Answer:

a. 6.04 m/s^2 (3 sig. fig.) b.  T = 30.2 N

Explanation:

a) Assume that the acceleration due to gravity is 9.81 m/s^2 downwards

8x9.81 = (5+8)a

a = 6.04 m/s^2 (3 sig. fig.)

b) Using the results from (a)

   T = 5(6.04)

   T = 30.2 N

Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

F - M a      force exerted by scales on student

M a = M (9.8 + 4.9) m/s^2      upwards chosen as positive

a = 1.5 g        net acceleration of student  due to force of scales

W =M g       weight of student   (actual weight)

Wapp = M 1.5 * g      apparent weight (on scales) of student

What is the difference in the speed of the generator with a small magnet and a generator with a large magnet?
Delvig [45]
With a small magnet with a generator it will be taken up quickly because how small it is while with a big generator it would take more force for it for the generator to attach because the larger the magnet that heavier it will be because it is attached to the North Pole magnet

Which theory suggests that the moon and the earth formed at the same time from dust and the solar nebula that formed the sun?
ad-work [718]

Answer: The correct answer is option(B.).

Explanation:

The co-formation theory explain that both moon and the earth are formed at same time from the primitive solar nebula (cloud made up of dust and gases)  at the same and same place.

Where as capture theory suggests that the moon is an asteroid which was formed or created somewhere else in a solar system. And when the moon approached the earth planet it got captured by the earth's gravitational field.

Impact theory explains the formation of moon by the catastrophic collision between the earth and any planet half the size of earth's size.

Synchronous theory sheds the light on the rotation time, revolution time and sides of moon located from the surface of the earth.

Hence, the correct answer is option(B).
