On the moon the acceleration due to gravity is 1/6 of Earth's. A ball is thrown straight up to the moon and it takes t= 19s to return to the surface. What is the difference in the maximum height of the ball when it is thrown on the anion (hM) and the ball being thrown on the Earth (hE), assuming the same time of the flight?
