The acceleration due to gravity on Jupiter is 2.5 times what it is here on earth. An object weighing 347.9 N here on earth will

inessss [21]

Answer: weight on Jupiter = 869.75 N

mass on Earth = mass on Jupiter = 35.5 Kg

Explanation:

W = mg

W = weight

m = mass

g = gravitational acceleration [ on the Earth, g₁ = 9,8 N/kg ]

On the Earth,

G₁ = m x g₁ = 347,9 N

On the Jupiter,

G₂ = mg₂

mass on the Earth = mass on the Jupiter !

m = G₁ : g = 347.9 N : 9,8 N/kg = 35.5 kg

G2 : G1 = 2.5

G₂ = 2,5 G₁ = 2,5 x 347.9 N = 869,75 N

A parallel circuit has a 125 Volt battery connected with 3 resistors. R1= 20 Ω, R2= 100 Ω, and R3= 50 Ω. Find the total current

Musya8 [376]

Answer:

10A

Explanation:

to calculate r

1/R=1/20+1/100+1/50=2/25

r=25/2=12.5

I=125/12.5=10A

A seagull flies at a velocity of 9.00 m/s straight into the wind.

RideAnS [48]

a)If it takes the bird 18.0 minutes to fly 6 km away from the earth, the wind's speed will be 4 m/s.

b) The bird would need 7 minutes and 42 seconds to fly back 6 kilometers if he turned around and flew with the wind.

c)Compared to the 133.33 seconds it would take without the wind, the overall round-trip time is affected by the wind.

<h3>What is velocity?</h3>

The change of distance with respect to time is defined as speed. Speed is a scalar quantity. It is a time-based component. Its unit is m/sec.

The given data in the problem is

A seagull flies at a velocity, $\rm v_{SA} = 9 \ m/sec$

The time the bird takes,t=18.0 min

The distance traveled relative to the earth = 6.00 km

a)

The seagull's relative velocity with reference to the ground as;

$\rm v_{sg} = \frac{6.00 \times 10^3 \ m }{(20 min) \times \frac{60 s }{1 \ min}} \\\\ v_{sg}= 5.00 \ m/sec$

Air velocity with reference to the ground is;

$\rm v_{AG}= v_{SG}-v_{SA} \\\\ v_{AG} = 5.00 \ m/sec - 9.00 \ m/sec \\\\ v_{AG} = -4.00 \ m/sec$

b)

If the bird turns around and flies with the wind, The time will he take to return 6.00 km is;

$\rm v_{SG}=v_{SA}+v_{AG} \\\\ v_{SG}=-900 \ m/sec +(-4.00 \ m/sec) \\\\ v_{SG}= -13.00 \ m/sec$

The time the bird takes;

$\rm t = \frac{x_{SG}}{v_{SG}} \\\\ t = \frac{6.00 \times 10^3 \ m }{13.00 \ m/sec } \\\\ t = 462 m/sec \\\\ t = 7 \ min \ and \ 42 \ sec$

c)\

The total round-trip time compared to what it would be with no wind. is;

$\rm t = 20 \ min( \frac{60 \ sec }{1 \ min} )+ 462 \ sec \\\\ t = 1200 \ sec +6 462 \ ec \\\\ t= 1662 \ sec$

The time for the round trip is;

$\rm t = \frac{12 \times 10^ 3 }{ 9 \ m/sec } \\\\ t = 1333.33 \ sec$

Hence the wind's speed, the time bird would need to fly back the total round-trip time will be 4 m/s, 7 minutes and 42 seconds and 1333.33 sec.

estion: Why is it important to use vector quantities and not just scalar quantities to describe the motion of an object? Vector

Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

Vector quantities are important in the study of motion. Some examples of vector quantities include force, velocity, acceleration, displacement, and momentum. The difference between a scalar and vector is that a vector quantity has a direction and a magnitude, while a scalar has only a magnitude. Vector, in physics, a quantity that has both magnitude and direction. It is typically represented by an arrow whose direction is the same as that of the quantity and whose length is proportional to the quantity's magnitude. A quantity which does not depend on direction is called a scalar quantity. Vector quantities have two characteristics, a magnitude and a direction. The resulting motion of the aircraft in terms of displacement, velocity, and acceleration are also vector quantities. A vector quantity is different to a scalar quantity because a quantity that has magnitude but no particular direction is described as scalar. A quantity that has magnitude and acts in a particular direction is described as vector.
