Answer:
See answers below
Explanation:
a.
F = mg,
15.5 N = m(9.8 m/s²)
m = 1.58 kg
b.
Fnet = Applied force - resistance,
Fnet = 18 N - 4.30 N,
Fnet = 13.70 N
Fnet = ma
13.70 N = (1.58 kg)a
a = 8.67 m/s²
For the free body diagram, draw a box with an upward arrow labeled 15.5 N, a downward label labeled 15.5 N, a right label labeled 18 N, and a left label labeled 4.30 N.
This is a false statement. Newton's first law says that if the net force on an object is zero, the object stays in UNIFORM MOTION. That means it keeps moving at a constant speed, in a straight line. It can certainly have some speed, in some direction, but without any net force, they CAN'T CHANGE.
Answer with Explanation:
We are given that
A.Mass,m=12 kg


Speed,v=1.5m/s
Net force in x direction must be zero



Net force in y direction








Power,P=Fv

Where 
B.Substitute the values


Answer:
A star with 15 solar masses is too big to be a main-sequence star.
Answer:
Decrease
Explanation:
If you were on the Moon, which has significantly less mass than the Earth, your weight would: decrease
The point that seemed to be giving me a complicated time was being able to distinguish the difference and meaning of weight and mass and being able to apply that to a problem. I kept mixing up the definitions. For example in homework 3.1, one question asked:
If you were on the moon, which has significantly less mass than the earth, your mass would:
a. increase
b. decrease
c. stay the same
d. become zero
The definition of mass is the amount of matter in an object. The definition of weight is the amount or unit of force. For me, I just had to remember that when it asked about weight, it wasn’t referring how heavy an object is. After I was able to recognize that when it came to weight, questions became easier.
The final and correct answer was decreasing. The answer is because the Moon’s mass is less. This means the gravitational force is less on your body, therefore, your mass is going to be lighter
