A 60.-kilogram physics student would weigh 1560

Physics
1 answer:
rosijanka [135]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

26m/s²

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of the student  = 60kg

Weight  = 1560N

Unknown:

Acceleration due to gravity  = ?

Solution:

Weight is a force on a body due to gravity;

  Weight  = mass x gravity

   

Insert the given parameters and solve;

    1560  = 60 x gravity

    Gravity  = \frac{1560}{60}   = 26m/s²

Two objects have the same momentum. Do the velocities of these objects necessarily have (a) the same directions and (b) the same
NeX [460]

Answer:

(a) They must have same direction

(b) It is not necessary for them to have same magnitudes

Explanation:

(a)

Momentum is a vector quantity. It is the product of mass (scalar) and velocity (vector). Thus, if the direction of velocity is changed, then as a result the direction of momentum will also change or its magnitude or component in the same direction will change. Hence, for the two objects to have same momentum, the directions of their velocities must also be the same.

(b)

Since, the momentum is product of velocity and mass. It is possible that two bodies of different masses with different velocities might have same momentum, provided the direction of their velocities is same.

For example, take a body of mass 4 kg moving with speed 5 m/s. It will have a momentum of 20 N.s. Now, consider another body of mass 2 kg, moving with speed 10 m/s. It will also have a momentum of 20 N.s.

Thus, it is not necessary for two objects to have same magnitude of velocity to have same momentum.

You stand new the earth's equator. A positively charged particle that starts moving parallel to the surface of the earth in a st
Talja [164]

Answer:

c. from south to north

Explanation:

since we know that:

F = qv×B

where F is the force and in this case is pointed upward

where v is the velocity due east

the field must be due north by the right hand rule

Therefore,  near the equator the magnetic field lines of the earth are directed north from south

riders on the tower of doom, an amusement park ride, experience 2.0 s of free fall, after which they are slowed to a stop in 0.5
Rainbow [258]

By Newton's second law, the apparent weight of rider coming at rest is <u>3548 N</u>.

According to formula, v = u + at

a = 39.2 m/s^{2}

Force, F = ma

F = m(a+g)

F = apparent weight

m = mass, given = 65 kg

a = acceleration, given = 39.2 m/s^{2}

g = 9.8 m/s^{2}

Put these values in formula, F = m(a+g)

F = 65(39.2+9.8)

F = 3548 N

Therefore, the apparent weight of rider coming at rest is <u>3548 N</u>.
