The horizontal distance that the cannonball will travel is 383.33m

In order to find the horizontal distance, we will use the formula for calculating the range expressed as:

R = u\sqrt{\frac{2H}{g} } where:

u is the velocity

H is the height

g is the acceleration due to gravity

R = 120\sqrt{\frac{2(50)}{9.8} }\\R = 120\sqrt{\frac{100}{9.8} } \\R=120\times 3.1943\\R=383.33m

Hence the horizontal distance that the cannonball will travel is 383.33m

What would be the weight of the moon if it were resting on the surface of the earth
kari74 [83]
We need to be careful here.
The calculation of the gravitational force between two objects
refers to the distance between their centers. 
The minimum possible distance between the Earth's and moon's
centers is the sum of their radii (radiuses).

Earth's radius . . . . .  6,360 km  =  6.36 x 10⁶ meters
Moon's radius . . . . .  1,738 km  =  1.738 x 10⁶ meters
Sum of their radii  =                      8.098 x 10⁶ meters

Also:
Earth's mass . . . . .  5.972 x 10²⁴ kg
Moon's mass . . . . .  7.348 x 10²²  kg
<span>
and now we're ready to go !

       Gravitational force = 

                   G  M₁ M₂ / R²

= (6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N-m²/kg²)(</span><span>5.972 x 10²⁴ kg)(7.348 x 10²²  kg)/</span>(8.098 x 10⁶ m)²

= (6.67 · 5.972 · 7.348 / 8.098²) · (10²³)      Newtons

=    (I get ...)        4.463 x 10²³ Newtons

That's almost exactly   10²³ pounds 

                           =  50,153,000,000,000,000,000 tons.     

Those are big numbers. 
All I can say is:  I wouldn't exactly call that "resting" on the surface".

Test Due! Which statement is true?
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

The correct answer is C. Mercury and Mars have the same gravitational force

Explanation:

This chart compares the different features of two planets in our solar system (Mercury and Mars). In this chart, the only numerical value or feature that is the same for both planets is gravity because for both planets gravity is 1.7 m/s2. This implies the gravitational force or the force that attracts objects towards the center of the planet is the same or that objects are pulled with the same force in both planets. Moreover, this factor depends on others such as mass, density, among others.

Why is the solar system commonly represented as a scale model?
topjm [15]
The actual size of the Solar system is too big to show without making a much smaller model. If someone wants to see the orientation of the planets a model has to be made so we can see it without flying out too space.
