Answer: See answers below.

Explanation: In this problem, we must be clear about the concept of weight. Weight is defined as the product of mass by gravitational acceleration.

We must be clear that the mass is always preserved, that is, the mass of 15 [kg] will always be the same regardless of the planet where they are.

where:

W = weight [N] (units of Newtons)

m = mass = 15 [kg]

g = gravity acceleration [m/s²]

Since we have 9 places with different gravitational acceleration, then we calculate the weight in each of these nine places.

Mercury

Venus

Moon

Mars

Jupiter

Saturn

Uranus

Neptune

Pluto

What are the differences between forces and pressure

slamgirl [31]

Answer:

Force is a push or pull action between objects. Pressure is force acting on a surface area of an object, thus it is force per unit area.

how many days does it take a team of drivers to drive a truck california and back to lansing if the drivers average 15m/s includ

Scilla [17]

Answer:

t = 2.2 [days] and is there is a round trip, it will be double time t = 4.4 [days]

Explanation:

First, we need to arrange the problem to work in the same unit system (SI).

We need to convert the 1800 [miles] to meters, therefore:

$1800[miles] * \frac{1609.34[m]}{1[mile]} }=2896812[m] = 2896.8[km]$

Now using the following equation of kinematics, for the avarage velocity we have:

$v=\frac{x}{t} \\where \\v=velocity [m/s]\\t = time [s]\\x=distance traveled [m]\\$

therefore:

$t=\frac{x}{v} \\t=\frac{2896812}{15}\\ t=193120.8[s]$

Now we can convert from seconds into days.

$193120.8[s]*\frac{1[hr]}{3600[s]}*\frac{1[day]}{24[hr]}\\ t = 2.2[days]$

Now if the truck has the need to come back, the team will spend double time.

t= 4.4 [days]

Explain how a higher temperature affects the efficiency of transmitting electricity

Slav-nsk [51]

Increasing ambient temperature decreases efficiency and load carrying capacity of electric transmission lines.
Increased molecular movement in the conductors as temperature rises, increases resistance to current flow.

How much work is done against gravity when lifting a 2-kg sack of groceries a distance of 2.5 meters?

Crazy boy [7]

W = F x d/x = (m x Ag) x h, therefore, mass (2kg x 9.8) x 2.5m = 49J
