Is the facceleration due to gravity the same on Earth and Earth's moon?

Physics
1 answer:
Alchen [17]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Earth's average surface gravity is about 9.8 meters per second per second. ... The Moon's surface gravity is weaker because it is far less massive than Earth. A body's surface gravity is proportional to its mass but inversely proportional to the square of its radius.

If you apply a net force of 5N on a cart with a mass of 5 kg, show that the acceleration is 1 m/s2.
Svetlanka [38]

Answer: F = 5kg x 1 m/s2 = 5 N

Explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to apply the next formula:

Force (F) = mass x acceleration

Replacing with the values given and solving for F (force)

F = 5kg x 1 m/s2 = 5 kgm/s2

Since 1 Newton (N) = 1 kgm/s2

F = 5N

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.

If you have a calendar that shows only the phases of the moon,can you predict when spring tides and neap tides will happen ?
otez555 [7]
Moon orbits earth. it's viewable somewhere in the world every 28 days. if the place where it's viewed were by the sea, then the tidal patterns of water - high tide and low tide - could be correlated to the moon being seen or otherwise. If the moon is is visible, it presumably gives one gravitational pull on the water. If the moon is not visible, then it presumably gives a less gravitational pull. Maybe "spring" suggests a high high tide (as in growth ?) and "neap" suggests a low high tide ???

Match the letter and term.
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

1. Nitrogen

2. Oxygen

3. Carbon dioxide

4. Water vapor

5. Ozone

Explanation:

The atmosphere composes of 78% nitrogen which occupies the largest percentage followed by oxygen which takes up 21%, Argon takes up 1% then other components such as water vapor occupy between 0-7% and ozone takes 0.0-0.01. Moreover, 0.01-0.1 is occupied by carbon dioxide. Therefore, the answers for 1-5 are as follows.

1. Nitrogen

2. Oxygen

3. Carbon dioxide

4. Water vapor

5. Ozone

The heat flow into the sample in the segment ________ will yield the value of the heat of fusion of this substance
SpyIntel [72]

The heat flows into the sample in the segment <u>    BC    </u>    will yield the value of the heat of fusion of this substance.

<h3>Heat of fusion:</h3>

The heat of the fusion of water is unusually high. The amount of heat required to convert 1 g of solid into a liquid while maintaining the same temperature is known as the heat of fusion. It is a latent heat as well and is occasionally referred to as the latent heat of fusion. Since water only freezes at a single temperature (0 °C), it only has one value, which is 79.71 cal/g, or the rounded amount of 80 cal/g.

In order to control frost, water fuses at a high temperature. The water used for irrigation is frequently consistently above freezing when it is extracted from the ground.

A ball thrown horizontally at 12.6 m/s from the roof of a building lands 20.0 m from the base of the building
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

1.59 seconds

12.3 meters

but if you are wise you will read the entire answer.

Explanation:

This is a good question -- if not a bit unusual. You should try and understand the details. It will come in handy.

Time

<u>Given</u>

a = 0 This is the critical point. There is no horizontal acceleration.

d = 20 m

v = 12.6 m/s

<u>Formula</u>

d = vi * t + 1/2at^2

<u>Solution</u>

Since the acceleration is 0, the formula reduces to

d = vi * t

20 = 12.6 * t

t = 20 / 12.6

t = 1.59 seconds.

It takes 1.59 seconds to hit the ground

Height of the building

<u>Givens</u>

t = 1.59 sec

vi = 0     Another critical point. The beginning speed vertically is 0

a = 9.8 m/s^2   The acceleration is vertical.

<u>Formula</u>

d = vi*t + 1/2 a t^2

<u>Solution</u>

d = 1/2 a*t^2

d = 1/2 * 9.8 * 1.59^2

d = 12.3 meters.

The two vi's are not to be confused. The horizontal vi is a number other other 0 (in this case 12.6 m/s horizontally)

The other vi is a vertical speed. It is 0.
