ x 13.6 x10³x 9.8 + 1/2 X 1060 x .6² = P₂ +  1/2x 1060 x .8²

13328 +190.8 = P₂ + 339.2

P₂ = 13179.6 Pa

= 13179 / 13.6 x 10³ x 9.8 m of Hg

P₂ =  .09888 m of Hg

98.88 mm of Hg

m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

You could move something across the Earth with a little push. It would make fuel really efficient on those pathways. You could make a floor that is impossible to walk on. Everybody would just fall without traction.
