I believe the correct gravity on the moon is 1/6 of Earth.
Take note there is a difference between 1 6 and 1/6.
HOWEVER, we should realize that the trick here is that the
question asks about the MASS of the astronaut and not his weight. Mass is an
inherent property of an object, it is unaffected by external factors such as
gravity. What will change as the astronaut moves from Earth to the moon is his
weight, which has the formula: weight = mass times gravity.
<span>Therefore if he has a mass of 50 kg on Earth, then he will
also have a mass of 50 kg on moon.</span>

Explanation:
m1(v1) + m2(v2)
Opposite turns the plus to subtraction.
80(8) - 120(4.0)
60 - 480 = 160 kg m/s to the right
<span>b) The force with a distance of 150 km is 889 N
c) The force with a distance of 50 km is 8000 N
This question looks like a mixture of a question and a critique of a previous answer. I'll attempt to address the original question.
Since the radius of the spherical objects isn't mentioned anywhere, I will assume that the distance from the center of each spherical object is what's being given. The gravitational force between two masses is given as
F = (G M1 M2)/r^2
where
F = Force
G = gravitational constant
M1 = Mass 1
M2 = Mass 2
r = distance between center of masses for the two masses.
So with a r value of 100 km, we have a force of 2000 Newtons. If we change the distance to 150 km, that increases the distance by a factor of 1.5 and since the force varies with the inverse square, we get the original force divided by 2.25. And 2000 / 2.25 = 888.88888.... when rounded to 3 digits gives us 889.
Looking at what looks like an answer of 890 in the question is explainable as someone rounding incorrectly to 2 significant digits.
If the distance is changed to 50 km from the original 100 km, then you have half the distance (50/100 = 0.5) and the squaring will give you a new divisor of 0.25, and 2000 / 0.25 = 8000. So the force increases to 8000 Newtons.</span>
The statement which is true of a wave that’s propagating along the pavement and girders of a suspension bridge is A. The wave is mechanical, with particles vibrating in a direction that is parallel to that of the wave, forming compressions and rarefactions.

Explanation:
Molecular theory of magnetism states, "If molecular magnets align in a row, then the substance exhibits magnetic property. If they are kept haphazardly, they do not exhibit magnetic property." This is the molecular theory of magnetism. If molecular magnets align in a row, then the substance exhibits magnetic property.
