Weight of a person on the earth is given by,

W= mg,

Where, g is the gravitational acceleration of the earth and m is the mass of the person.

Gravitational acceleration of the moon is one-sixth of the earth.

Therefore, the weight of a astronaut who goes to the moon will be one sixth of that on earth. Hence, the astronaut will weight less.

Answer:

s = 37.81 m

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of an apple, m = 1.5 kg

The apple falls for 2.75s before striking the ground.

We need to find how far the apple dropped before hitting the ground. It means we need to find the distance covered. Using the second equation of motion to find it :

s=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2

u is initial velocity, u = 0 (at rest)

s=\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2\\\\s=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 10\times (2.75)^2\\\\=37.81\ m

So, Apple dropped 37.81 m before hitting the ground.

A sound from a source has an intensity of 270 db when it is 1 m from the source. what is the intensity of the sound when it is 3
Lina20 [59]
Sound intensity is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the source and the receiver.
That is 
I = k/r^2
 where
 k = constant
 r = radius

When r=1,  the intensity is I₁ = k/1 = k
When r=3, the intensity I₂ = k/3² = k/9
Therefore
 I₂ = I₁ /9

In decibels,
I = 10 log₁₀(I/I₀)
where I₀ = reference intensity

When r=1,
10 log₁₀ (I₁/I₀) = 270

When r =3,
10 log₁₀ (I₂/I₀) = 10 log₁₀ [(I₂/I₁)*(I₁/I₀)]
                     = 10 log₁₀ [(1/9)*(I₁/I₀)]
                     = 10 log₁₀(1/9) + 270
                     = 260.5

Answer: 260.5 dB (nearest tenth)

What nuclear reaction is the energy source of a white dwarf?
sammy [17]

Answer:

Multiple choice answer would be "None"

Explanation:

White dwarfs are radiating stored heat from earlier reactions.  

Technically, it would be the last fusion stage the star went through  

BEFORE it became a white dwarf, but that's nit-picking.
