The acceleration due to gravity on the surface of the moon is 1.62m/s^2. The moon's radius is Rm+1738km. A) What is the weight in newtons on the surface of the moon of an object that has a mass of 10kg? B) Determine the force extend on the object by the gravity of the moon if the object is located 1738km above the moon's surface.

Respuesta :

Answer:

weight is 12.6 N

force is 4.05 N

Explanation:

given data

acceleration = 1.62 m/s²

radius = 1738 km

mass = 10 kg

distance = 1738 km

to find out

weight and force

solution

we apply here weight formula that is

weight =  mass × acceleration    ...................1

put here value

weight =  10 × 1.26

weight = 12.6 N

and

force = mass × An

force = 10 × 1.62 (1738/ 1738+1738)² = 4.05 N

so force is 4.05 N
