The acceleration due to gravity on the moon is about 1/6 of the acceleration due to gravity on the earth. A net force F acts hor

izontally on an object on the Moon, producing an acceleration equal to am. In the absence of friction and drag, the same force acting on the same object on Earth would produce an acceleration i.e. equal to
a. 6am
b. (1/6)am
c. am
d. 0
e. 9.8 m/s2

Answer:

c.a_m

Explanation:

We are given that

Acceleration due to gravity on the moon=a_m

Acceleration due to gravity on the earth=a_e

g_m=\frac{1}{6}g_e

Net force due to am on an object on moon=F_{net}=ma_m

There is no friction and no drag force and there is no gravity involved

Then, the force acting on an object on earth=F=ma_e

F=F_{net}(given)

ma_m=ma_e

a_e=a_m

Hence, option c is true.

A VW Beetle goes from 0 to 60.0 mi/h with an acceleration of +2.35 m/s^2. (a) How much time does it take for the beetle to reach
Firlakuza [10]
Im going to tell you what to do but not the result. So pay close attention: the first thing you need to do is convert miles/h to m/s. Then for the part a) <span>divide the final velocity by the initial velocity. That will give you the amount of it will take to accelerate to the final velocity.Now for the part b you </span>use the formula v=vo+at. I hope this can help you

Ground reaction force acting on carter
mezya [45]
We don't know Carter, and we don't know where he is or what
he's doing, so I'm taking a big chance speculating on an answer.

I'm going to say that if Carter is pretty much just standing there,
or, let's say, lying on the ground taking a nap, then the force of
the ground acting on him is precisely exactly equal to his weight.
