The moon has much less gravitational force than earth. What would happen if you went to the moon?

1 answer:

7 0

Besides suffocating and inflating like a balloon in the Moon's lack of Oxygen, getting cooked during the Moon's daytime, getting frozen solid during the Moon's night-time, and having no access to the internet or any radio or TV stations, you would weigh only about 16% of what you weigh on Earth because of the Moon's lesser gravity.

So like if you weigh 135 pounds on Earth AND you remembered to bring the bathroom scale with you when you left for the Moon, the scale would show that you weigh only a little over 22 pounds there.

Stells [14]

Answer:

v = 7.67 m/s

Explanation:

Given data:

horizontal distance 11.98 m

Acceleration due to gravity 9.8 m/s^2

Assuming initial velocity is zero

we know that

$h = \frac{gt^2}{2}$

solving for t

we have

$t = \sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}}$

substituing all value for time t

$t = \sqrt{\frac{2\times 11.98}{9.8}}$

t = 1.56 s

we know that speed is given as

$v = \frac{d}{t}$

$v =\frac{11.98}{1.56}$

v = 7.67 m/s

Does a volcano contain a medium? Does the energy travel through anything- the transverse waves?

Elza [17]

This molten rock is called magma when it is beneath the surface and lava when it erupts or flows from a volcano. Along with lava, volcanoes also release gases, ash, and rock. ... Volcanoes form at the edges of Earth's tectonic plates

1) The energy held in the molecules that your lunch is composed of

Rasek [7]

Answer:

Chemical energy

Explanation:

The energy held in the foods molecules a lunch pack is composed of is chemical energy.

They occur within food substances which originates from plants and animals as giant organic molecules.

Since food is often derived from plants and animals.
Plants produce their own food by producing macromolecules from simple inorganic substances in the environment.
Animals takes up these food and build their own body through it.
Plants and animal parts constitutes organic molecules in which chemical energy is duly stored.
When the molecules are broken down, they released their chemical potential energy into heat energy.

The magnetic field at the center of a 1.0-cm-diameter loop is 2.5 mT.

olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

(a) The current in the wire is 19.89 A

(b) The distance from the wire is 0.159 cm

Explanation:

Given;

magnetic field, B = 2.5 mT

diameter of the wire, d = 1 cm

radius of the wire, r = 0.5 cm = 0.005 m

(a) The current in the wire is calculated as;

$I = \frac{2Br}{\mu_0} \\\\I = \frac{2\times 2.5 \times 10^{-3} \times 0.005 }{4\pi \times 10^{-7} } \\\\I = 19.89 \ A$

(b) The distance from the wire where the magnetic field is 2.5 mT is calculated as;

$B = \frac{\mu_0 I}{2\pi d} \\\\where;\\\\d \ is \ the \ distance \ from \ the \ wire\\\\d = \frac{\mu_0 I}{2\pi B} = \frac{4 \pi \times 10^{-7} \times 19.89}{2\pi \times 2.5 \times 10^{-3}} = 0.00159 \ m = 0.159 \ cm$

As you stand on a floor, the floor exerts an upward force on you. why are you not moved upward by this force? 1. the upward forc

dolphi86 [110]

Newton's third law of motion states that for any action, there is equal and opposite force. For a person standing on a floor, the action force is the weight and thus the floor must exert an opposite and equal reaction force equivalent in magnitude to the weight of the person.

In this regard, statement 3. is correct.
