A space rover weighs less on Mars than it does on Earth. Which statement explains this difference? A. The gravitational constant

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

B. The mass of Mars is less than the mass of Earth.

Explanation:

Mass of an object is the constant anywhere in the universe.

The weight of an object is equal to the gravitational force acting on it.

Weight is given by

$W=\dfrac{GMm}{R^2}\\\Rightarrow W=\dfrac{GM}{R^2}m\\\Rightarrow W=mg$

where

G = Gravitational constant

M = Mass of Planet

R = Radius of planet

m = Mass of object

g = Acceleration due to gravity

So weight of an object depends on the acceleration due to gravity on that planet. The acceleration due to gravity depends on the mass and radius of the planet.

The weight of the object is less on Mars because mars has less mass compared to Earth.

What Is the volume of the rectangular prism of 6cm 9cm and 5cm

Crazy boy [7]

Volume is length times width times height, so 6 times 9 times 5 is 270 centimeters.

Why are some atoms radioactive

Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Atoms are made of three types of sub-atomic particle: neutrons and protons in the nucleus and electrons orbiting the nucleus. Some materials are radioactive because the nucleus of each atom is unstable and gives out nuclear radiation in the form of alpha particles, beta particles or gamma rays.

A 10-foot ladder is leaning straight up against a wall when a person begins pulling the base of the ladder away from the wall at

docker41 [41]

Answer:

$y = 4.36$

Explanation:

Let the height of the ladder be L

$L = 10$

Also:

Let $x = distance\ from\ the\ base\ of\ the\ ladder$

Let $y = height\ of\ the\ base\ of\ the\ ladder$

When the ladder leans against the wall, it forms a triangle and the length of the ladder forms the hypotenuse.

So, we have:

$L^2 = x^2 + y^2$ --- Pythagoras Theorem

When the base is 9ft from the wall, this means that:

$x = 9$

Substitute 9 for x and 10 for L in $L^2 = x^2 + y^2$

$10^2 = 9^2 + y^2$

$100 = 81 + y^2$

Make $y^2$ the subject

$y^2 = 100 - 81$

$y^2 = 19$

Make y the subject

$y = \sqrt{19$

$y = 4.36$

Hence, the true distance at that point is approximately 4.36ft

Hey can anyone please help me with this it’s due in few hours and I’m stuck with ittt

Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

Check body of the explanation

Explanation:

Ooook, quick theory rushdown. if you're at a depth of h in a tank of a fluid, the pressure is the sum of the atmosferic pressure (if the tank is open on top) plus a term which is the product of acceleration of gravity - about $10 ms^-^2$ , the density of whatever you're sinking in, and the depth at which you are. In formula, $p(h) = p_0 + \rho g h$ , and the pressure is the same for every point of the tank at the same depth.

At this point, we can start answering!

1a. The pressure at A is - not counting atmosferic pressure - $1000 * 10 * 1 = 10^4 Pa$ , while in B is $1000*10*2 = 2*10^4 Pa$ , so it's half of it.

1b. The two points are at the same depth, so the pressure is the same - they would be even if the two cilinders weren't linked!

1c. Ditto. Same depth? same pressure!

1d. Usual equation, this time density is 800. Pressure is $800*10*2 = 1,6*10^4 Pa$ : Since the density is 4/5 of water, the pressure is also 4/5 of the one exerted by water

2a. The volume is simply the product, so $4m*3m*2m = 24m^3$

2b. Density is defined as mass over volume, so you simply multiply the volume you found earlier by the density of paraffine: $800* 24 = 1,92 *10^4kg$

2c. Weight is defined as the mass of something times the acceleration due to gravity, in our case it's $1.92 *10^4 kg * 10 ms^{-2} = 1.92 * 10^5 N$

2d. $\rho gh$ again, what a surprise! $800 {kg \over m^3} * 10 {N \over kg}} * 2 m = 1,6* 10^4 {N\over m^2} =1.6*10^4 Pa$

3. Yet again, $\rho gh$ . $1000 {kg \over m^3} * 10 {N \over kg}} * 2 m = 2* 10^4 {N\over m^2} =2*10^4 Pa$
