Weight doesn't really mean much as it just means gravity the bigger a space object is the more force it has to pull on something since the moon is smaller than the earth then it has less gravity and then less weight on scales.

Two particles with charges are initially very far apart (effectively an infinite distance apart). They are then fixed at positio
ddd [48]

Answer:

potential energy increases.

Explanation:

The potential energy between the two charged particles is given by

U = k Q q / r

If they are very far apart then r tends to infinity and the potential energy is zero.

If they come closer then the potential energy between the two charged particles increases.

Thus, the potential energy increases.

A dart is thrown at a dartboard 3.66 m away. When the dart is released at the same height as the center of the dartboard, it hit
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

The  angle is  \theta  =  15.48^o

Explanation:

From the question we are told that  

     The distance of the dartboard from the dart is  d  =  3.66  \ m

     The time taken is  t =  0.455 \ s

   

The  horizontal component of the speed of the dart is mathematically represented as

      u_x =  ucos \theta

where u is the the velocity at dart is lunched

  so

      distance =  velocity \ in \ the\  x-direction  *  time

substituting values

      3.66 =   ucos  \theta *  (0.455)

 =>   ucos \theta =  8.04  \ m/s

From projectile kinematics the time taken by the dart can be mathematically represented as

         t  =  \frac{2usin \theta }{g}

=>    usin \theta =  \frac{g  * t}{2 }

       usin \theta =  \frac{9.8  * 0.455}{2 }

      usin \theta = 2.23

=>   tan \theta =  \frac{usin\theta }{ucos \theta }  =  \frac{2.23}{8.04}

       \theta  =  tan^{-1} [0.277]

      \theta  =  15.48^o
