You would have to give it more mechanical energy.
Like, strap a bunch of powerful rockets to one side of the moon, with all of them pointing in the direction that the moon is already moving in its orbit. Then blast away.
NOTE: There aren't enough rockets or rocket fuel on Earth to make a difference, even if you used ALL of them. The mass of the moon is about
<em>73,476,730,900,000,000,000,000 kilograms</em>
(rounded to the nearest hundred trillion kilograms.)
That's a lot.
Explanation:
Show that the motion of a mass attached to the end of a spring is SHM
Consider a mass "m" attached to the end of an elastic spring. The other end of the spring is fixed
at the a firm support as shown in figure "a". The whole system is placed on a smooth horizontal surface.
If we displace the mass 'm' from its mean position 'O' to point "a" by applying an external force, it is displaced by '+x' to its right, there will be elastic restring force on the mass equal to F in the left side which is applied by the spring.
According to "Hook's Law
F = - Kx ---- (1)
Negative sign indicates that the elastic restoring force is opposite to the displacement.
Where K= Spring Constant
If we release mass 'm' at point 'a', it moves forward to ' O'. At point ' O' it will not stop but moves forward towards point "b" due to inertia and covers the same displacement -x. At point 'b' once again elastic restoring force 'F' acts upon it but now in the right side. In this way it continues its motion
from a to b and then b to a.
According to Newton's 2nd law of motion, force 'F' produces acceleration 'a' in the body which is given by
F = ma ---- (2)
Comparing equation (1) & (2)
ma = -kx
Here k/m is constant term, therefore ,
a = - (Constant)x
or
a a -x
This relation indicates that the acceleration of body attached to the end elastic spring is directly proportional to its displacement. Therefore its motion is Simple Harmonic Motion.
Answer:
It has very high density, so a small bulb of a thermometer can contain much mercury. Mercury remains liquid state over a quite wide range of temperature because it freezes at 39°C and boils at 357°C.
Explanation:
The wavelength of the radio waves is 3.04 cm.
<h3>Calculation:</h3>
λf = c
λ = c/f
where,
λ = wavelength
c = speed of light
f = frequency
Given,
f = 98.6 MHz = 98.6 × 10⁶
c = 3 × 10⁸
To find,
λ =?
Put the values in the formula,
λ = c/f
λ = 3 × 10⁸/98.6 × 10⁶
= 0.0304 × 10² m
= 3.04 cm
Therefore, the wavelength of the radio waves is 3.04 cm.
