The acceleration due to gravity is lower on the Moon than on Earth. Which one of the following statements is true about the mass
2 answers:
Answer:
a) Mass is the same, weight is less.
Explanation:
As we know that the mass of the object is the measurement of the quantity of the matter that is present in it
So here we can say that if the mass of the object is m then its total quantity of the matter that is present in it is given as
Now for the weight of the object is defined as the force of gravity due to planet
so the weight of the object is depending on the acceleration due to gravity of the planet
As we know that the gravity of moon is smaller than the gravity of the earth so here weight on the moon will be smaller than the weight on the Earth
so correct answer will be
a) Mass is the same, weight is less.

</h2><h2>_____________________________________</h2><h2>DATA:</h2>
mass = m = 2kg
Distance = x = 6m
Force = 30N
TO FIND:
Work = W = ?
Velocity = V = ?
<h2>SOLUTION:</h2>According to the object of mass 2 kg travels a distance when the force was exerted on it. The graph between the Force and position was plotted which shows that 30 N of force was used to push the object till the distance of 6.0m.
To find the work, I will use the method of determining the area of the plotted graph. As the graph is plotted in the straight line between the Force and work, THE PICTURE ATTCHED SHOWS THE AREA COVERED IN BLUE AS WORK DONE AND HEIGHT AS 30m AND DISTANCE COVERED AS 6m To solve for the area(work) of triangle is given as,
Base is the x-axis of the graph which is Position i.e. 6m
Height is the y-axis of the graph which is Force i.e. 30N
So,
W = 90 J
The work done is 90 J.
According to the principle of work and kinetic energy (also known as the work-energy theorem) states that the work done by the sum of all forces acting on a particle equals the change in the kinetic energy of the particle.
