The mass of the object will remain the same rather it's on the moon or on the Earth and even in other places. But the weight will change on the moon, so its weight will be different from the one it had on Earth

a baby carriage is sitting at the top of a hill that is 21 m high. the carriage with the baby has a mass of 1.5 kg. the carriage
Serga [27]
Height of baby carriage from ground = 21m

Mass of carriage with baby = 1.5 kg

The carriage has potential energy by virtue of its height.

Potential energy = mgh = 1.5×10×21 = 315 J

Hence, potential energy of the carriage is 315 Joule.

Which theory of the origin of the moon would be most supported if the moon had an irregular shape, like an asteroid? impact theo
Fiesta28 [93]
<span>Its the impact theory.
It suggests that the moon resulted from the collision of two protoplanets, or embryonic worlds. One of those was the just-forming Earth, and the other was a Mars-size object called Theia. The moon then coalesced from the debris, thus giving it its irregular shape.</span>

As light from a star spreads out and weakens, do gaps form between the photons?<br>​
Zolol [24]

Answer:

There are no gaps in space between the photons as they travel. If you were to look at a wave then you'd come  to a conclusion that indeed that there aren't any gaps unless they are specifically placed.The light from a distance star indeed spreads out and weakens as it travels, but this just reduces the wave strength and does not introduce gaps.

A gardener pushes a wheelbarrow around the edges of a lawn. When she has finished, she is 5 m from her starting point. She has t
zvonat [6]

Answer:

Work done by the gardner is 500 J

Explanation:

As we know that the gardner apply force perpendicular upward by magnitude 300 N and along the floor horizontal force is 100 N

so we have

F = 100 \hat i + 300 \hat j

now the displacement of the gardner along the floor is

d = 5\hat i

now work done is given as

W = F. d

so we have

W = (100 \hat i + 300 \hat j). (5\hat i)

W = 500 J

Simplified. The absorption spectra of ions have been used to identify the presence of the elements in the atmospheres of the sun
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

The answer is "3.83 \times 10^9 \ m"

Explanation:

Z=2, so the equation is E= \frac{-4B}{n^2}

Calculate the value for E when:  

n=2 and n=9

The energy is the difference in transformation, name the energy delta E Deduct these two energies  

In this transition, the wavelength of the photon emitted is:

\Delta E=2.18 \times  10^{-18} ( \frac{1}{4}- \frac{1}{81})

\lambda = \frac{h c}{\Delta E}

h ( Planck's\  constant) = 6.62 \times  10^{(-34)} \ Js \\\\ speed \ of \ light = 3 \times 10^{8} \ \frac{m}{s}\\\\= \frac{6.62 \times 10^{(-34)} \times 3 \times 10^ {8}}{2.18 \times  10^{-18}} (\frac{1}{4}- \frac{1}{81}) \\\\=3.83 \times 10^9 \ m\\\\
