The gravitational forces between the Earth and Moon are greatest when the two bodies are closest together. That happens every 27.32 days, when the Moon is at the perigee of its orbit.
Even if this happened at the same time in every orbit, the date would change, because there are not 27.32 days in a month.
But it doesn't happen at the same time in every orbit ... the Moon's perigee precesses around its orbit, on account of the gravitational forces toward the Earth, the Sun, Venus, Mars, and the other planets.
Mars: 0.38
weight = mass x surface gravity
multiplying your weight on Earth by the number above will give you your weight on the surface of Mars
If you weigh 150 pounds (68 kg.) on Earth, you would weigh 57 lbs. (26 kg.) on Mars
Answer:
a) (0, -33, 12)
b) area of the triangle : 17.55 units of area
Explanation:
<h2>
a) </h2>
We know that the cross product of linearly independent vectors
and
gives us a nonzero, orthogonal to both, vector. So, if we can find two linearly independent vectors on the plane through the points P, Q, and R, we can use the cross product to obtain the answer to point a.
Luckily for us, we know that vectors
and
are living in the plane through the points P, Q, and R, and are linearly independent.
We know that they are linearly independent, cause to have one, and only one, plane through points P Q and R, this points must be linearly independent (as the dimension of a plane subspace is 3).
If they weren't linearly independent, we will obtain vector zero as the result of the cross product.
So, for our problem:







<h2>B)</h2>
We know that
and
are two sides of the triangle, and we also know that we can use the magnitude of the cross product to find the area of the triangle:

so:




Answer:
16
Explanation:
Mechanical advantage = force out / force in
MA = 2000 N / 125 N
MA = 16
