How would the mass and weight of an object on the Moon compare to the mass and weight of the same object on Earth? * Mass and weight would both be less on the Moon. Mass would be the same but its weight would be less on the Moon. Mass would be less on the Moon and its weight would be the same. Mass and weight would both be the same on the Moon.​

Answers

Answer:

B. Mass would be the same but its weight would be less on the Moon.

Explanation:

The mass of a body can be expressed as the quantity of matter it contains. While the weight of a body is the extent of the gravitational force impressed on the body by a massive body.

Thus, the mass of a body is constant either on the Earth or on the Moon. But the weight would be less on the Moon because the gravitational force on the Moon is far less than that on the Earth. Therefore the weight would be less on the Moon.

The appropriate option is B.

The mass will remain same on both moon and Earth, but weight will be lesser on Moon than Earth. Hence, option (B) is correct.

The prime focus to solve this problem is the mass and weight of an object. The mass of a body can be expressed as the quantity of matter it contains. While the weight of a body is the extent of the gravitational force impressed on the body by a massive body.

So, the mass of a body is constant either on the Earth or on the Moon. But the weight of an object will depend on the mass and the gravitational acceleration.

W = mg

Here, W is weight, m is mass and g is gravitational acceleration.

Weight would be less on the Moon because the gravitational force on the Moon is far less (due to lower value of g) than that on the Earth. Therefore the weight would be less on the Moon.

Thus, we can conclude that the mass will remain same on both moon and Earth, but weight will be lesser on Moon than Earth. Hence, option (B) is correct.

On Venus, the atmospheric temperature is a hot 720 K due to the greenhouse effect. It consists mostly of carbon dioxide (molar mass 44 g/mol) and the pressure is 92 atm. What is the total translational kinetic energy of 3 moles of carbon dioxide molecules?

Answers

Answer:

The value is   [tex]E_t = 17958.2 \ J[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The atmospheric temperature is [tex]T_a = 720 \ K[/tex]

       The molar mass of carbon dioxide is  [tex]Z = 44 \ g/mol[/tex]

        The pressure is [tex]P = 92 \ atm =[/tex]

      The number of moles is [tex]n = 3 \ moles[/tex]

Generally the translational kinetic energy is mathematically represented as

        [tex]E_t = \frac{f}{2} * n * R T[/tex]

       Here  R is the gas constant with value  [tex]R = 8.314 J\cdot K^{-1}\cdot mol^{-1}[/tex]

Generally the degree of freedom of carbon dioxide in terms of  translational motion is  f =  3

     So

           [tex]E_t = \frac{ 3}{2} * 2 * 8.314 * 720[/tex]

=>         [tex]E_t = 17958.2 \ J[/tex]

A 2150 kg car, moving east at 10.0 m/s, collides and joins with a 3250 kg car. The cars move east together at 5.22 m/s. What is the 3250 kg car’s initial velocity calculated to the nearest tenth? Record your answer in the boxes below. Be sure to use the correct place value.

Answers

Answer:

2.1 m/s

Explanation:

According to law of conservation of momentum;

m1u1 + m2u2 = (m1+m2)v

m1 and m2 are the masses

u1 and u2 are the initial velocities

v is the common velocity

Given

m1 = 2150kg

m2 = 3250kg

u1 = 10.0m/s

u2 = ?

v = 5.22m/s

Substitute and get u2

2150(10) + 3250u2 = (2150+3250)5.22

21,500 + 3250u2 = 5400(5.22)

3250u2 = 28,188 - 21500

3250u2 = 6688

u2 = 6688/3250

u2 = 2.1 m/s

Hence the 3250 kg car’s initial velocity has an initial velocity of  2.1 m/s

away on the wrench's handle from the bolt (doubling the radius), but applies the same force
as before, how much torque will he now apply?

Answers

Answer:

816

Explanation:

We must remember that torque is defined as the product of a force by a distance.

This distance is measured from the pivot point of the Bolt to the point where the force is applied. in this way, we have the following equation to be able to determine the torque.

[tex]T=F*d[/tex]

Now if we double the turning distance we have the torque should also be double.

A 1 200-kg automobile moving at 25 m/s has the brakes applied with a deceleration of 8.0 m/s2. How far does the car travel before it stops?

Answers

Answer:

Δx = 39.1 m

Explanation:

Assuming that deceleration keeps constant during the braking process, we can use one of the kinematics equations, as follows:

        [tex]v_{f} ^{2} - v_{o} ^{2} = 2* a * \Delta x (1)[/tex]

        where  vf is the final velocity (0 in our case), v₀ is the initial velocity

        (25 m/s), a is the acceleration (-8.0 m/s²), and Δx is the distance

        traveled since the brakes are applied.

Solving (1) for Δx, we have:

        [tex]\Delta x = \frac{-v_{o} ^{2} }{2*a} = \frac{-(25m/s)^{2}}{2*(-8.0m/s2} = 39.1 m (2)[/tex]        

The car will travel a distance of 39.1 m before its stops.

To solve the problem above, use the equations of motion below.

Equation:

v² = u²+2as................... Equation 1

Where:

v = final velocity of the automobileu = initial velocity of the automobilea = accelerations = distance covered

From the question,

Given:

v = 0 m/s (before its stops)u = 25 m/sa = -8 m/s² (decelerating)

Substitute these values into equation 1

⇒ 0² = 25²+2(-8)(s)

Solve for s

⇒ 0²-25² = -16s⇒ -16s = -625⇒ s = -625/16⇒ s = 39.1 m

Hence, The car will travel a distance of 39.1 m before its stops.

Kinetic theory of matter

This theory states that, the collision of particles (electrons) of matter is perfectly elastic. This implies that as the particles (electrons) collides with one another, kinetic energy is transferred from one electron to another.

ΔK.E = ΔP.E

Change in kinetic energy is equal to change in potential energy of the electrons.

Thus, when the kinetic energy of an electron is transformed into potential energy is when it interacts with other electrons, decreasing its speed. Decrease in speed implies decrease in kinetic energy and increase in potential energy.

Chemical bonds of molecules

Chemical bond is formed from the transfer or sharing of electrons between atoms. (electrons between atoms implies negative charge to negative charge)

Thus, the region of atoms that interact in bonds is electric fields of particles with negative charge.

explain an experiment of the phenomenon of rainfall​

Answers

Unclear/incomplete question. However, I inferred you need an explanation of the phenomenon of rainfall​.

Explanation:

Basically, the phenomenon of rainfall​ follows a natural cycle called the water cycle. What we call 'rainfall' occurs when water condensed (in liquid form) in the atmosphere is made to fall down on the ground as tiny droplets as a result of the forces of gravity.

The water cycle makes rainfall possible:

First, water on the earth's surface is evaporated (or is absorbed into) the atmosphere.Next, it then condensed into liquid form; which later falls to the surface to the ground again. And the process continues.

A heat pump has a coefficient of performance of 3.85 and operates with a power consumption of 7020 W. How much energy does it deliver into a home during 1 h of continuous operation?

Answers

Answer:

97.3 MJ

Explanation:

The formula for the coefficient of Perfomance is given as

COE = Q/W, where

COE is the coefficient of Perfomance

Q is the heat provided

W serves as the work input.

Dividing both sides of the equation by a factor of time t, we get the coefficient of Perfomance in terms of heating power and input power, so we say

COE = P / P(i),

making heating power, P the subject of formula, we have

P = COE * P(i)

P = 3.85 * 7020 * 1 * 3600

P = 97297200 J

P = 97.3 MJ

A stretched string is observed to have four equal segments in a standing wave driven at a frequency of 480 Hz. What driving frequency will set up a standing wave with five equal segments?
a) 360 Hz.b) 240 Hz.c) 600 Hz.d) 120 Hz.

Answers

Answer:

C) 600 Hz

Explanation:

The fundamental frequency can be related to the driving frequency by the expression below;

f(n) = n * f(1)

Where f(1)= fundamental frequency

f(n) = driving frequency

There are four equal segments in the standing wave , then our n= 4 and our f(n)=4, then we can get the fundamental frequency here

f(4) = 4× f(1)

480 = 4× f(1)

f(1) = 480/4

f(1)=120Hz

Hence, fundamental frequency is 120Hz

To calculate the driving frequency that will set up a standing wave with five equal segments?

n=5

f(n) = n× 120Hz

f(5) = 5×120Hz

= 600Hz.

Hence, the driving frequency that will set up a standing wave with five equal segments is 600Hz

100kPa and fills a box of 0.45 m^3.
What is the initial pressure inside the
balloon if the temperature remains
constant?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Initial volume (V1) = 0.075 m³

Final volume (V2) = 0.45 m³

Final pressure (P2) = 100 KPa

Initial pressure (P1) =?

Temperature = constant

The initial pressure can be obtained by using the Boyle's law equation as shown below:

P1V1 = P2V2

P1 × 0.075 = 100 × 0.45

P1 × 0.075 = 45

Divide both side by 0.075

P1 = 45 / 0.075

P1 = 600 KPa.

Thus, the initial pressure in the balloon is 600 KPa.

What is kinetic energy?

The force which a moving object has is referred to as kinetic energy in physics. It is defined as the number of effort required to propel a person of a specific mass from still to a specific velocity.

Aside from slight fluctuations in speed, your body holds onto the kinetic energy it obtains during acceleration.

When the body slows down from its present level to a condition of rest, the same quantity of energy is used.

Formally, kinetic energy is any quantity that has a gradient concerning time in the Lagrangian of a system.

As per the given information in the question,

Distance, d = 2.0 m

Friction, f = 120 N

The angle between displacement and friction force, θ = 180°

Now, the change in kinetic energy for the motorcycle = Work done by the friction.

K.E = f × d(cos θ)

= 120 (2.0 m)(cos 180°)

A radioactive nuclide of atomic number Z emits an alpha particle and the daughter nucleus then emits a beta particle. What is the atomic number of resulting nuclide?
A) Z-1
B) Z+1
C) Z-2
D) Z-3

Answers

Answer:

A) Z-1

Explanation:

when a radioactive element of atomic number Z emits an alpha particle, the mass of the new nucleus decreases by 2, i.e the new atomic number of the element = ( Z- 2).

Also, when the daughter nucleus emits a beta particle, the new nucleus increases by 1,  that is the new atomic number of the element = (Z + 1).

Thus, the atomic number of resulting nuclide = Z ( - 2) + ( + 1).

                                                                           = Z - 2 + 1

                                                                           = Z - 1

Therefore, the atomic number of resulting nuclide is Z - 1

A particular engine has a power output of 2 kW and an efficiency of 27%. If the engine expels 9085 J of thermal energy in each cycle, find the heat absorbed in each cycle. Answer in units of J.

Answers

Answer:

12445 J

Explanation:

Given that

Power output, P = 5 kW

efficiency of the engine, e = 27% = 0.27

Thermal energy expelled, Q(c) = 9085 J

Heat absorbed, Q(h) = ?

Using the formula

e = W/Q(h)

e = [Q(h) - Q(c)] / Q(h)

e = 1 - Q(c)/Q(h)

Now, substituting the values into the formula, we have

0.27 = 1 - 9085/Q(h)

9085/Q(h) = 1 - 0.27

9085/Q(h) = 0.73

Q(h) = 9085 / 0.73

Q(h) = 12445 J

Thus, the heat absorbed is 12445 J
