Why does an object have a different weight on the moon than it does on Earth? Everything is weightless in space. Objects move mo

re slowly on the moon. There is no air on the moon, so objects are lighter. The Earth and moon have different values for the acceleration due to gravity.

The answer is:

<span>The Earth and Moon have different values for the acceleration due to gravity.

-- "Weight" is the gravitational attraction between TWO objects.

-- Its 'strength' depends on the mass of BOTH masses.
If either mass changes, then the gravitational force between them changes.

-- Your 'weight' on Earth depends on your mass and the Earth's mass.

-- Your 'weight on the moon depends on your mass and the Moon's mass.

From the list of choices, the best one is  "The Earth and moon have
different values for the acceleration due to gravity.", although that
doesn't really explain much.

Vector sum of 15 m, East and 9 m, West is 24 m, East. True False
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Because when you go through east

( +x axis ) then you go to west ( -x axis )

You will subtract -9 from +15

it's become +6

( I talk about the displacement not distance) ( West = - East )

I hope that it's a clear ") .

The latent heat of vaporization for ethyl alcohol is 854 J/g. The amount of energy, rounded to the nearest whole number, needed
Lorico [155]

Answer:

4441 J

Explanation:

The amount of energy needed to change the ethyl alcohol from liquid to gas state is given by

Q=m \lambda_v

where

m = 5.20 g is the mass of the alcohol

\lambda_v = 854 J/g is the latent heat of vaporization of the substance

Substituting the numbers into the formula, we find:

Q=(5.20 g)(854 J/g)=4,441 J
