When we say "<span>The moon's surface gravity is one-sixth that of the earth.",
we mean that the acceleration of gravity on the Moon's surface is 1/6 of
the acceleration of gravity on the Earth's surface.

The acceleration of gravity is (9.8 m/s</span>²) on the Earth's surface, so
<span>it would be (9.8/6 m/s</span>²) on the Moon's surface.
<span>
The weight of any object, right now, is

(object's mass) </span>· (acceleration of gravity where the object is located now) .
<span>
If the object's mass is 24 kg and the object is on the Moon right now,
then its weight is 

(24 kg) </span>· (9.8/6 m/s²)

= (24 · 9.8 / 6) kg-m/s²

= 39.2 Newtons

If a car goes at a speed of 80 kph in 10 seconds, what is the distance
Blababa [14]

Answer:222 meters

Explanation:

Speed=80kph=(80x5/18)=(80x5)/18=22.2m/s

Time=10 seconds

distance=speed x time

distance=22.2 x 10

distance=222

distance=222 meters

A metabolic waste of algae that can be recycled for use in cellular respiration is
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:oxygen

Explanation:algae are plants that lives in aquatic habitat,with a few of them occurring in land. Algae have chlorophyll and as a result are autotrophic in nutrition. Algae uses carbon dioxide as a raw material for photosynthesis which is the process where they produce food. They also give off oxygen which results from the splitting of water by light.

This oxygen given off is used by organisms for cellular respiration.the mitochondria is the organelle responsible it's utilization in respiration and carbon dioxide is given off.oxygen serves as an electron acceptor in the energy producing process in the mitochondria. It is an important gas for aerobic respiration.
