vesna_86 [32]

Answer: Weight

Explanation:The mass of an object is a measure of the quantity of matter in the object. This quantity remains constant under any circumstance.

However, the same cannot be said about the weight of such object.

The weight of the object is very much dependent on the acceleration due to gravity which is a accelerational pull (by convention-- a pull downwards).

This is why an object tends to fall when it is thrown upwards on the earth for instance.

The statements above consequently infer that since the gravitational field of Jupiter is greater than that of the earth, the acceleration due to gravity on Jupiter is greater than that on earth.

And since the weight of an object(W) is a product of its mass and the acceleration due to gravity at that point.

Consequently, the object's weight on Jupiter would be greater than its weight on earth.

Please note; The Mass of the object remains constant everywhere.

B. Projectile on cliff (range)

dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

x = 41.28 m

Explanation:

This is a projectile launching exercise, let's find the time it takes to get to the base of the cliff.

Let's start by using trigonometry to find the initial velocity

cos 25 = v₀ₓ / v₀

sin 25 = Iv_{oy} / v₀

v₀ₓ = v₀ cos 25

v_{oy} = v₀ sin 25

v₀ₓ = 22 cos 25 = 19.94 m / s

v_{oy} = 22 sin 25 = 0.0192 m / s

let's use movement on the vertical axis

y = y₀ + v_{oy} t - ½ g t²

when reaching the base of the cliff y = 0 and the initial height is y₀ = 21 m

0 = 21 + 0.0192 t - ½ 9.81 t²

4.905 t² - 0.0192 t - 21 = 0

t² - 0.003914 t - 4.2813 =0

we solve the quadratic equation

t = $\frac{ 0.003914\ \pm \sqrt{0.003914^2 + 4 \ 4.2813 } }{2}$

t = $\frac{0.003914 \ \pm 4.13828}{2}$

t₁ = 2.07 s

t₂ = -2.067 s

since time must be a positive scalar quantity, the correct result is

t = 2.07 s

now we can look up the distance traveled

x = v₀ₓ t

x = 19.94 2.07

x = 41.28 m

The Mars Curiosity rover was required to land on the surface of Mars with a velocity of 1 m/s. Given the mass of the landing veh

Aliun [14]

Answer:

The value is $A = 39315 \ m^2$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The velocity which the rover is suppose to land with is $v = 1 \ m/s$

The mass of the rover and the parachute is $m = 2270 \ kg$

The drag coefficient is $C__{D}} = 0.5$

The atmospheric density of Earth is $\rho = 1.2 \ kg/m^3$

The acceleration due to gravity in Mars is $g_m = 3.689 \ m/s^2$

Generally the Mars atmosphere density is mathematically represented as

$\rho_m = 0.71 * \rho$

=> $\rho_m = 0.71 * 1.2$

=> $\rho_m = 0.852 \ kg/m^3$

Generally the drag force on the rover and the parachute is mathematically represented as

$F__{D}} = m * g_{m}$

=> $F__{D}} = 2270 * 3.689$

=> $F__{D}} = 8374 \ N$

Gnerally this drag force is mathematically represented as

$F__{D}} = C__{D}} * A * \frac{\rho_m * v^2 }{2}$

Here A is the frontal area

So

$A = \frac{2 * F__D }{ C__D} * \rho_m * v^2 }$

=> $A = \frac{2 * 8374 }{ 0.5 * 0.852 * 1 ^2 }$

=> $A = 39315 \ m^2$

An elevator is moving is an upwards

Minchanka [31]

Answer:

The elevator's free-body diagram has three forces, the force of gravity, a downward normal force from you, and an upward force from the tension in the cable holding the elevator. The combined system of you + elevator has two forces, a combined force of gravity and the tension in the cable.

Janice has just measured the density of an object. Which value is possible? (Density: D = )

babunello [35]

It is 6 g/cm3 because density cannot be negative, and it is not speed in which the unit would be m/s.
