A planet has two moons, Moon A and Moon B, that orbit at different distances from the planet's center, as shown. Astronomerscoll

ect data regarding the planet, the two moons, and their obits. The astronomers are able to estimate the planet's radius and
mass.
The masses of the two moons are determined to be 2M for Moon A and M for Moon B. It is observed that the distance
between Moon B and the planet is two times that of the distance between Moon A and the planet. How does force exerted from
the planet on Moon A compare to the force exerted from the planet on Moon B?




READ CAREFULLY PLEASE


A) The gravitational force exerted from the planet on Moon A is two times larger than the gravitational force exerted from the planet on Moon B

B) The gravitational force exerted from the planet on Moon A is eight times larger than the gravitational force exerted from the planet on Moon B

C) The gravitational force exerted from the planet on Moon A is two times smaller than the gravitational force exerted from the planet on Moon B

D) The gravitational force exerted from the planet on Moon A is eight times smaller than the gravitational force exerted from the planet on Moon B

A girl pulls on a 10-kg wagon with a constant horizontal force of 30 N. If there are no other horizontal forces, what is the wag
strojnjashka [21]
Force equals mass*distance
F = ma

Given m = 10 kg, F = 30 N

30 = 10a
30/10 = a
3 = a

The wagon's acceleration is 3 m/s^2

murzikaleks [220]
The description of the question provided above points out to the famous Big Bang Theory. In addition, this theory is among the most accepted by cosmologists because it fits like a glove to the phenomenon the universe is experiencing right now: it is expanding and distances between celestial bodies are getting farther and farther.
