Answer:

the mass would remain the same and the weight would change

Explanation:

Mass can be thought of as the amount of matter an object has, this quantity is a constant, it will not change even if the rocks are carried to the moon.

What will change is the weight, since it is defined as:

w = mg

where w is the weight, m is the mass and g is the acceleration due to gravity.

We said the mass stays the same, but the acceleration g on the moon will be different (smaller) than the acceleration g on the earth.

So because the weight depends on the acceleration of gravity, if the rocks are taken to the moon where that acceleration is different, the rocks will have a different weight.

So the answer is: the mass would remain the same and the weight would change

Phantasy [73]

The question is incomplete. It comes with a set of answer choices.


These are the answer choices:


Alex observes it as 10 m/s, and his friend observes it as less than 10 m/s.


Alex observes it as less than 10 m/s, and his friend observes it as 10 m/s.


Both Alex and his friend observe it as 10 m/s.


Both Alex and his friend observe it as less than 10 m/s.



Answer: Both Alex and his friend observe it as 10 m/s.


Justification:


1) The speed is relative to the frame of reference.


2) It is said that the both Alex and his friend are standing still.


3) Then, the speed they both see is the same, 10 m/s, respect the Earth (where they are standing still).


Of course, Alex is watching the ball moving away and his friend is seing it approaching, but it is not relevant for the question, as it deals with the speed which is only about magnitude, not direction.

Planets in our solar system do not revolve around the sun in perfect circles. Their orbits are more like ovals that scientists describe as elliptical. It is one of Kepler's laws. The sun is the focus of all the planets. The correct answer is D.
