It's difficult because the temperature is obviously maintained well if it's designated a specific heat.
<span>It's another energy balance equation, though: energy to start with is the same as energy that you end with. Suppose that we start a distance r0 from the Earth and end a distance r1 from the Moon, then the energy balance gives:
1 v02 - G M / r0 - G m / (D - r0) = 1 v12 - G M / (D - r1) - G m / r1
...where m is the moon's mass.
One simple limit takes D ? ? and 1 v02 ? G M / r0 (the escape velocity equation), to yield:
1 v12 ? G M / r1
v1 ? ?( 2 G M / r1 ) = 2377 m/s.</span>
Explanation:
Watts are defined as 1 Watt = 1 Joule per second (1W = 1 J/s)
which means that 1 kW = 1000 J/s. A Watt is the amount of energy (in Joules) that an electrical device (such as a light) is burning per second that it's running.
