Weight of the 120kg mass object on the moon

It is a fact that the gravity on the Moon is (1/6)th that on the Earth.

Assuming g ≈ 10 m/s² on the earth.

W = m*(g moon) =  120 * (10/6) = 200N.

Weight on moon = 200N.

The object would weigh approximately 200N on the moon.. The force of gravity acting on the object on the moon is the same as the weight of the object on the moon.

A basketball is thrown horizontally with an initial speed of
storchak [24]

Answer:

1.35 m

Explanation:

Taking down to be positive, given:

Δx = Δy / tan 30.0º

v₀ₓ = 4.50 m/s

v₀ᵧ = 0 m/s

aₓ = 0 m/s²

aᵧ = 10 m/s²

Find: Δy

First, find the time it takes to land in terms of Δy.

Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²

Δy = (0 m/s) t + ½ (10 m/s) t²

Δy = 5t²

Next, find Δx in terms of t.

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

Δx = (4.50 m/s) t + ½ (0 m/s) t²

Δx = 4.50t

Substitute:

Δy = 5 (Δx / 4.50)²

20.25 Δy = 5 (Δx)²

4.05 Δy = (Δx)²

4.05 Δy = (Δy / tan 30.0º)²

4.05 Δy = 3 (Δy)²

1.35 = Δy

The basketball was thrown from an initial height of 1.35 m.

Which scenario represents the weakest force? (Assume particles in all scenarios are the same distance apart.)
nignag [31]

Answer:

Two rocks of equal mass fall to the ground at the same speed.

Explanation:

The four basic forces also called the fundamental forces as they are responsible for all observations of forces in nature.

The four fundamental forces are gravity, electromagnetism, weak nuclear force, and strong nuclear force.

The gravity is the weakest one.

What provided evidence for the revolution of earth around the sun?.
Alika [10]

Explanation:

there are many things. I am not sure what your teacher told you.

one of the first strange observations leading to this conclusion was the "loop-di-loop" in the track of Mars. because of the different orbits of Earth and Mars, sometimes one (particularly Earth as the faster one) swings around the sun in relation to the other, and with that first moves away and suddenly moves closer again, making the track of Mars appear on Earth as if it would make a loop in the sky.
