The Moon's gravity is much less than the Earth's gravity - approximately one sixth. So, a 100 kg astronaut weighs 980N on Earth. On the Moon, the astronaut would weigh only 162.2N. However, the astronaut's mass is 100kg where-ever they are.

Answer: Gravity causes a change in the mass of objects on earth and the moon.

Explanation:

Because of gravity, the weight of objects lessen, and decrease because of gravity. If you were to drop an object from earth from space, the object would have more mass. Hope that helps.

Cho lực F ⃗=6x^3 i ⃗-4yj ⃗ tác dụng lên vật làm vật chuyển động từ A(-2,5) đến B(4,7). Vậy công của lực là:
Natasha2012 [34]

The work done by \vec F along the given path <em>C</em> from <em>A</em> to <em>B</em> is given by the line integral,

\displaystyle \int_C \mathbf F\cdot\mathrm d\mathbf r

I assume the path itself is a line segment, which can be parameterized by

\vec r(t) = (1-t)(-2\,\vec\imath + 5\,\vec\jmath) + t(4\,\vec\imath+7\,\vec\jmath) \\\\ \vec r(t) = (6t-2)\,\vec\imath+(2t+5)\,\vec\jmath \\\\ \vec r(t) = x(t)\,\vec\imath + y(t)\,\vec\jmath

with 0 ≤ <em>t</em> ≤ 1. Then the work performed by <em>F</em> along <em>C</em> is

\displaystyle \int_0^1 \left(6x(t)^3\,\vec\imath-4y(t)\,\vec\jmath\right)\cdot\frac{\mathrm d}{\mathrm dt}\left[x(t)\,\vec\imath + y(t)\,\vec\jmath\right]\,\mathrm dt \\\\ = \int_0^1 (288(3t-1)^3-8(2t+5)) \,\mathrm dt = \boxed{312}

Which statement is true? A. A resistor alters current and a switch turns current on and off B. A resistor measures voltage, and
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

A. A resistor alters current and a switch turns current on and off

Explanation:

Resistor is the passive component that reduces the flow of current. Switch is the electrical device that turns on or off the current by closing and opening the electrical circuit.

Thus option A. A resistor alters current and a switch turns current on and off  is correct.

If one bulb broke in series circuit the other will light up ?
Charra [1.4K]
It makes no difference whether there are two bulbs or 1000 bulbs. If they are all in series then when one bulb burns out, or one little piece of wire between two bulbs comes loose, ALL of them go dark. In that situation it's a challenge to find where the break in the circuit is because all of the bulbs are dark.
