The acceleration due to gravity on the Moon's surface is known to be about one-sixth of the acceleration due to gravity on the Earth.
A rock falls under a gravitational force of 16.3 N on the moon.
Please help me figure out the mass of the rock.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The mass of the rock is approximately 9.97 kg

Explanation:

From the question, we have;

The acceleration due to gravity on the Moon = (1/6) × The acceleration due to gravity on the Earth

The gravitational force under which a rock falls on the Moon = 16.3 N

The acceleration due to gravity on Earth, g ≈ 9.81 m/s²

Therefore, the acceleration due to gravity on the Moon, a = (1/6) × 9.81 m/s² ≈ 1.635 m/s²

The relationship between the force with which the rock falls and the acceleration of the motion resulting in the force is given by the following relationship;

F = m × a

Where;

F = The force = 16.3 N

m = The mass of the object acted on by the force = The mass of the rock

a = The acceleration of the motion of the object = 1.635 m/s²

From F = m × a, we have;

m = F/a

∴ m = 16.3 N/(1.635 m/s²) = 9.96941896 kg

The mass of the rock, m ≈ 9.97 kg.

1. What is the distance between successive crests of the wave ?
2. What is the speed of propagation ?
3 What is the period of the wave ?

Please show workings.​

Answers

The distance between successive crests (or successive troughs) is defined as the wavelength. The time elapsed between the crossings of two successive crests through a given point is the period of the wave.The Velocity of propagation (Vp) of a cable is the speed at which an electrical signal can propagate through the cable in comparison to the speed of light. For example, in a vacuum, the velocity of propagation would be 100% or 1 (depending on how it is represented).The wave period is the time it takes to complete one cycle. The standard unit of a wave period is in seconds, and it is inversely proportional to the frequency of a wave, which is the number of cycles of waves that occur in one second.

A 12.0 volt battery is connected in a series to 4 identical 5.00 ohm resistors connected in parallel to each other. What is the current through the battery?

Answers

Answer:

9.6 Amperes

Explanation:

since the resistors are connected in parallel connection the equivalent resistance is

1/R = 1 /5 + 1/5 + 1/5 + 1/5

solving for R we get 5/4 ohms

then from V=IR

I = V/R

I=12/(5/4)

hence I= 9.6 Amperes

A 12.0-volt battery is connected in a series, then the current through the battery is 9.6 A.

What are Resistors?

Electrical resistance is implemented as a circuit element by resistors, which are passive two-terminal electrical components. Resistors are devices that are used in electronic circuits for a variety of purposes, including lowering current flow, adjusting signal levels, dividing voltages, biasing active components, and terminating transmission lines.

As part of motor controllers, power distribution systems, or as test loads for generators, high-power resistors that can dissipate many watts of electrical energy as heat may be used.

According to the question,

1/R = 1 /5 + 1/5 + 1/5 + 1/5

R = 5/4 ohms

By ohm's law,

V=IR

I = V/R

I=12/(5/4)

I= 9.6 Amperes

A truck with a mass of 15,000 kg moving at 25 m/s crashes into the back of a small 1,100 kg car moving at 15 m/s. They
stick together after the collision. Calculate the momentum of the system before the collision and after the collision.

Answers

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of a truck = 15,000 kg

Speed of the truck = 25 m/s

Mass of car = 1,100 kg

Speed of the car = 15 m/s

As they stick together after the collision. Let V be the speed after the collision.

Initial momentum of the system,

[tex]P_i=15000\times25+1100\times15\\\\=391500\ kg-m/s[/tex]

Final momentum of the system,

[tex]P_f=(15000+1100)V\\\\=16100V[/tex]

Hence, this is the required solution.

A plane is flying with an airspeed of 190 miles per hour and heading 150°. The wind currents are running at 30 miles per hour at 170° clockwise from due north. Use vectors to find the true course and ground speed of the plane. (Round your answers to the nearest ten for the speed and to the nearest whole number for the angle.)

Answers

Answer:

[tex]Vg=200mile/hr[/tex]

[tex]\theta=153 \textdegree[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Plane airspeed [tex]v_p=190mil/h[/tex]

Plane direction [tex]\angle=150 \textdegree[/tex]

Wind current speed [tex]V_w=30mil/h[/tex]

Wind direction [tex]\angle=150 \textdegree[/tex]

Generally the vector form of the forces is mathematically given by

For plane

[tex]\angle Q_p=90-150 \textdegree[/tex]

[tex]V_p=170(cos60 \textdegree ,sin60 \textdegree)[/tex]

[tex]V_p=(85,-147.224)[/tex]

For wind

[tex]\angle Q_w=90-170 \textdegree[/tex]

[tex]V_w=30(cos-80 \textdegree ,sin-80 \textdegree)[/tex]

[tex]V_w=(5.2,-29.54)[/tex]

Generally the equation for resultant force is mathematically given by

[tex]v_r=V_a+V_w[/tex]

[tex]v_r=(85,-147.224)+(5.2,-29.54)[/tex]

[tex]v_r=(90.21,-176.76)[/tex]

[tex]v_r=198.45\angle -63[/tex]

Therefore ground speed

What would your life look like if you had to use only analog signals?

Answers

like a black cloud

Explanation:

Define: Signals

Before going too much further, we should talk a bit about what a signal actually is, electronic signals specifically (as opposed to traffic signals, albums by the ultimate power-trio, or a general means for communication). When one speaks of analog one often means an electrical context, however mechanical, pneumatic, hydraulic, and other systems may also convey analog signals.

An analog signal uses some property of the medium to convey the signal's information. Any information may be conveyed by an analog signal, often such a signal is a measured change in physical phenomena, such as sound, light, temperature, position, or pressure.

For example, in sound recording, changes in air pressure (that is to say, sound) strike the diaphragm of a microphone which causes related changes in a voltage or the current in an electric circuit. The voltage or the current is said to be an "analog" of the sound.

Calculate the refractive index for a substance where the angle of incidence is 300 , the angle of refraction is 600 , and the refractive index of second substance is 1.5

Answers

Answer:

η₁ = 2.6

Explanation:

Here, we will use snell's law to calculate the refractive of the substance:

[tex]\frac{\eta_2}{\eta_1} = \frac{Sin\theta_1}{Sin\theta_2}[/tex]

where,

η₁ = refractive index of first substance = ?

η₂ = refractive index of second substance = 1.5

θ₁ = angle of incidence = 30°

θ₂ = angle of refraction = 60°

Therefore,

[tex]\frac{1.5}{\eta_1} = \frac{Sin\ 30^0}{Sin\ 60^0}[/tex]

η₁ = 2.6
