NASA has proposed a mission to one of Jupiter's moons to look for potential signs of life. The spacecraft will have 9,862.5 Joul

es of potential energy when it is 60 meters above the surface. If the spacecraft has a mass of 125 kg, what is the gravitational constant of the moon? (units will be m/s^2)

Answer: The gravitational constant of the moon is 1.315ms^{-2}

Explanation:

Potential energy is the energy possessed by a body by virtue of its position.

P.E=mgh

where

P.E = potential energy = 9862.5 J

m = mass of object = 125 kg

g =  gravitation constant   = ?

h = height of object = 60 m

Putting the values we get :

9862.5kgm^2s^{-2}=125kg\times g\times 60m

g=1.315ms^{-2}

Sever21 [200]

Explanation:

An autoimmune disorder occurs when the body sees it's own cells as foreign antigens and begins to attack them.

The treatment depends on the particular autoimmune disorder; however, the mainstay of treatment is the use of IMMUNOSUPPRESSIVE MEDICATION. Examples include corticosteroids (such as prednisone) and nonsteroid drugs such as azathioprine, cyclophosphamide, mycophenolate, sirolimus, or tacrolimus.

How does killing whales affect the food chain?
sukhopar [10]

Whales play an important role in stabilizing the aquatic food chain and reproduction of other species.

As more whales are killed the food distribution in the ocean becomes destabilized and causes changes in the food supply of many other kinds of marine life.

Whales are vital to the food chain, stabilising food flow and maintaining a healthy ocean.

As such, the rapidly decreasing whale population will have major effects on the ocean's ecosystem.

Believe it or not, whale poop also serves quite an important purpose to the ecosystem.
