A man can lift a mass of 200kg onThe surface of the earth. what is the amount of mass he can lift on the surface of the moon?
Arlecino [84]

Answer:

1,211.1 kg.

Explanation:

the force of gravity is less on the moon than on earth, so if the man can lift 200kg on earth, he could lift a greater amount on the moon because there is less resistance from gravity.

To know the amount of mass he can lift on the moon, we first need to know the amount of weight that is equivalent to those 200kg here on earth. This because the weight of the object is equal to the force that must be applied to lift it, and that force is applied by the man and it will be the same here and on the moon.

We calculate weight using the formula:

w=mg

where w is the weight of the object (the force with which the earth attracts the object) m is the mass and g the acceleration of gravity.

so

w=200g

for earth the acceleration due to gravity is:  g=9.81m/s^2

thus:

w=(200kg)(9.81m/s^2)\\w=1962N

now we use this value to calculate the mass he can lift on the moon, since for the moon g=1.62m/s^2.

we use the same equation, w =mg substituting w = 1962N and g=1.62m/s^2:

w=mg\\\\1962N=m(1.62m/s^2)\\\\m=\frac{1962N}{1.62m/s^2}\\\\ m=1,211.1kg

he can lift 1,211.1 kg.

You can also find the result using the approximate value of the acceleration of gravity on the moon as g/6, where g is the acceleration on earth.

A balloon is a sphere with a radius of 5.0 m. the force of air against the walls of the balloon is 45 n. what is the air pressur
Mazyrski [523]

The air pressure inside the balloon is: 0.1432 Pa

The formulas and procedures that we will use to solve this problem are:

  • a = 4 * π * r²
  • P = F/a

Where:

  • a = area of the sphere
  • r = radius
  • π = mathematical constant
  • P = Pressure
  • F = Force
  • a = surface area

Information about the problem:

  • r = 5.0 m
  • F = 45 N
  • 1 Pa = N/m²
  • 1 N = kg * m/s²
  • a=?
  • P=?

Using the formula of the sphere area we get:

a = 4 * π * r²

a = 4 * 3.1416 * (5.0 m)²

a = 314.16 m²

Applying the pressure formula we get:

P = F/a

P = 45 N/314.16 m²

P = 0.1432 Pa

<h3>What is pressure?</h3>

It is a physical quantity that expresses the force applied on the area of a surface.

Express the length of a marathon run of<br> 26 mi 385 yd in meters.<br> Answer in units of m.
hjlf

Answer:

1 mi = 5280 ft  * 12 in/ft = 63360 in

A convenient conversion factor (to remember) is 1 m = 39.37 in

63360 in / (39.37 in / m) = 1609.3 m

26 mi + 285 m = 26 * 1609.3 + 385 = 42,228 m
