Chapter 4: Problem 22

A cereal box says "net weight 340 grams." What's the actual weight (a) in SI units and (b) in ounces?

Short Answer

Expert verified
The actual weight is 0.34 kilograms in SI units and approximately 11.99316 ounces.

Step by step solution

01

Convert Grams to Kilograms

To convert grams to kilograms (SI unit for mass), simply divide the weight by 1000, as there are 1000 grams in a kilogram. So, the given 340 grams equate to 340/1000 = 0.34 kilograms.
02

Convert Grams to Ounces

To convert grams to ounces, use the conversion rate, which is 1 gram = approximately 0.035274 ounces. Multiply the weight in grams by this conversion rate. Hence the weight in ounces is 340 * 0.035274 = 11.99316 ounces.

The gravitational acceleration at the International Space Station's altitude is about \(89 \%\) of its surface value. What's the weight of a 68-kg astronaut at this altitude?

A 2280-kg car accelerates from rest to \(31.2 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\) in \(9.48 \mathrm{~s}\), moving in a straight line with constant acceleration. (a) Find the net force acting on the car. (b) If the car then rounds a bend \(166 \mathrm{~m}\) in radius, what net force acts on it?

Find expressions for the force needed to bring an object of mass \(m\) from rest to speed \(v\) (a) in time \(\Delta t\) and (b) over distance \(\Delta x\).

A 2100-kg airplane pulls two gliders, the first of mass \(340 \mathrm{~kg}\) and the second of mass \(280 \mathrm{~kg}\), down the runway with acceleration \(1.7 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}\) (Fig. 4.22). Neglecting the mass of the two ropes and any frictional forces, determine the magnitudes of (a) the horizontal thrust of the plane's propeller, (b) the tension force in the first rope, (c) the tension force in the second rope, and (d) the net force on the first glider.

A \(2.50-\mathrm{kg}\) object is moving along the \(x\)-axis at \(1.60 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}\). As it passes the origin, two forces \(\vec{F}_{1}\) and \(\vec{F}_{2}\) are applied, both in the \(y\)-direction (plus or minus). The forces are applied for \(\stackrel{3.00 \mathrm{~s}, \text { after which the object is at } x=4.80 \mathrm{~m}, y=10.8 \mathrm{~m} . \text { If }\) \(\vec{F}_{1}=15.0 \hat{j} \mathrm{~N}\), what's \(\vec{F}_{2}\) ?
