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.

A ball is thrown vertically upward from the ground. Its distance in feet from the ground in t seconds is s equals negative 16 t

marishachu [46]

Answer:

t₁ = 3 s

Explanation:

In this exercise, the vertical displacement equation is not given

y = 240 t + 16 t²

Where y is the displacement, 240 is the initial velocity and 16 is half the value of the acceleration

Let's replace

864 = 240 t + 16 t²

Let's solve the second degree equation

16 t² + 240 t - 864 = 0

Let's divide by 16

t² + 15 t - 54 = 0

The solution of this equation is

t = [-15 ± √(15 2 - 4 1 (-54)) ] / 2 1

t = [-15 ±√(225 +216)] / 2

t = [-15 + - 21] / 2

We have two solutions.

t₁ = [-15 +21] / 2

t₁ = 3 s

t₂ = -18 s

Since time cannot have negative values, the correct t₁ = 3s

Why do nuclear power plants use fission rather than fusion to generate

kicyunya [14]

B. Fusion requires very high pressure and temperature.

Explanation:

Nuclear fusion is the combination of atomic nuclei into larger ones with the release of a large amount of energy.

Nuclear fission is the decay process in which a heavy nuclide is bombarded with with neutrons.

Both processes release a huge amount of energy.
But fusion produces far more energy.
The reason why nuclear fusion is not in use is because of the high pressure and temperature needed start it.
The activation energy is high and the energy barrier is very great.
Only the core of the sun naturally favors fusion
