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>

5.00 kg of liquid water is heated to 100.0 °C in a closed system. At this temperature, the density of liquid water is 958 kg/m3.
user100 [1]

Answer:

1.04\times 10^7\ J.

Explanation:

In the question given :

Pressure is constant

Therefore, Work done, W=P\times\Delta V

Pressure, P=1.01 × 105 Pa.

Final volume, V_f=8.50\ m^3.

Initial volume, V_i=\dfrac{Mass}{density}=\dfrac{5}{958}=5.22\times10^-3\ m^3.

Therefore, W=8.58\times 10^{5}\ J.

Also, Heat Given, Q=m\times L=5\times 2.26\times 10^{6}\ J=1.13\times 10^7\ J.

Also, according to First law of thermodynamics:

\Delta U=Q-W=(1.13\times 10^7)-(8.58\times 10^5)=1.04\times 10^7\ J.

Hence, this is the required solution.

If only 10 pounds is required to lift a 500-lb block, how much chain must be played out to lift the engine 3.0 inches?
adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

150 inches (12.5 ft)

Explanation:

The work done to lift the 500 pound block 3 inches should be the same as that to lift the 10 pond object a given distance.

The following is the equation one needs to solve:

10 \,lb\,* \,x\,=\,500\,lb\,*\,3\,in\\10 \,lb\,* \,x\,=\,1500\,lb\,in\\

therefore solving for the distance "x" gives as the answer (in inches):

10 \,lb\,* \,x\,=\,1500\,lb\,in\\x\,=\,\frac{1500\,lb\,in}{10\,lb} \\\\x\,=150\,in

which can also be given in feet as: 12.5 ft

Which describes the greenhouse effect? 1. Earth continues to get warmer over time because it is slowly moving closer to the sun.
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer: The green house effect is best described by option 4 (Energy given off by earth is reflected off of earth's atmosphere back down to the surface).

Explanation:

The green house effect can be described as the energy given off by earth is reflected off of earth's atmosphere back down to the surface.

When energy from the sun passes through the atmosphere, some are absorbed which keeps the earth surface warm. While the rest is reflected back largely by cloud.

The energy which is emitted from the earth surface is called the infrared radiation. Some of the infrared radiation passess through the atmosphere but most is absorbed and re- emitted in all directions by the greenhouse gas molecules and clouds. This effect warms the earth surface and the lower atmosphere. Therefore this statement (Energy given off by earth is reflected off of earth's atmosphere back down to the surface) is correct about greenhouse effect.

For the greenhouse effect to occur, greenhouse gas molecules are mostly needed. Examples of these gases include:

--> Carbon dioxide (CO2),

--> Water vapor (H2O), and

--> Methane (CH4)

Over the years, the excessive human activities has lead to increase in the greenhouse gas molecules which has negatively affected the greenhouse effects.

Unlike most real bulbs, the resistances of the bulbs in the questions below do not change as the current through them changes. A
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

Option 1 is correct.

The current passing through the brighter bulb is larger.

Explanation:

The brightness of the bulb is determined by the power, I²R

And since they all have equal resistances, the only factor different that could result in more or less power is the current, I through the bulb.
