Explain the difference between mass and weight and how they are measured.

Physics
1 answer:
tamaranim1 [39]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Mass is a measure of how much force it will take to change that path. Mass depends on how much matter – atoms and so on – there is in an object; more mass means more inertia, as there is more to get moving. ... Weight, on the other hand, is a measure of the amount of downwards force that gravity exerts on an object

Earth’s largest ecosystems, biomes, are defined primarily by:
Darina [25.2K]

Answer: e. All of the above.

Explanation:

Rainfall, temperature, seasonal variability are the important factors which determines the type of vegetation will grow in a biome, the type of animals will adapt and survive. Also these factors also determine the fact that type of landforms will form over a region. These factors are necessary for the development of the biodiversity. A biodiversity can be define as the variability and variety of life forms that can be found in the ecosystem or biome.

A man has 887.5 J of kinetic energy while running with a velocity of 5 m/s. What is his mass?
monitta

Answer:

The mass of the man is 71 kg

Explanation:

Given;

kinetic energy of the man, K.E = 887.5 J

velocity of the man, v = 5 m/s

The mass of the man is calculated as follows;

K.E = ¹/₂mv²

where;

m is the mass of the man

2K.E = mv²

m = 2K.E / v²

m = (2 x 887.5) / (5)²

m = 71 kg

Therefore, the mass of the man is 71 kg

A pitcher exerts a force on a baseball that is 30 times the balls weight. How fast is the pitcher accelerating the ball?
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

 Pitcher is accelerating the ball at 30 times of acceleration due to gravity = 294 m/s²

Explanation:

  Force applied on baseball = 30 times weight of the ball.

   Weight of ball = mg, where m is the mass of ball and g is acceleration due to gravity value.

  We have force applied is also equal to product of mass and acceleration.

                            F = ma = 30 x mg

                                 a = 30g

   So, pitcher is accelerating the ball at 30 times of acceleration due to gravity = 294 m/s²
