Garfield (weighing 24 lbs) took a flight from the earth to the moon (where the gravity is 1/6 the gravity here on earth) on the

space shuttle. As usual, he stuffed himself with lasagna during the entire flight and napped when he wasn't eating. Much to his delight when he got to the moon he found he weighed only 6 lbs. He immediately proclaimed a quick weight loss diet.
What is/are the REASONING to support Garfield's claim to a quick weight loss diet?

Answer:

Reason: Gravitational pull of the Moon

Explanation:

Weight of Garfield is 24 lbs on the Earth. He took a flight from the Earth to the Moon where the gravity is 1/6 of the gravity on the Earth.

But when reaches the Moon he found he weighed only 6 lbs. It is due to the gravitational pull of the Moon.

Mass of an object reamins the same at every location while its weight changes due to the change in acceleration due to gravity. It is equal (on Moon) to 1/6 the of acceleration due to gravity on the earth.

DedPeter [7]

First solve the mass of 37.9 L seawater

M = 37.9 L ( 1000 ml / 1L ) ( 1.03 g / ml)

M = 39037 g

Then convert it to lb

M = 39037 g ( 1 lb / 453.592 g)

M = 86.06 lb

<span>Total weight = 86.06 lb + 59.5 lb = 145.56 lb so it can support the aquarium</span>

Can we use electrical equipment near water? Explain Why?
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

You may, but it is too risky.

Even though you are being cautious around using electric equipment around water, you'll never know what can happen. You might accidentally drop that piece of electrical equipment you are using into the water. Water can be splashed around by someone or something without you noticing it and it may affect the object you are using. Sometimes, if water comes in contact with an electrical object, it may cause you electric shocks or the equipment you are using has a chance of exploding and may hurt you. You can guarantee that waterproof electrical equipment is safe to use, but it is better not to risk it too much.
