The weight on the scale is different, what do you think accounts for this difference?

What is the acceleration of a spaceship that is initially at rest and then speeds up to 220 m/s in 20 seconds

Awoman holds a book by placing it between her hands such that she presses at right angles to the front and back covers. the book has a mass of m = 1.8 kg and the coefficient of static friction between her hand and the book is μs = 0.67. no attempt 50% part (a) what is the weight of the book, fgb in newtons?

Astudent throws a water balloon with speed v0 from a height h = 1.76 m at an angle θ = 21° above the horizontal toward a target on the ground. the target is located a horizontal distance d = 9.5 m from the student’s feet. assume that the balloon moves without air resistance. use a cartesian coordinate system with the origin at the balloon's initial position. (a) what is the position vector, rtarge t, that originates from the balloon's original position and terminates at the target? put this in terms of h and d, and represent it as a vector using i and j. (b) in terms of the variables in the problem, determine the time, t, after the launch it takes the balloon to reach the target. your answer should not include h. (c) create an expression for the balloon's vertical position as a function of time, y(t), in terms of t, vo, g, and θ. (d) determine the magnitude of the balloon's initial velocity, v0, in meters per second, by eliminating t from the previous two expressions.
