6 0

Answer:

the weight of alien is 200 newtons

Explanation:

The computation of the alien weight is shown below:

Given that

Acceleration = 20m/sec^2

And, the mass is 10 kg

So, the weight of alien is

= 20 × 10

= 200 newtons

hence, the weight of alien is 200 newtons

Gravitational force depends on the mass of an object.
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

sun, earth, capitol building, human, atom

Explanation:

Gravity is directly proportional to the size of an object. Therefore, the object with the most mass will have the greatest force of gravity. We know this from the equation. F = G\frac{m_1m_2}{r^2}

A shot is fired at an angle of 60 degree horizontal with Kinetic energy E. If air resistance is ignored, the K.E at the top of t
Lapatulllka [165]
I'm not sure what "60 degree horizontal" means.

I'm going to assume that it means a direction aimed 60 degrees
above the horizon and 30 degrees below the zenith. 

Now, I'll answer the question that I have invented.

When the shot is fired with speed of 'S' in that direction,
the horizontal component of its velocity is    S cos(60)  =  0.5 S ,
and the vertical component is   S sin(60) = S√3/2  =  0.866 S .  (rounded)

-- 0.75 of its kinetic energy is due to its vertical velocity.
That much of its KE gets used up by climbing against gravity.

-- 0.25 of its kinetic energy is due to its horizontal velocity.
That doesn't change. 

-- So at the top of its trajectory, its KE is 0.25 of what it had originally. 

That's  E/4 .

A plastic rod that has been charged to − 15 nC touches a metal sphere. Afterward, the rod's charge is − 5.0 nC.
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

B) electrons transferred from sphere to rod.

(2) 1.248 x 10¹¹ electrons were transferred

Explanation:

Given;

initial charge on the plastic rod, q₁ = 15nC

final charge on the plastic rod, q₂ = - 5nC

let the charge acquired by the plastic rod = q

q + 15nC = -5nC

q = -5nC - 15nC

q = -20 nC

Thus, the plastic rod acquired excess negative charge from the metal sphere.

Hence, electrons transferred from sphere to rod

B) electrons transferred from sphere to rod.

2) How many charged particles were transferred?

1.602 x 10⁻¹⁹ C = 1 electron

20 x 10⁻⁹ C = ?

= 1.248 x 10¹¹ electrons

Thus,1.248 x 10¹¹ electrons were transferred

Discuss how friction is reduced in oce skating
belka [17]

Answer:

below

Explanation:

Ice melts, meaning it has a watery layer upon its surface. This allows things to be moving like they are on a liquid but it has the solidity of a solid. The thin metal of the ice skates also decrease the surface area meaning it exerts more force but in turn, it allows you to move faster and further reduces friction.
