Answer:

An object on the moon would weigh the LEAST among these. So correct answer is B.

Explanation:

  • Weight of an object on any place is given by:

W = Mass * Acceleration due to gravity(g)

  • It means when masses of different objects those are in different places are same, the weight of  those objects depends upon the 'g' of that particular place.
  • As we know, acceleration due to gravity on surface of moon (g') is 6 times weaker than the acceleration on surface of earth (g), which is due to the large M/R^2 of the earth than the moon.

i.e. g' = g/6 so W' = W/6

  • And in the space between the two, the object is weightless.

Figure 23.9 shows a sliding mass on a spring. Assume there is no friction.
Tom [10]
<span>Without friction, there will be undamped simple harmonic motion. The force of the spring is proportional to the distance from the equilibrium point. The period of oscillation will be independent of the amplitude.

I hope my answer has come to your help. God bless and have a nice day ahead!</span>

Consider an unknown charge that is released from rest at a particular location in an electric field so that it has some initial
sineoko [7]

Answer:

b)

Explanation:

If the charge is released at rest in an electric field, it will move along the electric field, going to regions of higher electric potential if it is a negative charge (against the field direction) and towards lower potential regions if it is positive (along the field). This means that the charge will gain kinetic energy, energy that only can come from a decrease in the electric potential energy.

For a positive charge: ΔEp = q*ΔV < 0 (as ΔV < 0)

For a negative charge: ΔEp = (-q) *ΔV < 0 (as ΔV > 0)
