Correct answer: B
The force of gravity acting on the object on the moon can be found by multiplying its mass by the acceleration due to gravity on the moon. The acceleration due to gravity on the moon is a constant and is approximately 1.63m/s².
120kg×1.63m/s²=195.6kg.m/s²
kg.m/s²=N
<span>The force of gravity acting on the object on the moon would be of approximately 196N.</span>

To compare the hearing capacities of 5 of his friends, Ravi designs a simple experiment. He places a CD player at the end of a l
aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

A) having each person listen to just 1 song instead of 5.

Explanation:

Ravi could accurately use the outcome to compare the hearing capacities of his friends by this experiment if appropriate precautions are observed.

Playing 5 well known songs simultaneously could result to the interference of sounds when each participant moves away from the player. Which could naturally cause the variation in volume of the songs played with respect to the increasing distance.

Therefore, the reliability of the result from this experiment can be increased if each person listen to just 1 song instead of 5 at a predetermined volume. Each participant would be able to focus on hearing a song during the experiment.

A 6500 kg satellite orbits a planet. If its distance to the center of the planet is 9e6 m and its speed is 6.7e3 m/s, what is th
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

the gravitational force between the satellite and the planet is 32.4  * 10³N

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the satellite, m = 6500 kg

Speed of the satellite, v = 6.7 × 10³ m/s

distance to the center of the planet = 9  × 10⁶m

Let F is the magnitude of the gravitational force exerted on the satellite by the planet. The centripetal force is equal to the gravitational force. It is equal to :

F = \frac{mv^2}{R}

F = \frac{6500  \times (6.7 * 10^3)}{9 * 10^6}

= 32.4  * 10³N

the gravitational force between the satellite and the planet is 32.4  * 10³N
