If you were to push a pile of books across a table, in which location would this be the easiest?
The moon(my choice)
Earth
Same amount no matter the location
Jupiter
Suppose a large pizza is placed on earth, the moon, and Jupiter. In each location, the pizza weighs 2N. Which pizza would have the least mass?
Jupiter pizza
Moon pizza(my choice)
Earth pizza
Same no matter the location because each pizza weighs 1N
what is the gravity on Jupiter?
To determine the location in which pushing a pile of books across a table would be the easiest, we need to consider the effects of gravity and any external factors.
On the moon, the gravity is much weaker compared to Earth. The moon's gravitational acceleration is approximately 1/6th of Earth's. Therefore, pushing the pile of books across a table on the moon would require less force and effort. So, in this case, pushing the books on the moon would be the easiest.
Regarding the second question, mass is an intrinsic property of an object and does not change with the location. The weight of an object, on the other hand, is the force of gravity acting on it and can vary depending on the gravity of the location.
So, regardless of the location (Earth, the moon, or Jupiter), if the weight of each pizza is 2N, it means the force of gravity acting on the pizza is 2N. Therefore, the mass of each pizza would be the same, and it would not vary based on the location. Hence, all pizzas would have the same mass.
1st one is good
pizzas all have the same weight , so the lowest mass is in the highest gravity
