c. The weight of an object on the moon will be the same as its weight on Earth. It is false because the weight of an on the moon will be 1/6 th times its weight on Earth.
d. The weight of an object is its mass multiplied by the force of gravity. The statement is false because the formula of weight is mass × acceleration due to gravity, not force of gravity.
e. The mass and weight of an object are the same thing. The statement is false because mass means a body of matter. While weight of an object is its mass multiplied by the force of gravity.
f. The mass of an object is the force of gravity acting upon an object. It is false because it will be the weight of the object not mass.
So, the answers are c, d, e and f.

Hope you could understand.

Help with the number 2 question

MArishka [77]

Answer:

It is frequently stated that the value of the acceleration due to gravity at the pole is larger than at the equator because the poles are closer to the center of the earth due to the earth's oblateness. ... The measured value is larger because the earth's density is not uniform but increases toward the center.

A man is standing on the edge of a 20.0 m high cliff. He throws a rock horizontally with an initial velocity of 10.0 m/s.

kherson [118]

Answer:

<em>a. The rock takes 2.02 seconds to hit the ground</em>

<em>b. The rock lands at 20,2 m from the base of the cliff</em>

Explanation:

Horizontal motion occurs when an object is thrown horizontally with an initial speed v from a height h above the ground. When it happens, the object moves through a curved path determined by gravity until it hits the ground.

The time taken by the object to hit the ground is calculated by:

$\displaystyle t=\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}}$

The range is defined as the maximum horizontal distance traveled by the object and it can be calculated as follows:

$\displaystyle d=v.t$

The man is standing on the edge of the h=20 m cliff and throws a rock with a horizontal speed of v=10 m/s.

The time taken by the rock to reach the ground is:

$\displaystyle t=\sqrt{\frac{2*20}{9.8}}$

$\displaystyle t=\sqrt{4.0816}$

t = 2.02 s

The rock takes 2.02 seconds to hit the ground

The range is calculated now:

$\displaystyle d=10\cdot 2.02$

d = 20.2 m

The rock lands at 20,2 m from the base of the cliff

What is the kinetic energy of a vehicle that has a mass of 3,500 kg and is moving at 40 m/s

stiv31 [10]

Answer:2800000j

Explanation:

For us to know the kinetic energy of the vehicle,

Where m is the mass

And v is the velocity

Then, K.E=1/2mv^2

While, K.E=1/2×3500×40^2

Therefore, our answer will now be

K.E=2800000j

A 300 g glass thermometer initially at 23 ◦C is put into 236 cm3 of hot water at 87 ◦C. Find the final temperature of the thermo

DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

$74^{\circ} C$

Explanation:

We are given that

Mass of glass, $m=300 g$

$T_1=23^{\circ}$

Volume, $V=236cm^3$

Mass of water= $density\times volume=1\times 236=236 g$

Density of water= $1g/cm^3$

Temperature of hot water, $T=87^{\circ}$

Specific heat of glass, $C_g=0.2cal/g^{\circ}C$

Specific heat of water, $C_w=1 cal/g^{\circ}C$

$Q_{glass}=m_gC_g(T_f-T_1)=300\times 0.2(T_f-23)$

$Q_{water}=m_wC_w(T_f-T)=236\times 1(T_f-87)$

$Q_{glass}+Q_{water}=0$

$300\times 0.2(T_f-23)+236\times 1(T_f-87)$

$60T_f-1380+236T_f-20532=0$

$296T_f=20532+1380=21912$

$T_f=\frac{21912}{296}=74^{\circ} C$

What is static friction?

givi [52]

Answer:

Plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz brainliest

Explanation:

In static friction, the frictional force resists force that is applied to an object, and the object remains at rest until the force of static friction is overcome. In kinetic friction, the frictional force resists the motion of an object. ... The frictional force itself is directed oppositely to the motion of the object.
