Answer: the moon is closer.

Explanation:

The moon is closer to the earth than the sun, which results in a larger gravitational gradient for the moon even though the sun is considerably more massive and has stronger overall gravity than the moon.

a racing car undergoes a uniform acceleration of 4.00m/s2. if the net force causing the acceleration is 3.00 times 10^3 N, what
yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer: 750Kg

Explanation:

Recall that force is the product of the mass M, of an object moving at a uniform acceleration.

i.e Force = Mass x Acceleration

In this case, Mass = ?

Force = 3.00 x 10^3 N = (3.00 x 1000N)

= 3000N

Uniform acceleration = 4.00m/s^2

Force = Mass x Acceleration

3000N = Mass x 4.00m/s^2

Mass = (3000N/4.00m/s^2)

Mass = 750Kg (The SI unit of mass is kilograms)

Thus, the mass of the car is 750Kg

Starting from your campsite you walk 3.0 km east, 6.0 km north, 1.0 km east, and then 4.0 km west. How far are you from your cam
Hatshy [7]
Think of it like a graph. You start at the origin which is (0,0).  go three to the east which now you are (3,0). Then, six to the north. Now, you are at (3,6).  1 to the east, ((4,6).  Then you go 4 to the west which is back tracking. So, you end at (0,6) which is saying you are now 6 km north from your campsite. 

Hope this helps!

Rocket engineers use newton's third law during launch. identify the action force.
rosijanka [135]
The answer is A. Newton's third law of motion states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. A rocket exerts a large force on the gas that is in the rocket chamber (action). The gas thus exerts a large reaction force forward on the rocket (reaction). The large reaction force is called thrust.
