A spaceship lifts off vertically from the Moon, where g = 1.6 m/s2. If the ship has an upward acceleration of 1.0 m/s2 as it lifts off, what is the magnitude of the force exerted by the ship on its pilot, who weighs 735 N on Earth?
When the Moon is directly overhead at sunset, the force by Earth on the Moon, FEM, is essentially at 90° to the force by the Sun on the Moon, FSM, as shown below. FEM=1.98×10^20N and FSM=4.36×10^20N, all other forces on the Moon are negligible, and the mass of the Moon is 7.35×10^22kg. 1. Write an expression for the magnitude of the acceleration of the Moon. 2. What is the acceleration of the Moon in m/s^2?
An Atwood’s machine is made of two masses, a string and a pulley. The string goes over the pulley and the pulley rotates freely with no friction. The pulley is so light it can be considered massless.

A space probe has two engines. Each generates the same amount of force when fired, and the directions of these forces can be independently adjusted. When the engines are fired simultaneously and each applies its force in the same direction, the probe, starting from rest, takes 38.3 s to travel a certain distance. How long does it take to travel the same distance, again starting from rest, if the engines are fired simultaneously and the forces that they apply to the probe are perpendicular?
