which of the following statements about mass and weight is correct?
A. "Mass" is the scientific term for "weight''
B. Weight directly measures force while mass directly measures amount of matter.
C. Weight has unit of kilograms or grams. Mass has unit of newtons.
D. The mass of an object depends on the size of the object. The weight of an object dosent depend on the size of the object.

Answers

Answer 1

The correct answer is B. Weight directly measures force while mass directly measures the amount of matter.

Explanation:

Weight and mass are two related but not identical concepts. The first term "mass" can be found by measuring the amount of matter in a body or substance. For example, the mass in an apple is around 80 grams depending on its size. In this context, mass is measured using units such as grams or kilograms. On the other hand, weight considers not only the matter in an object but the force exerted in it, especially, the gravitational force. In the case of the apple, the weight is 1 N as newtons (N) are used to measure force and this is the result of multiplying the mass by gravity. According to this, option B is correct.

a 45 kg girl is bouncing on a trampoline. during a certain interval after she leaves t he surface of the trampoline, her kinetic energy decreases to 220 J from 420 J. how high does she rise during this interval neglect air resistance

Answers

Answer: Height = 0.45m

Explanation:

According to the conservation of energy, When there are no interactions outside a system ie  neglecting air resistance,The change in kinetic energy is equal to the change in potential energy in a closed system.

Therefore the kinetic energy decrease, the potential energy increases, and  decreases for increase in Kinetic energy

an is represented by the formulae

ΔKinetic energy + ΔPotential energy = 0

ΔKinetic energy = -ΔPotential energy ( where negative sign represent decrease as kinetic energy increases.

ΔK.E=ΔP.E

420J- 220J= mgh

mass = 45kg

g =gravitational acceleration =9.8 m/s^2

200J = 45 X 9.8 X h

h = 200/45 x 9.8 /= 0.45m

Find the magnitude of the Sun's gravitational force on the Earth when the Earth is at perihelion and at aphelion. The perihelion and aphelion distances are 1.48 ✕ 1011 m and 1.52 ✕ 1011 m, respectively.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

Force F = GMm / R²

mass of the sun M = 1.99 x 10³⁰ kg

mass of the earth = 5.97 x 10²⁴ kg

value of G = 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹

for perihelion point R = 1.48 x 10¹¹ m

Force = 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ x  1.99 x 10³⁰ x 5.97 x 10²⁴ / ( 1.48 x 10¹¹ )²

= 36.17 x 10²¹ N  

for aphelion point R = 1.52 x 10¹¹ m

Force = 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ x  1.99 x 10³⁰ x 5.97 x 10²⁴ / ( 1.52 x 10¹¹ )²

= 34.29  x 10²¹ N  

A 10-kg object is hanging by a very light wire in an elevator that is traveling upward. The tension in the rope is measured to be 75 N. What are the magnitude and direction of the acceleration of the elevator

Answers

Answer:

2.31m/s² downwards

Explanation:

The sum of forces on the object is expressed as;

T-W

T is the tension on the rope

W is the weight

According yo Newton's second law:

T-W= ma

m is the mass

a is the acceleration

Given

T = 75N

W = mg = 10×9.81

W = 98.1N

Substitute

75-98.1 = 10a

-23.1 = 10a

a = -23.1/10

a = -2.31m/s²

The magnitude of the acceleration is 2.31m/s² and directions is downwards

If a coil stays at rest in a very large static magnetic field, no emf is induced in this coil. Group of answer choices True False

Answers

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Faraday's Law says that there is a emf induced in a conductor when the vector flux of the magnetic field across it changes in time.This can be true due to one of two facts, either the magnitude of the magnetic field changes in time, or the area through which the flux occurs changes due to the movement of the object.In this case, due to the magnetic field is constant, and the coil stays at rest, there is no possible change in flux, so emf induced is zero.

A ball is thrown straight downward with a speed of 0.50 meter per second from a height of 4.0 meters. What is the speed of the ball 0.70 second after it is released? [Neglect friction.]

Answers

Answer:

The speed of the ball is 7.36 m/s

Explanation:

Constant Acceleration Motion

It happens when the velocity of an object changes by an equal amount in every equal period of time.

Being a the constant acceleration, vo the initial speed, vf the final speed, and t the time, the following relation applies:

[tex]v_f=v_o+at[/tex]

Since the situation corresponds to a vertical motion, the acceleration is g=9.8 m/s^2.

The ball is thrown downward at vo=0.5 m/s. Its speed at t=0.7 seconds is

[tex]v_f=0.5+9.8\cdot 0.7[/tex]

[tex]v_f=7.36\ m/s[/tex]

The speed of the ball is 7.36 m/s

Note: There is no use of the height it was released from

A 0.414 kg object is at rest at the origin of a coordinate system. A 2.08 N force in the positive x direction acts on the object for 1.57 s. What is the velocity at the end of this interval

Answers

Answer:

The value is [tex]v = 7.89 \ m/s[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The mass  of the object is [tex]m = 0.414 \ kg[/tex]

   The force is [tex]F = 2.08 \ N[/tex]

  The time taken is  [tex]t = 1.57 \ s[/tex]

Generally the force acting on the object according to Newton's second law is

        [tex]F = \frac{ m (v -u )}{t}[/tex]

=>     [tex]v = \frac{F * t}{m} + u[/tex]

Here u is the initial velocity with value  0 m/s since the object was initially at rest

        [tex]v = \frac{2.08 * .57}{0.414 } + 0[/tex]

     [tex]v = 7.89 \ m/s[/tex]

How much time is required for an airplane to reach its takeoff speed of 77m/a if it starts from rest and its average acceleration is 8.2m/s^2?

Answers

Answer:

The time required is t = 9.39 [s]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use the following equation of kinematics.

[tex]v_{f}=v_{o} +(a*t)[/tex]

where:

Vf = final velocity = 77 [m/s]

Vo = initial velocity = 0

a = acceleration = 8.2 [m/s²]

t = time [s]

The initial speed is zero, since the airplane begins its movement from rest. The initial speed is zero, since the aircraft begins its movement from rest. Another important fact is that the sign of acceleration is positive since the plane is accelerating, that is, its speed is increasing.

Now replacing:

77 = 0 + (8.2*t)

t = 9.39 [s]

Answers

Answer:

The breaking strength of the string is 717.19 N

Explanation:

Given;

initial tension on the string, T₁ = 53.9 N

initial radius of the string, r₁ = 2.59 m

initial speed of the rock, v₁ = 21.8 m/s

final radius of the string, r₂ = 1.23 m

final speed of the rock, v₂ = 54.8 m/s

the final tension on the string = breaking strength, T₂ = ?

Apply centripetal force equation due to inward motion;

A hopper jumps straight up to a height of 0.45 m. With what velocity will it return to the table?

Answers

Answer:

3 m/s

Explanation:

We can solve with kinematics or with energy.

Using kinematics, and taking down to be positive, we're given:

Δy = 0.45 m

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = 10 m/s²

Find: v

v² = v₀² + 2aΔy

v² = (0 m/s)² + 2 (10 m/s²) (0.45 m)

v = 3 m/s

Or, we can use energy.

PE = KE

mgh = ½ mv²

v = √(2gh)

v = √(2 × 10 m/s² × 0.45 m)

v = 3 m/s

Problem 9.20 A sphere of uniform density with mass 18 kg and radius 0.8 m is spinning, making one complete revolution every 0.4 s. The center of mass of the sphere has a speed of 8 m/s. (a) What is the rotational kinetic energy of the sphere

Answers

Answer:

K = 567.91 J

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of sphere, m = 18 kg

Radius of a sphere, r = 0.8 m

It makes one complete revolution every 0.4 s.

The speed of center of mass of the sphere is 8 m/s

We need to find the rotational kinetic energy of the sphere. It is given by the formula as follows :

[tex]K=\dfrac{1}{2}I\omega^2[/tex]

I is moment of inertia,

[tex]I=\dfrac{2}{5}mr^2\\\\I=\dfrac{2}{5}\times 18\times (0.8)^2\\\\I=4.608\ kg-m^2[/tex]

[tex]\omega[/tex] is angular speed

[tex]\omega=\dfrac{2\pi }{0.4}\\\\=15.7\ rad/s[/tex]

So,

[tex]K=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 4.608\times (15.7)^2\\\\K=567.91\ J[/tex]

So, the rotational kinetic energy of the sphere is 567.91 J.

The rotational kinetic energy of the sphere is 710.8 J.

Moment of inertia of the sphere

I = ¹/₂mr²

I = 0.5 x 18 x (0.8)²

I = 5.76 kgm²

Angular speed of the sphere

ω = 2πf

ω = 2π x (1/0.4s)

ω = 15.71 rad/s

Rotational kinetic energy

K.E = ¹/₂Iω²

K.E = 0.5 x (5.76) x (15.71)²

K.E = 710.8 J

Thus, the rotational kinetic energy of the sphere is 710.8 J.

Answer:

a = - 1 [m/s²]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use the following equation of kinematics.

[tex]v_{f} = v_{o} +(a*t)[/tex]

where:

Vf = final velocity = 0 (velocity at 10 seconds)

Vo = initial velocity = 4 [m/s]

a = desacceleration [m/s²]

t = time = 4 [s]

From the graph, we can deduce that between the second 10 and the second 6 there are (10-6) = 4 seconds difference.

In the second 6, the velocity is 4 [m/s]

0 = 4 + (a*4)

4*a = -4

a = - 1 [m/s²]

For a smooth sphere with a 11 cm diameter thrown through air (air density of 1.25 kg/m3, air viscosity 1.83*10-5 Pa-s), what is the speed (in cm/s) when the Reynolds number is 2,511

Answers

Answer:

u = 0.334 m/s

Explanation:

The formula for Reynold's number is given as follows:

Re = ρuL/μ

where,

Re = Reynold's Number = 2511

ρ = Density of air = 1.25 kg/m³

μ = Dynamic Viscosity of Air = 1.83 x 10⁻⁵ Pa.s

L = Characteristic Length = Diameter of Sphere = 11 cm = 0.11 m

u = Speed = ?

Therefore,

2511 = (1.25 kg/m³)(u)(0.11 m)/(1.83 x 10⁻⁵ Pa.s)

u = (2511)/(7513.66 s/m)

u = 0.334 m/s

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

According to law of conservation of momentum

(m1+m2)v = m1u1+m2u2

Let m1 and m2 be the masses

u1 and u2 be their respective velocities

v is the velocity of combined objects

Given

m1 =60kg

m2 = 40kg

v =0 m/s

u2 -  u1 = 60 ............ 1

0 = 60u1 + 40u2 = 0 .......... 2

From 1: u2 = 60+u1

Substitute into 2:

60u1 + 40(60+u1) = 0

60u1 +2400 +40u1 = 0

100u1 = -2400

u1 = -2400/100

u1 = -24m/s

Hence the speed of the 60 kg mass is 24m/s (in the negative direction)
