A person with a weight of 120 lbs. is standing on a scale. What force is the
scale exerting on the person? *
O Olbs up
O 60 lbs up
O 120 lbs up
240 lbs up

Those 4 numbers are the answer choices plz help

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is 120lbs

Explanation:

because the scale exerts enough force to equal out to 0 and since the person is putting 120lbs onto the scale it then pushes back enough force to keep them up

Answer 2

The upward force acting on the body is 534 N which is equal to 240 lbs in the upward direction, hence, option d is correct.

What is force?

Force is an external agent acting on a body to change it from the state of motion or rest. There are various kind of forces namely, gravitational force, magnetic force, nuclear force etc.

Gravitational force is the force by which an object  attracts other objects to its center of mass. Gravitational force depends on the  mass of the object and the distance from the surface of earth.

The weight of the person is 120 lbs.

1 Kg = 2.2 lbs

120 lbs = 54.5 Kg.

The force acting on the body by their weight =  mg = 54.5 Kg × 9. 8 m/s².

= 534 N.

Hence, 534 N is  240 lbs  (534 /2.2 ) of force upward.

Answer:

A book containing information on various types of science related topics.

Answer: a science book is a textbook you use for science.

You are an astronomer on planet tirth, which orbits a distant star. it has recently been accepted that tirth is spherical in shape, though no one knows its size. one day, you learn that on the equinox your sun is directly overhead in the city of tyene, located 750 kilometers due north of you. on the equinox, you go outside in alectown and observe that the altitude of your sun is 87.0 ∘.

Answers

Answer:

The circumference of planet tirth is [tex]C = 90000 \ km[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The distance of tyene from the observer is  [tex]d = 750 \ km[/tex]

   The altitude of the sun from the equinox is   [tex]\theta_s = 87.0^o[/tex]

Generally given that on the equinox your sun is directly overhead in the city of tyene , then the altitude of the tyene from the equinox is  [tex]\theta_e = 90 ^o[/tex]

Generally the angular distance between tyene and the sun as observed from the equinox is mathematically represented as

         [tex]\theta _d = \theta_e - \theta_s[/tex]

=>       [tex]\theta _d = 90 -87[/tex]

=>       [tex]\theta _d =3^o[/tex]

Generally the ratio of [tex]\theta _d =3^o[/tex] to  [tex]360^o[/tex] which is the total angle in a circle is equal to the ratio of  [tex]d = 750 \ km[/tex] to the circumference of the planet

So

         [tex]\frac{\theta_d}{360} = \frac{750}{C}[/tex]

=>      [tex]\frac{3}{360} = \frac{750}{C}[/tex]

=>     [tex]C = 90000 \ km[/tex]

If you committed a crime, would it be easy for investigators to match this print to your records? Why or why not? Hint: how’s the quality of the lifted print? How rare is your pattern? (At least two sentences)

Answers

Answer:

This question is incomplete

Explanation:

This question is incomplete because of the absence of the picture of the print in question. However, when the quality of the print obtained from a crime scene is high/good, then this is a good/positive step in identification of a suspect. However, if the quality is bad, other options might need to be explored in addendum to the print obtained in identifying a suspect.

If the quality of the print is good enough to make a pattern, then another factor comes into play. If the pattern is a rare pattern or is not common, then it becomes easier to identify the suspect because there would be fewer people having that fingerprint and fewer people to deal with. Of the three major patterns of fingerprints (whorl, loop and arch), arch fingerprints are the least common.

Planet X has a magnetic field with strength 0.70 G in the southern direction. When a probe is placed 50 mm east of a vertical wire it measures a field of 0.50 G in the southern direction. What would a probe read if placed 20 mm east of the vertical wire?

Answers

Answer:

0.20 G

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The magnetic field strength of planet X = 0.70 G

The location of a probe in relation to the vertical wire = 50 m

The measurement of a probe placed 50 mm east of a vertical wire = 0.50 G

The location of the probe = 20 mm east of the vertical wire

Based on the given parameter,  the wire is a current carrying conductor with a magnetic field acting tangent to the magnetic field lines.

Given that the measured Earth magnetic field reduces, we have that the magnetic field of the wire cancels the magnetic field of the Earth

As the probe moves closer to the wire the measured magnetic field in the southern direction reduces

When the probe is placed 20 mm from the wire, the magnetic field reduces to 20/50 × 0.50 G = 0.20G

Answers

Answer:

26.67 s

Explanation:

v = Velocidad final = 40 m/s

u = Velocidad inicial = 20 m/s

[tex]t_1[/tex] = Tiempo inicial = 20 s

[tex]t_2[/tex] = Tiempo empleado durante la aceleración

a = Aceleración

s = Desplazamiento del automóvil durante la aceleración = 200 m

De las ecuaciones lineales de movimiento tenemos

[tex]v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow a=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2s}\\\Rightarrow a=\dfrac{40^2-20^2}{2\times 200}\\\Rightarrow a=3\ \text{m/s}^2[/tex]

[tex]v=u+at_2\\\Rightarrow t_2=\dfrac{v-u}{a}\\\Rightarrow t_2=\dfrac{40-20}{3}\\\Rightarrow t_2=6.67\ \text{s}[/tex]

El tiempo necesario para acelerar es 6.67 s

El tiempo total necesario para toda la ruta es [tex]t=t_1+t_2=20+6.67=26.67\ \text{s}[/tex].

Answers

Answer:

La velocidad con la que se mueve el automóvil es 150 [tex]\frac{km}{h}[/tex]

Explanation:

La velocidad es una magnitud que expresa la relación entre el espacio recorrido por un objeto, el tiempo empleado para ello y su dirección.

Es decir, la velocidad se define como la relación que se establece entre la distancia recorrida y el tiempo transcurrido en el movimiento de un móvil.

Se puede calcular la magnitud de la velocidad utilizando la siguiente expresión:

[tex]velocidad=\frac{distancia}{tiempo}[/tex]

En este caso:

distancia= 195 kmtiempo= 1.3 h

Reemplazando:

[tex]velocidad=\frac{195 km}{1.3 h}[/tex]

Answers

Given :

The diagram below shows a force of 5N acting on an object P at an angle of 30° to the horizontal.

To Find :

By drawing appropriate lines on the diagram using a ruler to determine:

a.)The horizontal component of the 5N force.

b.)The vertical component of the 5N force.​

Solution :

Horizontal component is given by :

=F cos θ

=5 cos 30°

= 5×0.866

= 4.33 N

Vertical component is given by :

= F sin θ

= 5 sin 30°

In the diagram below, a 10-kilogram ball is fired with a
velocity of 500 meters per second from a 1,000 kilogram
cannon. What is the recoil velocity of the cannon?

A. 5 m/s
B. B) 2 m/s
C. C) 10 m/s
D. D) 500 m/s

Answers

Answer:

A) 5m/s

Explanation:

Momentum of ball in one direction=momentum of cannon in other direction

mv = mv

(10)(500)=(1000)v

5000=1000v

∴v=5m/s

When a ball is fired with a velocity its momentum remains conserved. The recoil velocity of the cannon is 5m/s.


What is recoil velocity?

The velocity with which the cannon is pushed backwards after firing is called the recoil velocity.

The momentum remains conserved . So, according to the momentum conservation principle, initial momentum is equal to the final momentum.

Mu +mu=Mv +mv

where, M is the mass of cannon and m is the mass of ball.

u is the initial velocity and v is the final velocity.

10 kg ball is fired with a velocity of 500 meters per second from a 1,000 kg cannon.

mu = Mv

(10)(500)=(1000)v

5000=1000v

v=5m/s

Thus, the recoil velocity of the cannon is 5 m/s.

A 100 Watt lightbulb uses 360000 Joules ever hour. How many lightbulbs could be powered for one hour by the energy from the Hiroshima bomb?

Answers

Answer:

200 million electric light bulbs.

Explanation:

First, we must calculate the power of the electric bulb, for this, we use the following equation that relates the energy as a function of time.

[tex]P=E/t[/tex]

where:

P = power [W] (units of watts)

E = energy = 360000 [J] (units of Joules)

t = time = 1 [h] = 3600 [s]

[tex]P = 360000/3600\\P= 100[W][/tex]

In 1 hour 1 electric lightbulb produces 100 [W], now we need to know the amount of energy produced by the Hiroshima bomb. A search made by the internet give us the data of 20 [GW] or [Gigawatts].

We need to remember that 1 Giga = 1 x10⁹

Energy Hiroshima explosion= 20*10⁹[W]

Amount = (20x10⁹)/100

Amount = 200 x10⁶ [bulbs]

That is, we would need an amount of 200 million electric light bulbs.

What is carbon dating?

Even though the plant or animal stops absorbing when it dies, the radioactive carbon it has stored keeps on degrading. Estimating how much is left over allows one to determine how long something has been dead.

The moss was determined to have been frozen for more than 1,500 years based on carbon dating. Now, if other evolutionary ways of dating are consistent with carbon dating, the scientists may have made a significant discovery. However, when used in isolation, carbon dating is at best unreliable and at worst, blatantly wrong.

A. 100 kg at rest
B. 20 kg at 2 m/s
C. 5 kg at 50 m/s
D. 10 kg at 5 m/s​

Answers

Answer: C

Explanation:

A: 100kg*0m/s (obviously not answer)

B: 20kg*2m/s (=40)

C: 5kg*50m/s (=250, safe bet this one is it)

D: 10kg*5m/s (=50)

5 kg at 50 m/s, with a momentum of 250 kg m/s has the most momentum.

Hence, the correct option is C.

To calculate momentum, we use the formula:

Momentum (p) = Mass (m) × Velocity (v)

Let's calculate the momentum for each option:

A. 100 kg at rest

Momentum = 100 kg × 0 m/s = 0 kg m/s

B. 20 kg at 2 m/s

Momentum = 20 kg × 2 m/s = 40 kg m/s

C. 5 kg at 50 m/s

Momentum = 5 kg × 50 m/s = 250 kg m/s

D. 10 kg at 5 m/s

Momentum = 10 kg × 5 m/s = 50 kg m/s

Therefore, 5 kg at 50 m/s, with a momentum of 250 kg m/s has the most momentum.

Answers

Answer:

r = 2.031 x 10⁶ m = 2031 km

Explanation:

In order for the asteroid to orbit the planet, the centripetal force must be equal to the gravitational force between asteroid and planet:

Centripetal Force = Gravitational Force

mv²/r = GmM/r²

v² = GM/r

r = GM/v²

where,

r = radial distance = ?

G = Universal Gravitational Constant = 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N.m²/kg²

M = Mass of Planet = 3.52 x 10¹³ kg

v = tangential speed = 0.034 m/s

Therefore,

r = (6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N.m²/kg²)(3.52 x 10¹³ kg)/(0.034 m/s)²
