Recall that weight is a force and is equal to m*g, where g is the acceleration due to gravity exerted by the Earth near the Eart
Art [367]

Answer:

W of the person in moon  ≈ 124.70 N

Explanation:

Weight: Weight of a body can be defined as the product of mass and the gravitational acceleration of the body. The S.I unit of weight is  Newton (N). It can be expressed mathematically as

W = mg

Where W = weight of the body, m = mass of the body (kg) and a = acceleration of the body (m/s²)

Weight(W) = Mass (m) × Acceleration due to gravity (g)

∴ W = m × g.

If the person is on the moon,

Mass = 76.5 kg.

g (moon) = 16.6% of g ( earth)

But g(earth) = 9.80 m/s².

∴ g (moon) = 9.80 × (16.6/100)

 g (moon) = 1.63 m/s², m = 76.5 Kg

∴ Weight of the person in moon = 76.5 × 1.63 =124.695 N

   W of the person in moon  ≈ 124.70 N

A shell is fired from the ground with an initial speed of 1.74 ✕ 103 m/s at an initial angle of 58° to the horizontal.
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

a) horizontal range s=277671.77 m

b) time the shell is in motion 301.143 s

Explanation:

Is a parabolic movement so the velocity have two components:

v = 1.74 x 10^{3}  ( \frac{m}{s} )

\alpha = 58°

v_{y} =v*Sen (\alpha )\\v_{x} =v*Cos (\alpha )

v_{y} =1740*Sen (58 )\\v_{x} =1740*Cos (58)

v_{y} = 1475.603 \frac{m}{s}\\v_{x} = 922.059 \frac{m}{s}\\

t= \frac{2*v_{y} }{g}

t= \frac{2*1475.603 }{9.8}

t= 301.143 s

v= \frac{s}{t} \\s= v_{x}*t

s= 922.059 \frac{m}{s} * 301.143 s

s = 277671.77 m

Does the charge that flows into the capacitor during the charging go all the way through the capacitor and back to the battery,
snow_lady [41]
The capacitor is used to store electric charge.That is what makes capacitors special. <span>
The charge that flows into the capacitor is stored on the plate of the capacitor that the source voltage is connected to. </span>When current flows into a capacitor, the charges get “stuck” on the plates because they can’t get past the insulating dielectric. One plate is positively charged and the other negatively <span>The stationary charges on these plates create an </span>electric field. <span>When charges group together on a capacitor like this, the cap is storing electric energy just as a battery might store chemical energy.</span>

What measures air pressure.?
Alekssandra [29.7K]
That depends on what type of pressure you are attempting to measure, to measure Atmospheric pressure, you would use a Barometer. To measure things like tires, you could use a Tire Pressure Gauge. For Industrial processes and boilers, you would use a Manometer. For pressure vessels, you would use a Bordon Gauge.   <span />
