Answer:

Newton

Explanation:

The earth attracts every body towards its centre. The force with which the earth attracts any body towards its centre, is called its weight.

It is a vector quantity.

It always acts towards the centre of earth.

The SI unit of Newton.

consider the photoelectric effect experiment. in one experiment yellow light shines on a piece of potassium metal. a current is

kompoz [17]

Explanation:

If the intensity of the yellow light increased, meaning more photons will strike the Potassium metal per unit area. This will cause more ejection of electrons from the metal and hence, the strength of current will also increase as we know that

I = Q/t, as the charge increase , the current will also increase.

A ball of mass 2 kg is kept on the hill of height 3 km. Calculate the potential energy possessed by it ?

zysi [14]

We know that -

$P.E=m*g*h$

Where,

$m = mass$

$g = acceleration$ $due$ $to$ $gravity$

$h=height$

First we convert height into meters.

1 km = 1000 meters

3 km = 1000 * 3 meters = 3000 meters

So, putting the values in the above formula, and by taking 'g' = 9.8 m/s², we get-

$P.E.= 2*3000*9.8$

$P.E.= 58800$ $Joules$

$P.E.= 58.8$ $kJ$

1. A car starting from rest accelerates uniformly at 3

amid [387]

The car's final speed in m/s after the acceleration is 30.

Given the following data:

Initial velocity, U = 0 m/s (since the cars starts from rest)

Time, t = 10 seconds

Acceleration, a = 3 meter per seconds square.

To find the car's final speed in m/s after the acceleration, we would use the first equation of motion;

Mathematically, the first equation of motion is given by the formula;

$V = U + at\\\\V = 0 + 3(10)$

Final speed, V = 30 m/s

Therefore, the car's final speed in m/s after the acceleration is 30.
