The force by which earth attracts anobject is know as weight of that particular object.

so,

=》weight ( F ) = mass ( M ) × acceleration ( A )

=》F = 85 × 9.8

( because acceleration due to gravity = 9.8, but sometimes it is taken as approx 10 )

=》F = 833 Newton.

note : if you take acceleration due to gravity as 10 then the weight of the person = 85 × 10 = 850 N )

i hope it helped.....

What is the velocity of a car that travels -50 meters in 5 seconds then 10 meters in 5 seconds

diamong [38]

Answer:

2 m/s

Explanation:

The first part of the question the car is going in reverse or negative along the x axis. Then the second part the car is moving forward along the x axis. So the car would only have velocity in the current direction of movement. So our equation for velocity is as follows.

v = d/t

v = 10 m/5 s

v = 2 m/s

Two sound waves have equal displacement amplitudes, but wave 1 has two-thirds the frequency of wave 2. What is the ratio of the

zlopas [31]

Answer:

$\dfrac{I_1}{I_2}=\dfrac{4}{9}$

Explanation:

c = Speed of wave

$\rho$ = Density of medium

A = Area

$\nu$ = Frequency

$\nu_1=\dfrac{2}{3}\nu_2$

Intensity of sound is given by

$I=\dfrac{1}{2}\rho c(A\omega)^2\\\Rightarrow I=\dfrac{1}{2}\rho c(A2\pi \nu)^2$

So,

$I\propto \nu^2$

We get

$\dfrac{I_1}{I_2}=\dfrac{\nu_1^2}{\nu_2^2}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{I_1}{I_2}=\dfrac{\dfrac{2}{3}^2\nu_2^2}{\nu_2^2}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{I_1}{I_2}=\dfrac{4}{9}$

The ratio is $\dfrac{I_1}{I_2}=\dfrac{4}{9}$

Akeem is walking on the beach on a hot summer day. The sand is very hot, so he runs and puts his feet in the water, which is muc

Sample Response: The water is cooler than the sand because it has a higher specific heat value. This means that it takes longer for the water to increase in temperature, making it feel cooler than the sand, which warms up more quickly.
