Find the weight of an astronaut whose mass is 75 kg on the moon

1 answer:

8 0

The formula for weight is always weight=mass X gravitational field strength.
We already know the mass is 75kg.
The gravitational field strength on the moon is 1.6N. To find out the weight, we can substitute these values in to the formula.
Weight=75 X 1.6
Weight= 120N
Weight is measured on Neutons as it is a force.

The answer is C 8.87*10^4 m/s (it shouldn't be m/s^2 though as velocity is in m/s)

Since you know the acceleration is 12 m/s^2, the initial velocity is 2.39*10^4 m/s and the time (you have to convert to seconds) is 5400 seconds, then you can use the equation

v = vo + at

When you plug in the values you get

v = 2.39*10^4 + 5400*12 . so v = 8.87*10^4 m/s. C is your answer.

The velocity of a ball changes from ‹ 9, −6, 0 › m/s to ‹ 8.96, −6.12, 0 › m/s in 0.02 s, due to the gravitational attraction of

Answer:

a) $a=(-2,-6,0)m/s^2$ , with a magnitude of $6.3m/s^2$

b) $\frac{\Delta p}{\Delta t}=(-0.24,-0.72,0)Kgm/s^2$ , with a magnitude of $0.76Kgm/s^2$

c) $F=(-0.24,-0.72,0)N$ , with a magnitude of $0.76N$

Explanation:

We have:

$v_{ix}=9m/s, v_{iy}=-6m/s, v_{iz}=0m/s\\v_{fx}=8.96m/s, v_{fy}=-6.12m/s, v_{fz}=0m/s\\t=0.02s, m=0.12Kg$

We can calculate each component of the acceleration using its definition $a=\frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}$

$a_x=\frac{v_{fx}-v_{ix}}{t} = \frac{(8.96m/s)-(9m/s)}{0.02s} =-2m/s^2\\a_y=\frac{v_{fy}-v_{iy}}{t} = \frac{(-6.12m/s)-(-6m/s)}{0.02s} =-6m/s^2\\a_y=\frac{v_{fz}-v_{iz}}{t} = \frac{(0m/s)-(0m/s)}{0.02s} =0m/s^2\\$
