Objects are lighter on the moon than they are on earth. if an object A weighs 25lbs on the Moon and another object B weighs 25 N
1 answer:
Answer:
a. Object A
Explanation:
The mass of an object implies the quantity of matter in it, while the weight is the amount of gravitational force applied on an object.
The object A has a mass of 25 lbs, but object B on the earth has a weight, W, of 25 N.
So that,
For object A on the moon, mass = 25 lbs
For object B on the earth, W = 25 N,
W = m x g
25 = m x 10 (g = 10 m/)
m =
= 2.5 lbs
Mass of object B is 2.5 lbs.
Therefore, the mass of the object A is more than that of B.

Answer:
a.) a = 0 ms⁻²
b.) a = 9.58 ms⁻²
c.) a = 7.67 ms⁻²
Explanation:
a.)
Acceleration (a) is defined as the time rate of change of velocity
Given data
Final velocity = v₂ = 0 m/s
Initial velocity = v ₁ = 0 m/s
As the space shuttle remain at rest for the first 2 minutes i.e there is no change in velocity so,
a = 0 ms⁻²
b.)
Given data
As the space shuttle start from rest, So initial velocity is zero
Initial velocity = v₁ = 0 ms⁻¹
Final velocity = v₂ = 4600 ms⁻¹
Time = t = 8 min = 480 s
By the definition of Acceleration (a)
a = 9.58 ms⁻²
c.)
Given data
As the space shuttle is at rest for first 2 min then start moving, So initial velocity is zero
Initial velocity = v₁ = 0 ms⁻¹
Final velocity = v₂ = 4600 ms⁻¹
Time = t = 10 min = 600 s
By the definition of Acceleration (a)
a = 7.67 ms⁻²
