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

What is Kepler’s first law?
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

Kepler's First Law: each planet's orbit about the Sun is an ellipse. The Sun's center is always located at one focus of the orbital ellipse. The Sun is at one focus. The planet follows the ellipse in its orbit, meaning that the planet to Sun distance is constantly changing as the planet goes around its orbit.

svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

\tau=22.13Nm

Explanation:

information we have:

mass: m=0.9kg

lenght: L=0.95m

frequency: f=2.6rev/s

time: t=0.2s

and from the information we have we can calculate the angular velocity \omega. which is defined as

\omega=2\pi f

\omega=2\pi (2.6rev/s)\\\omega=16.336 rev/s

----------------------------

Now, to calculate the torque

We use the formula

\tau=I \alpha

where I  is the moment of inertia and \alpha is the angular acceleration

moment of inertia of a uniform rod about the end of it:

I=\frac{1}{3}mL^2

substituting known values:

I=\frac{1}{3} (0.9kg)(0.95m)^2\\I=0.271kg/m^2

for the torque we also need the acceleration \alpha which is defined as:

\alpha=\frac{\omega}{t}

susbtituting known values:

\alpha=\frac{16.336rev/s}{0.2s} \\\alpha=81.68rev/s^2

and finally we substitute I and  \alpha  into the torque equation \tau=I \alpha:\tau=(0.271kg/m^2)(81.68rev(s^2)\\\tau=22.13Nm
