weight less on moon than on earth.

high on lift off - G force

low in orbit.

zero at a point between earth and moon

Answer:

<em>Due to gravitational force</em>

We know that,

            weight (W) =  m. g  Newtons

            Where m = mass , in Kg

                        g = gravitational force (m/s²)

                           = 9.8 m/s (it is constant on earth)

        <em>  So, from equation we knew that Weight is proportional to the gravitational force assuming fixed mass.</em>

<em>       On the moon the gravitational force (g) is very less compared to the earth gravitational force, i.e., </em><em>1.62 m/s²</em>

<em>        Therefore from equation of weight</em><em> W = m. g</em><em> is very less by considering the gravitational force on moon.</em>

So, obviously weight changes on moon due to gravitational pull

Over [174]
What are the choices ? 

Without some directed choices, I'm, free to make up any
reasonable statement that could be said about Kevin in this
situation.  A few of them might be . . .

-- Kevin will have no trouble getting back in time for dinner.

-- Kevin will have no time to enjoy the scenery along the way.

-- Some simple Physics shows us that Kevin is out of his mind.
He can't really do that.

           -- Speed = (distance covered) / (time to cover the distance) .

If time to cover the distance is zero, then speed is huge (infinite).

           -- Kinetic energy = (1/2) (mass) (speed)² .

If speed is huge (infinite), then kinetic energy is huge squared (even more).
There is not enough energy in the galaxy to push Kevin to that kind of speed.

         -- Mass = (Kevin's rest-mass) / √(1 - v²/c²)

-- As soon as Kevin reaches light-speed, his mass becomes infinite.
-- It takes an infinite amount of energy to push him any faster.
-- If he succeeds somehow, his mass becomes imaginary.
-- At that point, he might as well turn around and go home ...
     if he ever reached Planet-Y, nobody could see him anyway.

kaheart [24]

Answer:

You are a guest magician in a circus. One of your tricks is to place a football on an inclined plane without the football rolling over is explained below in details.

Explanation:

spinning ball halts after traveling some range due to friction energy act different direction of movement of the ball. you can observe in the figure.

Let any rolling ball of mass (m ) is traveling with velocity v ,

common effect on ball (N) = mg

because of motion, friction energy develops on the contact exterior and begins to resist the movement of the rolling ball.

hence,

fr = uN = umg act on communicating exterior, so, after any time due to friction energy rolling ball gets to rest.
