Calculate the force on an object with mass of 50kg and gravity of 10

GarryVolchara [31]

Answer: 500 N

Explanation:

The formula to find the force exerted by a mass, we may use F = mg, where g, the gravity, and a, the acceleration, can be interchangeable in the formula.

1) F = 50 x 10
2) F = 500 N

Hope this helps, brainliest would be appreciated :)

Gravitational force acts on all objects in proportion to their masses. Why then, a heavy object does not fall faster than a ligh

guapka [62]

Answer:

This is because the acceleration of objects due to gravity is independent of the mass of the object and is constant for all objects, therefore, all objects fall with the same speed.

Explanation:

The weight of an object or force of gravity acting on an object on the surface of earth is a product of its mass and acceleration due to gravity.

Mathematically, w = mg

where, m=mass of the object; g = acceleration due to gravity

Also, from newton's law of gravitation, gravitational force on the object ,F = GMm/r²

where G is the gravitational constant; M is mass of Earth; m is mass of object; r is the distance of separation between the object and the center of mass of the earth which is approximately the radius of earth.

Since the weight of an object is equal to the force of gravitation acting on it

W = F

mg = GMm/r²

g = GM/r²

The expression above is that of the relationship between the force of gravity acting on a body on the earth's surface, the weight of that body and the acceleration due to gravity, g.

It can be seen that the acceleration due to gravity g is independent of the mass of the object. Therefore, the acceleration of objects due to gravity is constant for all objects and all objects fall with the same speed.

A power plant produces 1000 MW to supply a city 40 km away. Current flows from the power plant on a single wire of resistance 0.

nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

Current = 8696 A

Fraction of power lost = $\dfrac{80}{529}$ = 0.151

Explanation:

Electric power is given by

$P=IV$

where I is the current and V is the voltage.

$I=\dfrac{P}{V}$

Using values from the question,

$I=\dfrac{1000\times10^6 \text{ W}}{115\times10^3\text{ V}} = 8696 \text{ A}$

The power loss is given by

$P_\text{loss} = I^2R$

where R is the resistance of the wire. From the question, the wire has a resistance of $0.050\Omega$ per km. Since resistance is proportional to length, the resistance of the wire is

$R = 0.050\times40 = 2\Omega$

Hence,

$P_\text{loss} = \left(\dfrac{200000}{23}\right)^2\times2$

The fraction lost = $\dfrac{P_\text{loss}}{P}=\left(\dfrac{200000}{23}\right)^2\times2\div (1000\times10^6)=\dfrac{80}{529}=0.151$
