If gravity on the earth increased, what affect would it have on the moon

Physics
1 answer:
Rufina [12.5K]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

If gravity on Earth is increased, this gravitational tugging would have influenced the moon's rotation rate. If it was spinning more than once per orbit, Earth would pull at a slight angle against the moon's direction of rotation, slowing its spin. If the moon was spinning less than once per orbit, Earth would have pulled the other way, speeding its rotation.

Ashen light (or earthshine) is
Annette [7]

Answer:

E

Explanation:

The condition known as Earth shine takes place when the reflecting sunlight from our world illuminates the Moon's dark side. This is usually the result that the dark side of the moon is showered in a dim, faint light. It is also called  as the ashen light of the Moon, or in the wings of the new Moon as the old Moon.

Therefore the correct reason would be e. sunlight reflected by Earth that illuminates the "dark" portion of the Moon.

How much work is done when a hoist lifts a 210-kg rock to a height of 3 m? (Use 9.8 m/s2 for the acceleration due to gravity.)
Aleksandr [31]

Work done to lift the rock is 6174 Joule.

To find the answer, we need to know about the work done.

<h3>What's the work done?</h3>

Mathematically, work done = force × distance

<h3>What's the gravitational force acts on the stone here?</h3>

The gravitational force on the stone = mg

= 210× 9.8= 2058N

<h3>What's the work done to lift the stone?</h3>

Work done= 2058× 3

= 6174 Joule

Thus, we can conclude that the work done to lift the stone is 6174 Joule.

The average marathon runner can complete the 42.2-km distance of the marathon in 3 h and 30 min. If the runner's mass is 85 kg,
Semenov [28]

Answer:

the runner's average kinetic energy during the run is 476.96 J.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the runner, m = 85 kg

distance covered by the runner, d = 42.2 km = 42,200 m

time to complete the race, t = 3 hours 30 mins = (3 x 3600s) + (30 x 60s)

                                                                               = 12,600 s

The speed of the runner, v = d/t

                                          v = 42,200 / 12,600

                                          v = 3.35 m/s

The runner's average kinetic energy during the run is calculated as;

K.E = ¹/₂mv²

K.E = ¹/₂ × 85 × (3.35)²

K.E = 476.96 J

Therefore, the runner's average kinetic energy during the run is 476.96 J.
