I believe the correct gravity on the moon is 1/6 of Earth.
Take note there is a difference between 1 6 and 1/6.
HOWEVER, we should realize that the trick here is that the
question asks about the MASS of the astronaut and not his weight. Mass is an
inherent property of an object, it is unaffected by external factors such as
gravity. What will change as the astronaut moves from Earth to the moon is his
weight, which has the formula: weight = mass times gravity.
<span>Therefore if he has a mass of 50 kg on Earth, then he will
also have a mass of 50 kg on moon.</span>
Radial acceleration is given by

Using the relation


Putting into rpm
Choice - B is the correct one.
At the top of the arc, at one end of the swing:
-- it's not going to get any higher, so the potential energy is maximum
-- it stops moving for an instant, so the kinetic energy is zero
At the bottom of the arc, in the center of the swing:
-- it's not going to get any lower, so the potential energy is minimum
-- it's not going to move any faster, so the kinetic energy is maximum
Answer:
12.50 m/s
Explanation:
Vi = 9.49 m/s
a = 0.988 m/s²
t = 3.05 s
Vf = ?
Vf = Vi + at
Vf = 9.49 + (0.988)(3.05)
Vf = 12.50 m/s
