If a 1000-pound capsule weighs only 165 pounds on the moon, how much work is done in propelling this capsule out of the moon's gravitational field? (Note: The radius of the moon is roughly 1080 miles)

Respuesta :

Answer:

178200 g mile pounds

Explanation:

Work= Force * Distance= Fh

F=ma=mg where m is mass and g is acceleration due to gravity

Work= 165 pounds *g* 1080 m=  178200 g mile pounds
