wait, i get it now. gravitational force is greater on Earth so it would require MORe energy to go from Earth to moon.. answer is A.

yea so i plugged it in but didnt get the right answer. the answer is suppose to be B.

mass of the Earth

Homework Statement How does the work required to stretch a spring 2cm compare with the work required to stretch a spring 1 cm? Homework Equations ? The Attempt at a Solution i think its twice the work

just so you know..answer came out to be m2.. go figure??

yea...i guessed that there were four forces because i was looking over another problem in my book that resembled this problem but i don't understand what the forces are.. but then i checked the answer for this problem just now..and the answer is three froces??

Homework Statement A box is being pulled up a rough incline by a rope connected to a pulley as shown below. The arrows indicate the direction of motion of the blocks. How many forces are doing work on the box? (view attachement) Homework Equations different forces must be taken into...

Homework Statement Two blocks of mass m1 and m2 (m1 > m2) slide on a frictionless floor and have the same kinetic energy when they hit a long rough stretch (coeff. of kinetic friction > 0), which slows them down to a stop. Which one goes farther? Homework Equations W = Fd..iono...
