Answer:

Weight on Earth = We = 186.2 N

Weight on Mars = Wm = 70.94 N

Explanation:

The weight of an object is defined as the force applied on the object by the gravitational field. The magnitude of weight is given by the following formula:

W = mg

were,

W= Weight of Eric

m = mass of Eric

g = acceleration due to gravity

ON EARTH:

W = We = Eric's Weight on Earth = ?

m = Eric's Mass on Earth = 19 kg

ge = acceleration due to gravity on Earth = 9.8 m/s²

Therefore,

We = (19 kg)(9.8 m/s²)

<u>We = 186.2 N</u>

<u></u>

ON MARS:

W = Wm = Eric's Weight on Mars = ?

m = Eric's Mass on Mars = 19 kg

gm = acceleration due to gravity on Mars = 0.381(ge) = (0.381)9.8 m/s² = 3.733 m/s²

Therefore,

Wm = (19 kg)(3.733 m/s²)

<u>Wm = 70.94 N</u>

A car starts to move from rest and covers a distance of 360m in one minute. Calculate the acceleration of the car.
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]
<h2>The acceleration of car is 0.2 ms⁻²</h2>

Explanation:

When the car moves , the distance covered is calculated by the relation

S = u t + \frac{1}{2} a t²

In this question u = 0 , because car was at rest initially

Thus S =  \frac{1}{2} a t²

here S is displacement and a is the acceleration of car

Therefore  360 =  \frac{1}{2} a ( 60 )²

Because time taken is one minute or 60 seconds

Therefore a = \frac{360x2}{3600}

or a = 0.2 m s⁻²

Which quantity measures the maximum distance an object on a spring moves from the equilibrium position during oscillation?
nasty-shy [4]
The appropriate response is amplitude. A measure of its change over a solitary period. There are different meanings of plentifulness, which are all elements of the extent of the distinction between the variable's outrageous qualities. In more seasoned writings, the stage is now and again called the adequacy.
