Why is the gravitational potential energy of an object 1 meter above the moon’s surface less than its potential energy 1 meter a

bove Earth’s surface?
A. The object’s mass is less on the moon.
B. The object’s weight is more on the moon.
C. The object’s acceleration due to gravity is less on the moon.

Potential energy relative to the surface is

         (mass) x (<span>acceleration due to gravity) x (height above the surface).

At 1.0 meter above the surface, that is

</span>          (mass) x (<span>acceleration due to gravity) x (1.0 meter) .

The object's mass doesn't change, so the only thing that has any effect
on its potential energy at 1 meter above the surface is the acceleration
of gravity or, in other words, the surface of <em><u>what</u></em> ?

On a production possibilities curve, any point that falls outside the frontier line is considered
Yanka [14]

Answer:

The Production Possibilities Curve (PPC) is a model used to show the tradeoffs associated with allocating resources between the production of two goods. The PPC can be used to illustrate the concepts of scarcity, opportunity cost, efficiency, inefficiency, economic growth, and contractions.

Convert to the fractional equivalent and reduce 21.12
nignag [31]

The decimal point is placed after two digits starting from the end. For each decimal place, we can write the number divided by 100.

21.12 can be written as \frac{2112}{100}.

Divide the numerator and denominator by 2:

\frac{2112}{100}= \frac{156}{50}

The numerator and denominator can be divided by 2 again:

\frac{78}{25}

There is no other common factor between numerator and denominator other than 1. Hence, it is the reduced form.

a catcher "gives" with the ball when he catches a 0.196 kg baseball moving at 31 m/s. if he moves his glove a distance of 5.32 c
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

3540.5N

Explanation:

Step one:

given data

mass m= 0.196kg

speed  v= 31m/s

distance r= 5.32cm = 0.0532m

Step two

The expression relating force, mass, velocity and distance is

F= mv^2/r

substitute we have

F=0.196*31^2/0.0532

F=0.196*961/0.0532

F=188.356/0.0532

F=3540.5N
