A rock has a mass of 3.1 kg. What is its weight on earth

Physics
1 answer:
Masteriza [31]3 years ago

Answer:

W = 30.38 N

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of a rock, m = 3.1 kg

We need to find the weight of the rock on the surface of Earth. Weight of an object is given by :

W = mg

g is the acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s²

W = 3.1 kg × 9.8 m/s²

= 30.38 N

So, the weight of the rock on the Earth is 30.38 N.

hodyreva [135]

Answer:

V = 228\ V

Explanation:

given,

charge of two spherical drop = 0.1 nC

potential at the surface = 300 V

two drops merge to form a single drop

potential at the surface of new drop = ?

V = \dfrac{kq}{r}

r = \dfrac{9\times 10^9\times 0.1 \times 10^{-9}}{300}

r = 0.003 m

volume = 2 \times \dfac{4}{3}\pi r^3

            = 2 \times \dfac{4}{3}\pi \times 0.003^3

            = 2.612 × 10⁻⁷ m³

\dfac{4}{3}\pi R^3 = 2.612\times 10^{-7}

R =\sqrt[3]{\dfrac{2.612 \times 10^{-7}\times 3}{4\times \pi}}

R = 0.00396 m

V = \dfrac{kq}{r}

V = \dfrac{9\times 10^9 \times 0.1 \times 10^{-9}}{0.00396}

V = 227.27

V = 228\ V

Two electric motors drive two elevators of equal mass in a three-story building 10 meters tall. each elevator has a mass of 1,00
Licemer1 [7]
<span>The power output is calculated by multiplying the weight of the elevator (1000 kg) by g (9.8 m/s^2) and by the distance (10 m), then dividing the product by the time (10 s). Thus, the power output of the second motor is 9800 watts.</span>

If you were to travel from the equator to the higher latitudes (near either pole) on Saturn, the differential rotation would cau
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

Saturn's differential rotation will cause the length of a day measures to be longer by 0.4 hours

Explanation:

Differential rotation occurs due to the difference in angular velocities of an object as we move along the latitude of the or as we move into different depth of the object, indicating the observed object is in a fluid form

Saturn made almost completely of gas and has differential motion given as follows

Rotation at the equator = 10 hours 14 minutes

Rotation at high altitude = 10 hours 38 minutes

Therefore;

The differential rotation = 10 hours 38 minutes - 10 hours 14 minutes

The differential rotation = 24 minutes = 24 minutes × 1 hour/(60 minutes) = 0.4 hours

The differential rotation = 0.4 hours

Therefore, the measured day at the higher altitude will be 0.4 longer than at the equator.
