Choose the best explanation from among the following: A. It takes more energy to go from the Moon to the Earth because the Moon

is orbiting the Earth. B. The escape speed of the Moon is less than that of the Earth; therefore, less energy is required to leave the Moon. C. The situation is symmetric, and hence the same amount of energy is required to travel in either direction.

Answer:

B. The escape speed of the Moon is less than that of the Earth; therefore, less energy is required to leave the Moon.

Explanation:

Since the speed required to escape from the gravitational attraction of the Moon is less than the speed required to escape from the gravitational attraction of the Earth, less energy is required to travel from the Moon to the Earth, than is required to travel from the Earth to the Moon. This is because the kinetic energy is directly proportional to the square of the velocity.

How does a generator produce an electric current
love history [14]

Electric generator is a device that converts mechanical energy obtained from an external source into electrical energy as an output. It was discovered that the above flow of electric charges could be induced by moving an electrical conductor such as a wire that contains electric charges in a magnetic field

How does absorption spectra occur?
Arlecino [84]

An absorption spectrum occurs when light passes through a cold, dilute gas and atoms in the gas absorb at characteristic frequencies; since the re-emitted light is unlikely to be emitted in the same direction as the absorbed photon, this gives rise to dark lines (absence of light) in the spectrum.

hope this helped :)

A cleaner pushes a 4.50-kg laundry cart in such a way that the net external force on it is 60.0 N. Calculate the magnitude of it
liq [111]

Answer:

The acceleration of the laundry cart is 13.3 m/s²

Explanation:

Hi there!

According to Newton's second law, the sum of all forces acting on an object in a given direction is equal to the mass of the object times its acceleration in that direction:

∑F = m · a

Where:

∑F = net force acting on the cart.

m = mass of the cart.

a = acceleration.

Then, solving this equation for the acceleration:

∑F / m = a

60.0 N / 4.50 kg = a

a = 13.3 m/s²

The acceleration of the laundry cart is 13.3 m/s²
