Answer:

The magnitude is "3.8 m/s²", in the upward direction.

Explanation:

The given values are:

Mass,

m = 88 kg

Scale reads,

T = 900 N

As we know,

⇒  N=mg

On substituting the given values, we get

⇒      =88\times 9.8

⇒      =862.4 \ N

Now,

⇒  T=mg-ma

On substituting the given values in the above equation, we get

⇒  900=862.4-9.8 a

On subtracting "862.4" from both sides, we get

⇒  900-862.4=862.4-9.8 a-862.4

⇒              37.6=-9.8a

⇒                   a=-\frac{37.6}{9.8}

⇒                   a=3.8 \ m/s^2 (upward direction)

A hiker walks 11 km due north from camp and then turns and walks 11 km due east. What is the magnitude of the displacement (on a
sattari [20]

Answer:

16 km

Explanation:

Drawing a right triangle to model the problem helps. I started by drawing the lines of the triangle to model the hiker's journey- a vertical straight line for 11 km north and then a horizontal line connected to the top of it for 11 km east; I then drew the hypothenuse to connect the two lines.

The hypothenuse is what we have to solve for, so we will use the Pythagorean Theorem, a^2 + b^2 = c^2. Since both distances are 11 km both a and b in the equation are 11.

11^2 + 11^2 = c^2

121 + 121 = c^2

242 = c^2

c = 15.56

Rounding the answer makes it 16 km for the hiker's magnitude of displacement.

The surface of the Sun has a temperature of about 5 800 K. If the radius of the Sun is 7 × 108 m, determine the power output of
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

a. 3.95\times10^{26}W

Explanation:

T = temperature of the surface of sun = 5800 K

r = Radius of the Sun = 7 x 10⁸ m

A = Surface area of the Sun

Surface area of the sun is given as

A = 4\pi r^{2} \\A = 4(3.14) (7\times10^{8})^{2}\\A = 6.2\times10^{18} m^{2}

e = Emissivity = 1

\sigma = Stefan's constant = 5.67 x 10⁻⁸ Wm⁻²K⁻⁴

Using Stefan's law, Power output of the sun is given as

P = \sigma e AT^{4} \\P = (5.67\times10^{-8}) (1) (6.2\times10^{18}) (5800)^{4}\\P = 3.95\times10^{26} W

ATP molecules store cellular energy. When phosphate groups are removed and molecules of ADP are formed, energy is released. This
slava [35]
<span>Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) consists of an adenosine molecule bonded to three phophate groups in a row. In a process called cellular respiration, chemical energy in food is converted into chemical energy that the cell can use, and stores it in molecules of ATP. This occurs when a molecule of adenosine diphosphate (ADP) uses the energy released during cellular respiration to bond with a third phosphate group, becoming a molecule of ATP. So the energy from cellular respiration is stored in the bond between the 2nd and 3rd phosphate groups of ATP. When the cell needs energy to do work, ATP loses its 3rd phosphate group, releasing energy stored in the bond that the cell can use to do work. Now its back to being ADP and is ready to store the energy from respiration by bonding with a 3rd phosphate group. ADP and ATP constantly convert back and forth in this manner.
