How do we weigh planets? Explain your thinking

Physics
1 answer:
aleksandrvk [35]3 years ago
4 0
The weight (or the mass) of a planet is determined by its gravitational effect on other bodies. Newton's Law of Gravitation states that every bit of matter in the universe attracts every other with a gravitational force that is proportional to its mass.

What is a newton equal to in terms of units of mass and acceleration
artcher [175]

1 newton is the force needed to accelerate 1 kilogram of mass
at the rate of 1 meter per second² .

         1 N = 1 kg-m/s² .

It's a force equal to roughly  3.6 ounces.

A 0.0600-kilogram ball traveling at 60.0 meters
Vikki [24]
     The momentum of ball is given by:

\Delta Q=mv \\ \Delta Q=6*10^{-2}*60 \\ \Delta Q=3.6kg*m/s
  
     Since both have the same momentum, we have:

\Delta Q=MV \\ 3.6=10^{-2}V \\ \boxed {V=360m/s}

Number 3

If you notice any mistake in my english, please let me know, because i am not native.

You are holding one end of an elastic cord that is fastened to a wall 3.0 m away. You begin shaking the end of the cord at 2.3 H
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

Time take to fill the standing wave to the entire length of the string is 1.3 sec.

Explanation:

Given :

The length of the one end x= 3m, frequency of the wave f = 2.3 Hz, wavelength of the wave λ = 1 m.

Standing wave is the example of the transverse wave, standing wave doesn't transfer energy in a medium.

We know,

∴ v = fλ

Where v = speed of the standing wave.

also, ∴ v=\frac{x}{t}

where t = time take to fill entire length of the string.

Compare above both equation,

⇒   t = \frac{3}{2.3} sec

     t = 1.3sec

Therefore, the time taken to fill entire length 0f the string is 1.3 sec.

4. A metal fork has a density of 7.8 g/cm ³. Is this fork made up of aluminum?
Morgarella [4.7K]
No, aluminum has a density near 2.7 g/cm^3 
<span>7.8 g/cm^3 is near the density of iron (or in the case of a fork, steel).
this is it
