The acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the Moon is 1.7 m/s²
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Acceleration is rate of change of velocity.


<em>a = acceleration (m / s²)v = final velocity (m / s)</em>
<em>u = initial velocity (m / s)</em>
<em>t = time taken (s)</em>
<em>d = distance (m)</em>
Let us now tackle the problem!
<u>Given:</u>



<u>Unknown:</u>
?
<u>Solution:</u>
The motion of the golf ball is a parabolic motion, then we can use the following formula to calculate the horizontal displacement of the ball.

Let's use this formula to find a comparison of the motion of golf ball on earth and on the moon.
