Answer: 117.6N

Explanation:

By the second Newton's law, we know that:

F = m*a

F = force

m = mass

a = acceleration

We know that in the surface of the Earth, the gravitational acceleration is g = 9.8m/s^2.

Then we just can input that acceleration in the above equation, and also replace m by 12kg, and find that the force due the gravity is:

F = 12kg*9.8m/s^2 = 117.6N

A chunk of paraffin (wax) has a mass of 50.4 grams and a volume of 57.9 cm3. What is the density of

ExtremeBDS [4]

$Formula\ for\ density:\\\\
p=\frac{m}{V}\\p-density,\\m-mass,\\V-volume\\\\
Data:\\
m=50,4grams\\
V=57,9cm^3\\\\
p=\frac{50,4g}{57,9cm^3}=0,87\frac{g}{cm^3}\\\\Density\ of\ paraffin\ is\ equal\ to\ 0,87\frac{g}{cm^3}.

how much gravitational potential energy do you give a 70 kg person when you lift him up 3 m in the air?

SCORPION-xisa [38]

Given gravitational potential energy when he's lifted is 2058 J.

Kinetic energy is transferred to the person.

Amount of kinetic energy the person has is -2058 J

velocity of person = 7.67 m/s².

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Given:

Weight of person = 70 kg

Lifted height = 3 m

1. Gravitational potential energy of a lifted person is equal to the work done.

$PE_g=W=m\times g\times h\\Acceleration due to gravity = g = 9.8 \ m/s^2 \\PE_g= m = m\times g\times h= 70\times 9.8 \times 3 = 2058\ kg.m/s^2 = 2058\ J$

Gravitational potential energy is equal to 2058 Joules.

2. The Gravitational potential energy is converted into kinetic energy. Kinetic energy is being transferred to the person.

3. Kinetic energy gained = Potential energy lost = $-PE_g = -2058\ kg.m/s^2$

Kinetic energy gained by the person = (-2058 kg.m/s²)

4. Velocity = ?

Kinetic energy magnitude= $\frac{1}{2} m\times v^2 = m\times g \times h$

Solving for v, we get

$v=\sqrt{2gh} =\sqrt{2\times 9.8 \times 3} = \sqrt{58.8} = 7.67 m/s^2$

The person will be going at a speed of 7.67 m/s².

after singing for a few minutes the soloist rejoins the choir a second choir, consist of 90 additional singers then joins in eac

vredina [299]

If the soloist produces "x" decibels and the 10-person choir produces "y" decibels, combined they will produce "x+y" decibels.

The second choir has 90 additional singers, we base our description on the first choir. If a 10-person choir produces "x+y" decibels, then the 90 person choir produces 10 (x+y) decibels.
