Need Help? 17. The moon’s gravity is 1/6 that of the earth. If I jumped straight up in the air on the moon and on Earth, which place would I be able to jump higher? a. The moon b. The Earth c. It would be the same height at each place d. Not enough information

OpenStudy (blazeryder):

Lets say that you weighed 150 pounds on Earth. You would then weigh 24.9 pounds on the moon. Your muscles on the moon can exert the same amount of Newtons as they can on Earth. Knowing this information can you tell me what you think the answer is?

OpenStudy (<3pandas18):

thank u! I already got thr answer its a But could you help me with another question I have most of It done I just need a little help @BlazeRyder

OpenStudy (blazeryder):

I can but I am not promising I can fully answer you =)

OpenStudy (<3pandas18):

ok thanks

OpenStudy (<3pandas18):

ok I needtosolve this I figured out what formula I need to use and what info is useful but how can I find the t in the equation if I don't have time yet

OpenStudy (blazeryder):

You would have to rearrange the equation. Do you know how to do that?

OpenStudy (<3pandas18):

um kinda not really

OpenStudy (<3pandas18):

is it this? 2x = 2vt - at^2

OpenStudy (blazeryder):

What does the ViT stand for in the equation. I know a stands for 9.81m/s and the T at the end of the equation stands for time.

OpenStudy (blazeryder):

Sorry, there should be a question mark at the end of the first sentence.... =)

OpenStudy (blazeryder):

Is this question in a Physics class?

OpenStudy (<3pandas18):

actually in the problem A would be 23.6 because it given to us already. vi= 0m/s that's the initial velocity. and x= displacement= 88.3m/s so what I need is the t which is time

OpenStudy (<3pandas18):

yeah its a question in physics

OpenStudy (blazeryder):

Okay, I am actually taking a Physics class this school year. Give me one sec, trying to figure it out.

OpenStudy (<3pandas18):

ok thnks

OpenStudy (<3pandas18):

I actually got help I'm not trying to be lazy. The equation and everything I got help from y physics teacher but now I don't know how to solve without the t given

OpenStudy (blazeryder):

I think the equation is wrong. In my Physics book the equation looks like this: \[\Delta Y=\frac{ 1 }{ 2 } \times a _{y} \times (\Delta t)^2\]

OpenStudy (<3pandas18):

oh wow had not seen hat before. I go to connections academy i was taught to use these formulas

OpenStudy (<3pandas18):

OpenStudy (blazeryder):

Then the equation would look like : \[T=\frac{ \sqrt{T \Delta Ya} }{ a }\]

OpenStudy (<3pandas18):

oh ok well ill try and see if I can solve it..... but thank u though

OpenStudy (blazeryder):

This is how I solved it: \[T=\frac{ \sqrt{2 \times Deltay \times a} }{ a }\] \[T=\frac{ \sqrt{2 \times 88.3 \times 23.6} }{ 23.6 }\] \[T=\frac{ \sqrt{4,167.67} }{ 23.6 }\] \[T=\frac{ 64.5574937556 }{23.6 }\] \[T=2.73 seconds\]

OpenStudy (<3pandas18):

oh my god thank u so much!

OpenStudy (blazeryder):

Your welcome! I had a similar question like this about 2 weeks and and I asked it here on OS in the physics category. I have learned with Physics they give you formulas and you can rearrange them to find answers different things. Also if you need help, go to Khan Academy. They have a lot of Physics videos. =)

OpenStudy (<3pandas18):

ok thank u once again

OpenStudy (blazeryder):

No problem. Glad I could help!
