In the year 1178, five monks at Canterbury Cathedral in England observed what appeared to be an asteroid colliding with the moon, causing a red glow in and around it. It is hypothesized that this event created the crater Giordano Bruno, which is right on the edge of the area we can usually see from Earth.
How long after the asteroid hit the Moon,which is away ,would the light first arrive on the earth in seconds
Answer:
The time it would take is
Explanation:
The objective of this question is to obtain the time the light would arrive earth
We are told that the distance from moon to earth is
Now generally time is mathematically represented as
The c here is the speed of light which has a value of
Now substituting values

A proton is located at <3 x 10^{-10}, -5*10^{-10} , -5*10^{-10}> m. What is r, the vector from the origin to the location of the proton
Answer:
The vector position is
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The position of the proton is
Generally the vector location of the proton is mathematically represented as
So substituting values
Answer:
8.1 N/49 N=0.1653 which means 16.53% of the weight of the object on Earth.
Explanation:
On the Moon, where the gravitational constant is 1.62 , the weight of the 5 kg object will be:
Where the answer is in Newtons (N) since all quantities are given in the SI system.
On Earth, on the other hand, the weight of the object is:
Therefore the object's weight on the Moon compared to that on Earth will be:
That is, 16.53% of the weight the object has on Earth.
