Games in Space: On Earth, an astronaut throws a ball straight upward, and it stays in the air for a total of 3.0s before they ca

tch it at the same height they released it. On the Moon, acceleration due to gravity is ∼ 1/6 the value on Earth. If the astronaut repeats this process on the Moon, giving the ball the same initial speed, how much time would pass before they catch it

if an object is thrown upwards and then it will return back into our hand then we can say for the complete motion the displacement of the object must be zero

so here we will have

\Delta y = vt + \frac{1}{2}at^2

here we know that

0 = vt - \frac{1}{2}gt^2

t = \frac{2v}{g}

now we will have this time t = 3 s on the surface of earth

again same experiment is performed on surface of moon with same initial speed

so the time on the surface of moon will be

t_{moon} = \frac{2v}{g/6}

so here we have

t_{moon} = 6\frac{2v}{g} = 6(3) =18 s

so it will take 18 s on moon

Which object had more potential energy when it was lifted to a distance of 1000 centimeters? Show your calculation.
RSB [31]

Explanation:

We Know That

POTENTIAL ENERGY= MASS*g*HEIGHT

When the objects are lifted to same height then the object with heavier mass would have the highest potential energy

A satellite dish is shaped like a paraboloid of revolution. This means that it can be formed by rotating a parabola around its a
pentagon [3]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given dish width= 48ft

Depth = 4ft

Using equation of a parabola

x²= 4py

48² = 4p 4

4p = 576

P= 144ft

Thus the the receiver should be placed 144ft from t the vertex
