Explanation:
We start by using the conservation law of energy:
or
Simplifying the above equation, we get
We can rewrite this as
Note that the expression inside the parenthesis is simply the acceleration due to gravity 
so we can write
where 
is the launch velocity.
- c. The weight of an object on the moon will be the same as its weight on Earth. It is false because the weight of an on the moon will be 1/6 th times its weight on Earth.
- d. The weight of an object is its mass multiplied by the force of gravity. The statement is false because the formula of weight is mass × acceleration due to gravity, not force of gravity.
- e. The mass and weight of an object are the same thing. The statement is false because mass means a body of matter. While weight of an object is its mass multiplied by the force of gravity.
- f. The mass of an object is the force of gravity acting upon an object. It is false because it will be the weight of the object not mass.
- So, the answers are c, d, e and f.

Answer:
Water droplets acts as tiny prism in the sky. The sunlight when enters these tiny droplets undergo internal reflection and also refract these rays which are dispersed causing a band of seven colors called rainbow.
Explanation:
Answer:
The first is the closest in absolute values.
The second two are vague and the last is approximate.
Answer:
1.84 kJ (kilojoules)
Explanation:
A specific heat of 0.46 J/g Cº means that it takes 0.46 Joules of energy to raise the temperature of 1 gram of iron by 1 Cº.
If we want to heat 50 g of iron from 20° C to 100° C, we can make the following calculation:
Heat = (specific heat)*(mass)*(temp change)
Heat = (0.46 J/g Cº)*(50g)*(100° C - 20° C)
[Note how the units cancel to yield just Joules]
Heat = 1840 Joules, or 1.84 kJ
[Note that the number is positive: Energy is added to the system. If we used cold iron to cool 50g of 100° C water, the temperature change would be (Final - Initial) or (20° C - 100° C). The number is -1.84 kJ: the negative means heat was removed from the system (the iron).
