Answer:

0.1962N.

Explanation:

Weight is a force, so we use newtons second law which states F=ma. So the weight of a watermelon on earth is 2kg x 9.81m/s², which is 19.62N (newtons). On the moon it weighs 2 x 1.63 which is 3.26N.

The weight of the pen is 0.02 x 9.81, which is 0.1962N. If the pen is not to fall the frictional force needs to be equal to this force,

so the answer is 0.1962N.

(Hope this helps can I pls have brainlist (crown)☺️)

Suppose a free-fall ride at an amusement park starts at rest and is in free fall. What is the velocity of the ride after 2.3 s?
horsena [70]

Answer:

V = a * t = 9.8 m/s^2 * 2.3 s = 22.5 m/s   velocity after 2.3 s

S = 1/2 g t^2      since initial speed is zero

S = 1/2 * 9.8 m/s^2 * 5.29 s^2 = 25.9 m
