The correct formula to use is: F = G [M1*M2] /r^2
Where,
G = the force of gravity
M1 = the mass of the first object [the mass of the astronaut]
M2 = the mass of the second object [the mass of the planet]
r = the distance between the two objects in metre
F = 6.67 * 10^-11 [66.5 * 8.43 * 10^23] / [4.40 * 10^6]^2
F = 193N.<span />

What makes astronomers think that impact rates for the Moon must have been higher earlier than 3.8 billion years ago?
dexar [7]

There is strong evidence indicating that 3.8 billion years ago there was a higher impact rate. This deduction starts from comparing the number of craters in the lunar highlands with those of the Mary. If this comparison is made, it will be observed that there are 10 times more craters in the highlands than in a similar area of Mary. It should be borne in mind that through radioactive dating processes the samples indicate that there is a slightly greater antiquity in the highlands than those of Maria. This allows us to deduce that if the impact rates had been constant, the highlands would have been 10 times older. They would have to be formed 38 billion years ago, long before the universe itself began.

Therefore one of the most obvious reasons is there are ten times more craters on the older highlands than the Younger Maria.

Why does the Sun appear so big, bright, and hot if it is<br> only an average sized star?
Elena L [17]

Answer:

The Sun looks bigger than other stars because it is so much closer to the Earth. The further away an object is, the smaller it appears, even if it is very big.

Explanation:

However, compared to other stars, our Sun is only a medium-sized star, meaning that some stars are much larger than the Sun and some are much smaller.

What is the formula to calculate the readings on an ammeter?
Cloud [144]
If the voltage and the resistance are known within the circuit, then you can use the formula:

Current = Voltage / Resistance

If you know the amount of charge going past a certain location in a certain amount of time, then you can find the current using:

Current = charge / time

If a car is moving on a straight line with a velocity of 40 m/s and it changes its velocity to 60 m/s in 4 seconds, calculate it
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

5m/s²

Explanation:

Initial Velocity= 40m/s

Final Velocity=60m/s

Time = 4s

a=(v-u)/t

a=60-40/4

a=20/4

a=5m/s²
