Using software, a simulation of a javelin being thrown both on Earth and on the moon is created. In both cases, the velocity and

angle of projection are kept the same. On Earth, the javelin covers a distance y. What distance would it cover on the moon? (The moon’s gravity is about 1/6th that of Earth.)

x =  (v_{0}) ^{2} *   \frac{sin 2 \alpha}{g} + x_{0}

If g goes down by a factor of 6, the distance x goes up by a factor of 6.

Horizontal distance covered by a projectile is X = Vix *T

where Vix is the initial horizontal component of velocity and T is time taken by the projectile

Vix = ViCos theta

In question they said that initial velocity and angle is same on earth and moon

so Vix would remains same

now let's see about time taken T

time taken to reach the highest point

Vfy = Viy +gt

at highest point vertical velocity become zero so Vfy =0

0 = Vi Sin theta + gt

t = Vi Sintheta /g

Total time taken to land will be twice of that

On earth

Te= 2t

Te = 2Sinθ/g

on moon g is one-sixth of g(earth)

Tm = 2Sinθ/(g/6)

Tm = 6(2Sinθ/g)

Tm = 6Te

so total time taken by the projectile on moon will be six times the time taken on earth

From first equation X = Vix*T

we can see that X will also be 6 times on moon than earth

so projectile will cover 6 times distance on moon than on earth

B- the biosphere needs the hydrosphere (water) to survive. They drink the water.
C- the biosphere use the géosphère as land/ home.
D-The géosphère depends on the hydrosphere for water. Without the water, the géosphère would eventually turn dry and nothing will be able to grow
E- The animals in the hydrosphere need air to survive. The gills on sea animals are used to filter out the water from the oxygen and use the oxygen to breathe. As the fish opens its mouth, water runs over the gills, and blood in the capillaries picks up oxygen that's dissolved in the water.
