ANSWER:

The Moon's gravity is less than Earth's.

STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:

When you jump, you fall back to the ground. Apples or leaves also fall: we are all attracted to the Earth. It is the terrestrial attraction due to the force of gravity.

The force of gravity also exists on the Moon. But since the Moon is smaller than the Earth, the attraction felt on the Moon is smaller than the Earth's attraction.

As the gravity is less, you can do things such as the one shown in the image.

As the force of attraction is less, the weight is less on the Moon, which can cause things that would be impossible on Earth.

A loader sack of total mass

vampirchik [111]

Question: A loader sack of total mass

is l000 grams falls down from

the floor of a lorry 200 cm high

Calculate the workdone by the

gravity of the load.

Answer:

19.6 Joules

Explanation:

Applying

W = mgh........................ Equation 1

Where W = Workdone by gravity on the load, m = mass of the loader sack, h = height, g = acceleration due to gravity

From the question,

Given: m = 1000 grams = (1000/1000) kilogram = 1 kg, h = 200 cm = 2 m

Constant: g = 9.8 m/s²

Substitute these values into equation 1

W = (1×2×9.8)

W = 19.6 Joules

Hence the work done by gravity on the load is 19.6 Joules

Option e is true. The total energy is the sum of all the energies present in the system. The potential energy in a system is due to its position in the system.

<h3>What is the law of conservation of energy?</h3>

According to the Law of conservation of energy. Although energy cannot be generated or destroyed, it may be transferred from one form to another.

The following statements are true;

a)All of its energy must be potential energy before it falls.

b)At the conclusion of its fall, all of its energy must be transformed to kinetic energy.

c)During its fall, the sum of its kinetic and potential energy must match the initial quantity of potential energy.

d)Total energy = Kinetic Energy + Potential Energy.

Hence, option e is correct.

Explain each of the following phenomena and how they extend our understanding of genetics from the work done by Gregor Mendel an

Korolek [52]

Answer:

Incomplete Dominance: In this case, the 3rd different phenotype is created by the heterozygous(CwCr) (for example, pink)

Co-Dominance: the heterozygous is observed to show both the homozygous conditions (for example the blood type iAiB shows both A and B carbohydrates)

Multiple alleles: This is when a gene has over 2 alleles (i.e. blood has ia ib i)

Polygenic inheritance: This is when over two different gene leads to the expression of a trait.

Pleiotropy: This is the when a gene shows several effects on an organism.

Epistasis: This is when more than one gene have strong control on the expression of a trait (for example, E/e allele creates pigments)

Sex-linkage: This refers to the genes found in sex chromosomes

Gene Linkage: These are the genes situated in a similar chromosome.
