The acceleration due to gravity on the Moon's surface is

Physics

Answer:

50 lb

Explanation:

Given,

The weight of astronaut's life support backpack on Earth (w) = 300 lb

Acceleration due to gravity on Earth (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Acceleration due to gravity on Moon = g'

g'=\frac{g}{6}

We know that weight of an object on Earth is,

w = m\times g

m = \frac{w}{g}

Similarly, weight on Moon will be

w' = m\times g'

w' = \frac{w}{g}\times\frac{g}{6}

w' = \frac{300}{6}

w' = 50

Thus the astronaut's life support backpack will weigh 50 lb on Moon.

Mass, weight. Mass is independent of the object’s location, whereas weight is not.

3. A rocket is launched at an angle of 53 degrees above the 1 point
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

24,000 m

Explanation:

First find the rocket's final position and velocity during the first phase in the y direction.

Given:

v₀ = 75 sin 53° m/s

t = 25 s

a = 25 sin 53° m/s²

Find: Δy and v

Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²

Δy = (75 sin 53° m/s) (25 s) + ½ (25 sin 53° m/s²) (25 s)²

Δy = 7736.8 m

v = at + v₀

v = (25 sin 53° m/s²) (25 s) + (75 sin 53° m/s)

v = 559.0 m/s

Next, find the final position of the rocket during the second phase (as a projectile).

Given:

v₀ = 559.0 m/s

v = 0 m/s

a = -9.8 m/s²

Find: Δy

v² = v₀² + 2aΔy

(0 m/s)² = (559.0 m/s)² + 2 (-9.8 m/s²) Δy

Δy = 15945.5 m

The total displacement is:

7736.8 m + 15945.5 m

23682.2 m

Rounded to two significant figures, the maximum altitude reached is 24,000 m.

How does the theory of plate tectonics explain these similarities of location?
Nookie1986 [14]
<span>he theory states that Earth's outermost layer, the lithosphere, is broken into 7 large, rigid pieces called plates: the African, North American, South American, Eurasian, Australian, Antarctic, and Pacific plates. Several minor plates also exist, including the Arabian, Nazca, and Philippines plates. The plates are all moving in different directions and at different speeds</span>
