Answer:

b. less than

Explanation:

Moment of inertia decreases as angular velocity increases. Therefore, since the minute hand is faster than the hour hand, it is safe to say that the moment of inertia of the minute hand is less than the moment of inertia of the hour hand?

A=Fh
A - work
F - force
h - distance

F=mg
m - mass (god+basket)

so
A=mgh
187 = m*10*4
187=40m
m=187/40
m=4.675 kg
or 4kg and 675g

If a satellite weighs 321 lb. on the earth's surface (R = 4,000 miles), how much does it weigh 12,000 miles above the surface? (
Sever21 [200]

The gravitational force between the Earth and the satellite (its "weight") is inversely proportional to the distance between the centers of both objects.

On the surface, their centers are separated by 1 Earth radius.

12,000 miles above the surface, they're separated by 4 Earth radiii.

(4/1) = 4

So after the move, the satellite's weight is (1/4²) = 1/16 of its surface weight.

(321 lb) / (16) = (20 and a hair) lb

The correct choice from the given list is " <em>>20 lb "</em> .
