A solid weighs 16.5N on the surface of the moon. The force of gravity on the moon is 1.7N/Kg.

Physics
1 answer:
Fiesta28 [93]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

mass = 9.7 kg

Explanation:

Weight = Mass x Acceleration due to gravity (g)

16.5 = mass x 1.7

mass = \frac{16.5}{1.7} = 9.7 kg

Two firefighters are trying to break through a door. One firefighter is heavy, and the other is light. If they run at the same s
frez [133]

Answer:

The Heavier Firefighter

Explanation:

Generally, more massive objects will have more intertia than less massive objects.  As such it takes more force to halt a more massive object if its moving at the same speed as a smaller object. This can also be thought of in the context of Newton's second law. The more force needed to accelerate an object means the more force the object will have.

A certain car traveling in a straight line path has a velocity of +10.0 m/s at some instant. after 3.00 s, its velocity is +6.00
makvit [3.9K]
The formula is:
v = v o + a t
6 = 10 + 3 * a
3 a = 10 - 6
a = 4 : 3
a =  - 1.33 m/s² ( because the car slows down )
Answer: The average acceleration of the car is - 1.33 m/s²

A transform boundary occurs where two tectonic plates _____.?
gladu [14]

Where they slide over each other.

Transform boundaries are formed or occur when two plates slide past each other in a sideways motion.  They do not tear or crunch into each other (but the rock in between them may be ground up) and therefore none of the spectacular features are seen such as occur in divergent and convergent boundaries.

In a transform boundary, neither plate is added to at the boundary nor destroyed.  They are marked in some places by features like  stream beds that have been split in half and the two halves moved in opposite directions.

A uniform disk with a mass of 5.0 kg and diameter 30 cm rotates on a frictionless fixed axis through its center and perpendicula
igomit [66]

Answer:

Angular acceleration of the disk will be \alpha =10.714rad/sec^2

Explanation:

We have given mass of the disk m = 5 kg

Diameter of the disk d = 30 cm = 0.3 m

So radius r=\frac{d}{2}=\frac{0.3}{2}=0.15m

Moment of inertia of disk is given by I=\frac{1}{2}mr^2=\frac{1}{2}\times 5\times 0.15^2=0.056kgm^2

Force is given by F=4 N

Torque is given as \tau =Fr=4\times 0.15=0.6N-m

We also know that torque is given by \tau =I\alpha

0.6=0.056\times \alpha

\alpha =10.714rad/sec^2
