What is the Force of Gravity of a 40 kg object on Earth?

1 answer:

7 0

Gravity on Earth pulls objects to the center of the Earth about 9.8 meters per second per second. The child's mass on the moon or at a space station is 40 kg. The child's weight at these places changes because gravity is different at these locations.

Answer: 49.5 m

Explanation:

The speed of sound $s$ is given by a relation between the distance $d$ and the time $t$ :

$s=\frac{d}{t}$ (1)

Where:

$s=330 m/s$ is the speed of sound in air (taking into account this value may vary according to the medium the sound wave travels)

$d=412.5 m-x$ since we are told th hunter was initially 412.5 meters from the cliff and then moves a distance $x$ towards the cliff

$t=\frac{2.2 s}{2}=1.1 s$ Since the time given as data (2.2 s) is the time it takes to the sound wave to travel from the hunter's gun and then go back to the position where the hunter is after being reflected by the cliff
