Since you already gave us the weight of the 2.5-kg box,
we don't even need to know what the distance is, just
as long as it doesn't change.
Look at the formula for the gravitational force:
F = G m₁ m₂ / R² .
If 'G', 'm₁' (mass of the Earth), and 'R' (distance from the Earth's center)
don't change, then the Force is proportional to m₂ ... mass of the box,
and you can write a simple proportion:
(6.1 N) / (2.5 kg) = (F) / (1 kg)
Cross-multiply: (6.1 N) (1 kg) = (F) (2.5 kg)
Divide each side by (2.5 kg): F = (6.1N) x (1 kg) / (2.5 kg) = 2.44 N .
Answer: A
<u>Explanation:</u>
NOTES:
d = 650 meters
t = 10 seconds
**********************************
v = d/t
= 650 meters/10 seconds
= 65 meters/second
Answer:
That is, mechanical waves cannot travel through a vacuum. This feature of mechanical waves is often demonstrated in a Physics class. A ringing bell is placed in a jar and air inside the jar is evacuated. Once air is removed from the jar, the sound of the ringing bell can no longer be heard.
Answer:
3331.5 kg
Explanation:
Given:
Spring constant of the spring (k) = 24200 N/m
Frequency of oscillation (f) = 0.429 Hz
Let the mass be 'm' kg.
Now, we know that, a spring-mass system undergoes Simple Harmonic Motion (SHM). The frequency of oscillation of SHM is given as:

Rewrite the above equation in terms of 'm'. This gives,

Now, plug in the given values and solve for 'm'. This gives,

Therefore, the mass of the truck is 3331.5 kg.
