To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to acceleration due to gravity, as well as Newton's second law that describes the weight based on its mass and the acceleration of the celestial body on which it depends.

In other words the acceleration can be described as

a = \frac{GM}{r^2}

Where

G = Gravitational Universal Constant

M = Mass of Earth

r = Radius of Earth

This equation can be differentiated with respect to the radius of change, that is

\frac{da}{dr} = -2\frac{GM}{r^3}

da = -2\frac{GM}{r^3}dr

At the same time since Newton's second law we know that:

F_w = ma

Where,

m = mass

a =Acceleration

From the previous value given for acceleration we have to

F_W = m (\frac{GM}{r^2} ) = 600N

Finally to find the change in weight it is necessary to differentiate the Force with respect to the acceleration, then:

dF_W = mda

dF_W = m(-2\frac{GM}{r^3}dr)

dF_W = -2(m\frac{GM}{r^2})(\frac{dr}{r})

dF_W = -2F_W(\frac{dr}{r})

But we know that the total weight (F_W) is equivalent to 600N, and that the change during each mile in kilometers is 1.6km or 1600m therefore:

dF_W = -2(600)(\frac{1.6*10^3}{6.37*10^6})

dF_W = -0.3N

Therefore there is a weight loss of 0.3N every kilometer.

It asks for the “Total Mass” basically asking to add, If you add 20 to 125, you get 145! Correct me if im wrong

Which statement describes a digital signal?
hoa [83]

Answer:

"It is made of numbers" describes the digital signal.

Explanation:

The digital signal are the electrical signal which is translated into the pattern of bits. The digital signal are always discrete value in every sampling point. The conversion of the programming into the stream or the binary sequence like 0s and 1s. The digital signals never gets weaken over distance but the analog signal gets weakened or impair at distance. The digital signals are consists of one or two value, Timing graph are square waves.

Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

Saturn's differential rotation will cause the length of a day measures to be longer by 0.4 hours

Explanation:

Differential rotation occurs due to the difference in angular velocities of an object as we move along the latitude of the or as we move into different depth of the object, indicating the observed object is in a fluid form

Saturn made almost completely of gas and has differential motion given as follows

Rotation at the equator = 10 hours 14 minutes

Rotation at high altitude = 10 hours 38 minutes

Therefore;

The differential rotation = 10 hours 38 minutes - 10 hours 14 minutes

The differential rotation = 24 minutes = 24 minutes × 1 hour/(60 minutes) = 0.4 hours

The differential rotation = 0.4 hours

Therefore, the measured day at the higher altitude will be 0.4 longer than at the equator.
