13. If you have a 12 kg object, how do you find the weight?

The weight is the force of gravity acting on the object. So assuming it’s on earth, 12(9.81) also, F(weight in Newtons)=mass( in kg)acceleration (due to gravity)

A man does 4,475 J of work in the process of pushing his 2.50 103 kg truck from rest to a speed of v, over a distance of 26.0 m.
Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

a) 1.89 m/s  b) 172.1 N

Explanation:

a)

  • Applying the work-energy theorem, if we can neglect the friction between truck and road, the total change in kinetic energy must be equal to the work done by the external forces.
  • This work, is just 4,475 J.
  • So we can write the following equation:

        \Delta K = \frac{1}{2} * m*v^{2} = 4,475 J

  • where m= mass of the truck = 2.5*10³ kg.
  • So, we can find the speed v, as follows:

        v =\sqrt{\frac{2*W}{m}} =\sqrt{\frac{2*4,475J}{2.5e3kg} }  = 1.89 m/s

b)

  • The work done by the man, is just the horizontal force applied, times the displacement produced by the force horizontally:

        W = F*d

  • We can solve for F, as follows:

        F = \frac{W}{d} = \frac{4,475 J}{26.0m} =  172.1 N

What must happen to an atom of magnesium in order to become a magnesium ion Mg+2?
igomit [66]

Answer:

Answer is: c. It must lose two electrons and become an ion.

Magnesium (Mg) is metal from 2. group of Periodic table of elements and has low ionisation energy and electronegativity, which means it easily lose valence electons (two valence electrons).

Magnesium has atomic number 12, which means it has 12 protons and 12 electrons. It lost two electrons to form magnesium cation (Mg²⁺) with stable electron configuration like closest noble gas neon (Ne) with 10 electrons.

Electron configuration of magnesium ion: ₁₂Mg²⁺ 1s² 2s² 2p⁶.

A child in danger of drowning in a river is being carried downstream by a current that flows due south uniformly with a speed of
tia_tia [17]

Let the rescue boat starts at an angle theta with the North

now its velocity towards East is given as

v_x = 24sin\theta

v_y = -24cos\theta + 3

now in some time "t" it will catch the boy

so we will have

t = \frac{0.5}{24sin\theta}

also we have

t = \frac{2}{-24cos\theta + 3}

now we have

\frac{2}{-24cos\theta + 3} = \frac{0.5}{24sin\theta}

4*24sin\theta = - 24cos\theta + 3

96 sin\theta + 24cos\theta = 3

by solving above we got

\theta = 164 degree
