Why would your weight be different on the moon than on earth?

Physics

FrozenT [24]3 years ago

First of all, weight isnt really a measurement of how much "stuff" you are made of, mass is. weight is the amount of force you put on the surface you are standing on. because earth has more mass, it has higher gravity which pulls your feet down harder then on the moon where there is less mass, so less graviy

A crane raises a crate with a mass of 150 kg to a height of 20 m. Given that
Virty [35]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 29,400 \ Joules}}

Explanation:

Gravitational potential energy is the energy an object possesses due to its position. It is the product of mass, height, and acceleration due to gravity.

E_P= m \times g \times h

The object has a mass of 150 kilograms and is raised to a height of 20 meters. Since this is on Earth, the acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 meters per square second.

  • m= 150 kg
  • g= 9.8 m/s²
  • h= 20 m

Substitute the values into the formula.

E_p= 150 \ kg \times 9.8 \ m/s^2 \times 20 \ m

Multiply the three numbers and their units together.

E_p=1470 \ kg*m/s^2 \times 20 m

E_p=29400 \ kg*m^2/s^2

Convert the units.

1 kilogram meter square per second squared (1 kg *m²/s²) is equal to 1 Joule (J). Our answer of 29,400 kg*m²/s² is equal to 29,400 Joules.

E_p= 29,400 \ J

The crate has <u>29,400 Joules</u> of potential energy.

A automotive test driver travels due north in a prototype hybrid vehicle at 30 mi/h
Nikolay [14]

Answer:

Option A. 40 mi/h

Explanation:

To obtain the average speed of the vehicle, we'll begin by calculating the distance travelled by the vehicle in each case. This is illustrated below:

Case 1:

Speed = 30 mi/h

Time = 2 h

Distance =...?

Speed = Distance /Time

30 = Distance /2

Cross multiply

Distance = 30 × 2

Distance = 60 mi

Case 2:

Speed = 60 mi/h

Time = 1 h

Distance =...?

Speed = Distance /Time

60 = Distance /1

Cross multiply

Distance = 60 × 1

Distance = 60 mi

Finally, we shall determine the average speed of the vehicle as follow:

Total distance travelled = 60 + 60

Total distance travelled = 120 mi

Total time = 2 + 1

Total time = 3 h

Average speed =..?

Average speed = Total Distance travelled /Total time

Average speed = 120/3

Average speed = 40 mi/h

Therefore, the average speed of the vehicle is 40 mi/h

What happens when the fuel in a car engine combustion?​
Trava [24]

In a spark ignition engine, the fuel is mixed with air and then inducted into the cylinder during the intake process. After the piston compresses the fuel-air mixture, the spark ignites it, causing combustion. The expansion of the combustion gases pushes the piston during the power stroke.
