Answer:

Acceleration due to gravity on moon, 1.6\ m/s^2

Explanation:

Mass of the astronaut, m = 60 kg

Weight of astronaut on the surafce of moon, W = 96 N

The weight of astronaut is given by :

W = m g

g=\dfrac{W}{m}

g=\dfrac{96\ N}{60\ kg}

g=1.6\ m/s^2

So, the acceleration due to gravity on the surface of moon is 1.6\ m/s^2

Also, the acceleration due to gravity on the surface of moon is (1/6)th of the acceleration due to gravity on the surface of earth.

Hence, this is the required solution.

Given: Mass m = 60 Kg

           Weight  W = 96 N

Required: Acceleration due to gravity, g = ?

Formula:  W = mg

                g = W/g

                g = 96 Kg.m/s²/60 Kg   (note: this is the derive unit for Newton "N")

                g = 1.6 m/s²

laila [671]

Answer: amplitude

Explanation: This describes the maximum amount of the displacement of a particle from it rest position. Usually, it is measured in metres

Since we are considering AM which is amplitude modulation, a technique used in electronic communication, most commonly for broadcasting information through a radio carrier wave. In amplitude modulation, the amplitude (signal strength) of the carrier wave is diversified in proportion to that of the message signal being broadcasted.
