Remember the formula as per the second Law of Newton: F = m*a
And also remember that the weight is the force with which the mass is attracted by the planet (or satellite in the case of the moon).
With that information you can answer the questions:
a) Weight = F = m*a
m = 175 slugs = 175 lbm
i) Earth
a = 32.17 ft/s^2
Weight on Earth = 175 lbm * 32.17 ft / s^2 = 5,629.75 poundal
ii) Moon
a = [1/6] 32.17 ft/s^2
Weight on the Moon = [1/6]*5,629.75 poundal = 938.29 poundal
b) Force = 355 poundal
m = 25.0 slug
a in m/s^2 = ?
First calculate the force in ft/s^2
F = m*a => a = F/m = 355 poundal / 25.0 slug = 14.2 ft/s^2
Conversion:
14.2 ft / s^2 * [ 0.3048 m/ft] = 4.32816 m/s^2
Answer: 4.33 m/s^2
With the info given i would have to say their is no kinetic energy, it's all potential energy.
Answer:
As an example I can say sodium (Na) and chlorine (Cl).
Explanation:
An ionic bond occurs when a metal element reacts with a nonmetal element. Therefore in the answer given above the Na is metal and Cl is nonmetal and they form a molecule through ionic bonding.
