Recall that weight is a force and is equal to m*g, where g is the acceleration due to gravity exerted by the Earth near the Eart

h's surface. The acceleration due to gravity exerted by the moon near the moon's surface is 16.6% that of Earth. What is the weight (in N) of a person with a mass of 77.1 kg on the moon?

serg [2593]
The answer is 9938.8 km. Explanation: 1 pound-force = 4.48 N. Hence, 30.0 pounds-force = 134.4 N. The gravitational force between Earth and an object on its surface is defined by: Where M denotes Earth’s mass, m is the object's mass, and R represents the Earth's radius (6371 km). To determine height (h) above Earth's surface, we compare ratios. Ultimately, Pete's weight would be 30 pounds at a height of 9938.8 km from the Earth's surface.

A water jet that leaves a nozzle at 60 m/s at a flow rate of 120 kg/s is to be used to generate power by striking the buckets lo
Ostrovityanka [2204]

Response:

216000 W or 216 kW

Details:

Power: This refers to the rate at which energy is utilized or consumed. The standard unit for power is the Watt (W).

In general,

Power = Energy/time

P = E/t........................ Equation 1.

However,

E = 1/2mv²..................... Equation 2

with m representing mass, and v indicating velocity.

Substituting equation 2 into equation 1,

P = 1/2mv²/t...................... Equation 3

Assuming flow rate (Q) = m/t,

Q = m/t................ Equation 4

Insert equation 4 into equation 3,

P = Qv²/2........................ Equation 5

Where Q stands for flow rate, v is velocity, and P denotes power.

Given: Q = 120 kg/s, v = 60 m/s

Plug these values into equation 5,

P = 120(60)²/2

P = 60(60)²

P = 60×3600

P = 216000 W.

Thus, the potential power generation of the water jet is 216000 W or 216 kW.

serg [2593]
The duration required for the seventh car to pass amounts to 13.2 seconds. The train's movement is characterized by uniform acceleration, enabling the application of suvat equations. Initially, we analyze the movement of the first car, utilizing the equation for distance s covered in time t, which corresponds to the length of one car, with u = 0 as the initial velocity and a representing acceleration, over t = 5.0 s. We can rearrange the equation reflecting L as the length of one car. This is similarly applicable for the initial seven cars, accounting for the distance of 7L and the required time t'. With constant acceleration retained, we can derive t' through substitution in the equation, leading to fundamental conclusions regarding the relationship exhibited in the graph of distance against time in uniformly accelerated motion.

A hot air balloon of total mass M (including passengers and luggage) is moving with a downward acceleration of magnitude a. As i
inna [2205]

Answer:

The ratio of mass that is discarded is determined by this equation:

M - m = (3a/2)/(g²- (a²/2) - (ag/2))

Explanation:

The force acting on an object in motion is defined by the equation:

F = ma

Additionally, there is a gravitational force consistently acting downwards on the object, defined as g = 9.8 ms⁻²

For convenience, we will utilize a positive notation for downward acceleration and a negative notation for upward acceleration.

Case 1:

The hot air balloon has mass = M

Acceleration = a

Upward thrust from hot air = F = constant

Gravitational force acting downward = Mg

The net force on the balloon can be expressed as:

Ma = Gravitational force - Upward Force                              

Ma = Mg - F                      (since the balloon moves downward, that means Mg > F)

F = Mg - Ma

F = M (g-a)

M = F/(g-a)

Case 2:

After releasing the ballast, the new mass becomes m. The new upward acceleration is -a/2:

The net force is expressed as:

-m(a/2) = mg - F        (The balloon is moving upwards, hence F > mg)

F = mg + m(a/2)

F = m(g + (a/2))

m = F/(g + (a/2))

Determining the fraction of the mass initially dropped:

M-m = \frac{F}{g-a} - \frac{F}{g+\frac{a}{2} }\\M-m = F*[\frac{1}{g-a} - \frac{1}{g+\frac{a}{2} }]\\M-m = F*[\frac{(g+(a/2)) - (g-a)}{(g-a)(g+(a/2))} ]\\M-m = F*[\frac{g+(a/2) - g + a)}{(g-a)(g+(a/2))} ]\\M-m = F*[\frac{(3a/2)}{g^{2}-\frac{a^{2}}{2}-\frac{ag}{2}} ]
