Answer:

The reason why one cannot hear in space but light can be seen is because light and sound are different kinds of wave

Light is an electromagnetic wave that propagates by a changing magnetic field hat creates a changing electric field. Light is created by a vibrating electric charge, and is transmitted through a medium by the absorption and reemission of the light by the medium particles

Sound is a longitudinal mechanical wave that is propagated by the vibration of the particles of the medium.

Sound requires a medium to propagate and it cannot be propagated or heard through space which is a vacuum.

Sound is created by a source that is vibrating and the vibration is transmitted to particles in the medium including solids, liquids, gases and plasma that the vibrating energy is in direct contact with and the transfer of the sound energy continues between layers of adjacent particles for the medium for the sound to be propagated from place to place

At the surface of Jupiter's moon Io, the acceleration due to gravity is 1.81m/s2 . A watermelon has a weight of 58.0N at the sur
kvasek [131]

Answer: A) mass on earth surface = 5.91kg

B) mass on surface of jupiter = 5.91kg

C) weight on surface of jupiter = 10.697N

Explanation:

The relationship between weight (W), mass (m) and acceleration due gravity (g) is given below

W=mg

From the question, g= 9.8m/s² and weight on the surface on the earth is 58N

A) The mass of watermelon on earth is

m = 58/ 9.8 = 5.91kg

B) the mass of the watermelon on jupiter is 5.91kg.

You will notice this is the same as the mass of watermelon on earth and that is so because mass is a scalar quantity that does not depends on the distance away from the center of the earth (unlike weight which is a vector) thus making it constant all through any location.

C) mass of watermelon is 5.91kg, g=9.8m/s² weight of watermelon on jupiter is given below as

W = mg

W = 5.91 x 9.8

= 10.697N.

You throw a glob of putty straight up toward the ceiling, which is 3.60 m above the point where the putty leaves your hand. The
Sliva [168]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Height of ceiling is h=3.6\ m

Initial speed of Putty u=9.5\ m/s

Speed of Putty just before it strike the ceiling is given by

v^2-u^2=2as

where v=final velocity

u=initial velocity

a=acceleration

s=displacement

v^2-9.5^2=2\times (-9.8)\times 3.6

v^2=19.69

v=4.43\ m/s

time taken by putty to reach the ceiling

v=u+at

4.43=9.5-9.8\times t

t=\frac{5.07}{9.8}

t=0.517\ s
