That's the flat-top marked ' B '.
It's 6 m/s.
Answer:
v = 2.38 × 10³ m/s
Explanation:
Escape velocity, v = √(2gR) where g = acceleration due to gravity on planet and R = radius of planet.
Since it is given that the weight of the man on the moon is 1/6 his weight on earth, and g' = acceleration due to gravity on moon and g = acceleration due to gravity on earth and m = mass of man,
mg' = mg/6
g' = g/6
Since g = 9.8 m/s²,
g'= 9.8 m/s² ÷ 6
g' = 1.63 m/s²
The escape velocity of the moon is thus v = √(2g'R) where R = radius of moon = 1.737 × 10⁶ m.
Substituting these into v, we have
v = √(2g'R)
v = √(2 × 1.63 m/s² × 1.737 × 10⁶ m)
v = √[5.663 × 10⁶ (m/s)²]
v = 2.38 × 10³ m/s
A small pebble would sink in water because it is to light and can’t hold itself up in the water. Hope this helped!
