What happen to the weight of a body when it is falling freely under the action of gravity?

Physics
1 answer:
mr Goodwill [35]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Explanation:

where W-weight, m-mass of the object and g-acceleration produced due to the earth's gravity. ... This happens because the normal reaction force exerted on the object in the lift is equal to zero, and normal force equals to mg, which in turn equals the weight of the object.

Platinum has a density of 21.4 g/cm3. if thieves were to steal platinum from a bank using a small truck with a maximum payload o
slega [8]
We will convert the 1dm3 in terms of cm3 as follows:

1dm^3 = (10 cm)^3
= 1000 cm^3

The mass of platinum is equal to 900 lb. 
Then we will convert the mass in terms of grams as follows:
1 lb = 453.6 g
900 = 900 x 453.6 g
= 408240 g

Then density of platinum is equal to 21.4 g/cm^3 
We will calculate the volume of platinum in mass 408240 g as follows:
Volume of platinum = mass of platinum / density of platinum
= 408240 g / 21.4 g/cm^3 
= 19076.6 cm^3  

The total volume of platinum is 19076.6 cm^3
The volume of platinum in 1 L bar is 1000cm^3
So, to calculate the number of bars we will use the formula as follows;
Number of bars = volume of platinum available / volume of platinum required in 1 L bar
= 19076.6 cm^3 / 1000 cm^3
= 19
So, the number of bars are 19.

A 77.0−kg short-track ice skater is racing at a speed of 12.6 m/s when he falls down and slides across the ice into a padded wal
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

-6112.26  J

Explanation:

The initial kinetic energy, KE_i is given by

KE_i=0.5mv_1^{2} where m is the mass of a body and v_i is the initial velocity

The final kinetic energy, KE_f is given by

KE_f=0.5mv_f^{2} where v_f is the final velocity

Change in kinetic energy, \triangle KE is given by

\triangle KE=KE_f-KE_i=0.5mv_f^{2}-0.5mv_1^{2}=0.5m(v_f^{2}-v_i^{2})

Since the skater finally comes to rest, the final velocity is zero. Substituting 0 for v_f and 12.6 m/s for v_i and 77 Kg for m we obtain

\triangle KE=0.5*77*0^{2}-0.5*77*(0^{2}-12.6^{2})=-6112.26 J

From work energy theorem, work done by a force is equal to the change in kinetic energy hence for this case work done equals <u>-6112.26  J</u>
