the mass would remain the same and the weight would change. mass defines the actual amount of an object, while weight is the force gravity has on that object. gravity is different on the moon and the earth therefore the weight will change

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

MAVERICK [17]
Protons do not move out of the nucleus of atoms although they repel each other.

Remember that protons are particles with positive charge and they held together in the nucleus of the atom which is a tiny tiny region. As you know, like charges repel each other, which means that the protons exert a repulsion force.

A uniform solid sphere has mass m= 7 kg and radius r= 0. 4 m. What is its moment of inertia about an axis tangent to its surface
lilavasa [31]

The moment of inertia of a uniform solid sphere is equal to 0.448 kgm^2.

<u>Given the following data:</u>

Mass of sphere = 7 kg.

Radius of sphere = 0.4 meter.

<h3>How to calculate moment of inertia.</h3>

Mathematically, the moment of inertia of a solid sphere is given by this formula:

I=\frac{2}{5} mr^2

<u>Where:</u>

  • I is the moment of inertia.
  • m is the mass.
  • r is the radius.

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

I=\frac{2}{5} \times 7 \times 0.4^2\\\\I=2.8 \times 0.16

I = 0.448 kgm^2.
