Answer:

5.65 m/s²

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the mass of PJ when in San Diego (i.e Earth). This can be obtained as follow:

Weight of PJ on Earth (Wₑ) = 545 N

Acceleration due to gravity (g) on Earth (gₑ) = 10 m/s²

Mass of PJ on Earth (mₑ) =.?

Wₑ = mₑ × gₑ

545 = mₑ × 10

Divide both side by 10

mₑ = 545 / 10

mₑ = 54.5 Kg

Thus, the mass of PJ on San Diego (i.e Earth) is 54.5 Kg

Finally, we shall determine the acceleration due to gravity of planet Koja. This can be obtained as follow:

Weight of PJ on Koja (Wₖ) = 308 N

Mass of PJ on Koja (mₖ) = mass of PJ on Earth (mₑ) because mass is constant irrespective of location.

Mass of PJ on Earth (mₑ) = 54.5 Kg

Mass of PJ on Koja (mₖ) = 54.5 Kg

Acceleration due to gravity of on Koja (gₖ) =?

Wₖ = mₖ × gₖ

308 = 54.5 × gₖ

Divide both side by 54.5

gₖ = 308 / 54.5

gₖ = 5.65 m/s²

Thus, the acceleration due to gravity on planet Koja is 5.65 m/s²

A spotlight on the ground shines on a wall 12 m away. If a man 2 m tall walks from the spotlight toward the building at a speed
gregori [183]

Answer:

the rate of the change of the length of the shadow is - 0.8625 m/s.

The negative(-) sign means the length of the shadow decreases at a rate of 0.8625 m/s.

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Let x represent the man's distance from building,

initially x = 1m2

dx/d t= -2.3 m/s

Also Let y represent shadow height

so we determine dy/dt when x is 4m from the building

form the image description of the problem, we see two-like triangles with the same base and height ratios

so

 2 / (12-x) = y / 12

24 = y(12 - x )

y = 24 / (12-x)

dy/dt = 24/(12-x)² × dx/dt

Now at x = 4,

we substitute

dy/dt will be;

⇒ 24/(12 - 4)² × -2.3

= 24/64 - 2.3

= 0.375 × -2.3

dy/dt = - 0.8625 m/s

Therefore, the rate of the change of the length of the shadow is - 0.8625 m/s.

The negative(-) sign means the length of the shadow decreases at a rate of 0.8625 m/s.

Identify two potential improvements to the opal extraction process and explain how these improvements could minimize harm to the
Orlov [11]

Answer

• Improving the environmental performances

• Developing Green Mining technology

Explanation

The effect to the environment caused by opal mining are; impact on soils and geology, clearing of native vegetation disrupting flora and fauna, change in land use and effects of air quality.

Opal mining is currently examining environmental impacts and adopting measures that mitigate the impacts making the process less destructive to the environment.

With the current commitment to sustainability, opal companies are investing funds for Green Mining as a positive way to impact the environment before and after mining.

A support crossbeam on a high speed train is made from a titanium rod that has a length of 0.650m when measured by an observer o
Vilka [71]

Answer:

A) The crossbeam is moving relative to the observer on the platform so the height appears contracted.

Explanation:

The observer on the train and the beam are in the same reference frame. That means observer on the train will measure the proper length of the beam not the contracted length . the observer is outside and the plank is in the moving system,it will appear to be moving.
