Here's the part you need to know:
(Weight of anything) =
(the thing's mass)
times
(acceleration of gravity in the place where the thing is) .
Weight = (mass ) x (gravity) .
That's always true everywhere.
You should memorize it.
For the astronaut on Saturn . . .
Weight = (mass ) x (gravity) .
Weight = (68 kg) x (10.44 m/s²)
= 709.92 newtons .
__________________________________
On Earth, gravity is only 9.8 m/s².
So as long as the astronaut is on Earth, his weight is only
(68 kg) x (9.8 m/s²)
= 666.4 newtons .
Notice that his mass is his mass ... it doesn't change
no matter where he goes.
But his weight changes in different places, because
it depends on the gravity in each place.
Answer:
A. the total net force is 14
B. the total net force is 15
Explanation:
Answer:
It can be seen from the operation of pin-hole camera, formation of shadows and eclipse.
Explanation:
The phenomenon of light traveling in a straight line is known as rectilinear propagation of light.
One this evidence can be seen from the operation of pin-hole camera, which depends on rectilinear propagation of light
Also two natural effects that result from the rectilinear propagation of light are the formation of Shadows and Eclipse.
Answer:
f = 878,080 N
Explanation:
mass of pile driver (m) = 2100 kg
distance of pile driver to steel beam (s) = 5 m
depth of steel driven (d) = 12 cm = 0.12 m
acceleration due to gravity (g0 = 9.8 m/s^{2}
calculate the average force exerted on the pile driver by the beam.
- from work done = force x distance
- work done = change in potential energy of the pile driver
- equating the two equations above we have
force x distance = m x g x (s - d)
f x 0.12 = 2100 x 9.8 x (5- (-0.12))
d = - 0.12 because the steel beam went down at we are taking its
initial position to be an origin point which is 0
f = ( 2100 x 9.8 x (5- (-0.12)) ) ÷ 0.12
f = 878,080 N
