Astronauts need sophisticated spacesuits to protect them from the harsh conditions of space. These spacesuits are very heavy for

astronauts to wear on Earth. For an astronaut on the Moon, however, the suit would seem lighter. Which of the following statements explains why the spacesuit would feel lighter on the Moon?
A. There is no gravity on the Moon.
B. Earth’s gravity can’t be felt from the Moon.
C. The force of the Moon’s gravity is less than Earth’s.
D. The force of the Sun’s gravitational attraction varies throughout the Solar System and is stronger closer to Earth.

What controls whether a lava flow is aa or pahoehoe

nevsk [136]

Explanation:

Basaltic lava

Basaltic lava generally takes two distinct forms known by the Hawaiian terms pahoehoe and aa. Pahoehoe has a smooth wavy surface that resembles twisted rope. It advances by extruding molten toes of lava beneath a thin, flexible crust. As it travels pahoehoe lava often changes to blocky flows called aa.

A heavy hall with a mass of 3.5 kg is observed to accelerate

LenKa [72]

Answer:

<h2>21 N</h2>

Explanation:

The force acting on an object given it's mass and acceleration can be found by using the formula

force = mass × acceleration

From the question we have

force = 3.5 × 6

We have the final answer as

<h3>21 N</h3>

Hope this helps you

Creates an image that appears upside down behind the focal point

zheka24 [161]

An image that appears upside down behind the focal point is an image that is reflected on a concave mirror. Mirrors reflect different kinds of images based on the placement of an object that is reflected towards it. There are two kinds of mirrors, concave and a convex mirrors, the latter makes objects seem smaller and farther than where it is exactly.

A freshly prepared sample of radioactive isotope has an activity of 10 mCi. After 4 hours, its activity is 8 mCi. Find: (a) the

Maurinko [17]

Answer:

(a). The decay constant is $1.55\times10^{-5}\ s^{-1}$

The half life is 11.3 hr.

(b). The value of N₀ is $2.38\times10^{11}\ nuclei$

(c). The sample's activity is 1.87 mCi.

Explanation:

Given that,

Activity $R_{0}=10\ mCi$

Time $t_{1}=4\ hours$

Activity R= 8 mCi

(a). We need to calculate the decay constant

Using formula of activity

$R=R_{0}e^{-\lambda t}$

$\lambda=\dfrac{1}{t}ln(\dfrac{R_{0}}{R})$

Put the value into the formula

$\lambda=\dfrac{1}{4\times3600}ln(\dfrac{10}{8})$

$\lambda=0.0000154\ s^{-1}$

$\lambda=1.55\times10^{-5}\ s^{-1}$

We need to calculate the half life

Using formula of half life

$T_{\dfrac{1}{2}}=\dfrac{ln(2)}{\lambda}$

Put the value into the formula

$T_{\dfrac{1}{2}}=\dfrac{ln(2)}{1.55\times10^{-5}}$

$T_{\dfrac{1}{2}}=44.719\times10^{3}\ s$

$T_{\dfrac{1}{2}}=11.3\ hr$

(b). We need to calculate the value of N₀

Using formula of $N_{0}$

$N_{0}=\dfrac{3.70\times10^{6}}{\lambda}$

Put the value into the formula

$N_{0}=\dfrac{3.70\times10^{6}}{1.55\times10^{-5}}$

$N_{0}=2.38\times10^{11}\ nuclei$

(c). We need to calculate the sample's activity

Using formula of activity

$R=R_{0}e^{-\lambda\times t}$

Put the value intyo the formula

$R=10e^{-(1.55\times10^{-5}\times30\times3600)}$

$R=1.87\ mCi$

Hence, (a). The decay constant is $1.55\times10^{-5}\ s^{-1}$

The half life is 11.3 hr.

(b). The value of N₀ is $2.38\times10^{11}\ nuclei$

(c). The sample's activity is 1.87 mCi.
