Mass is the same, weight is less

<h3>What is the Weight and mass on Moon ?</h3>

As we know that the mass of the object is the measurement of the quantity of the matter that is present in it

So here we can say that if the mass of the object is m then its total quantity of the matter that is present in it is given as

mass = (density) × (volume)

Now for the weight of the object is defined as the force of gravity due to planet

Fg = mg

so the weight of the object is depending on the acceleration due to gravity of the planet

As we know that the gravity of moon is smaller than the gravity of the earth so here weight on the moon will be smaller than the weight on the Earth

1.The distance moved by objects in a given interval of time can help us to decide which one is faster or slower. Do you agree wi
shutvik [7]

Answer:

The rate of change of distance is defined as speed.

Explanation:

The speed is defined as the rate of change of distance.

Speed = distance/ time

When we know the distance and the time, we get the value of speed. So, e know that who is moving fast or slow.

hen a graph is pltted beteen the distance and time, the slope of the graph gives the value of speed. So, by checking the slopes, hoseslope ismore, the speed is more and thusit is moving faster.

So, i agree with the statement.

7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

22145.27733 ft

124984.76055 ft

Explanation:

The equation of pressure is

P=P_0e^{-kh}

where,

P_0 =Atmospheric pressure = 800 mbar

k = Constant

h = Altitude = 35000 ft

P=\dfrac{1}{3}P_0

\dfrac{1}{3}P_0=P_0e^{-k35000}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{3}=e^{-k35000}\\\Rightarrow 3=e^{k35000}\\\Rightarrow ln3=k35000\\\Rightarrow k=\dfrac{ln3}{35000}\\\Rightarrow k=3.13\times 10^{-5}

Now

P=\dfrac{1}{2}P_0

ln2=kh\\\Rightarrow h=\dfrac{ln2}{k}\\\Rightarrow h=\dfrac{ln2}{3.13\times 10^{-5}}\\\Rightarrow h=22145.27733\ ft

The altitude will be 22145.27733 ft

P=0.02P_0

0.02P_0=P_0e^{-kh}\\\Rightarrow 0.02=e^{-3.13\times 10^{-5}h}\\\Rightarrow ln0.02=-3.13\times 10^{-5}h\\\Rightarrow h=\dfrac{ln0.02}{-3.13\times 10^{-5}}\\\Rightarrow h=124984.76055\ ft

The elevation is 124984.76055 ft
