Field strength =force/unit mass
= 14.8N/ 4kg = 3.7N/kg

Answer:

The gravitational field strength on Mars is 3.7 N/kg.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the object, m = 4 kg

Weight of the object on Mars, F = W = 14.8 N

We need to find the gravitational field strength on Mars. It is given by gravitational force per unit mass of an object. Mathematically, it is given by

$G=\dfrac{F}{m}$

$G=\dfrac{14.8\ N}{4\ kg}$

G = 3.7 N/kg

So, the gravitational field strength on Mars is 3.7 N/kg. Hence, this is the required solution.

I):final velocity=initial velocity+acceleration due to gravity*time of travel

Therefore,
v=0+9.8*3.1
=30.38 m/s

If by floor you meant water bed then i think there isn't enough info in the question.

A runaway railroad car, with mass 30x10^4 kg, coasts across a level track at 2.0 m/s when it collides with a spring loaded bumpe

Answer:

0.775 m

Explanation:

As the car collides with the bumper, all the kinetic energy of the car (K) is converted into elastic potential energy of the bumper (U):

$U=K\\frac{1}{2}kx^2 = \frac{1}{2}mv^2$
