The acceleration due to gravity on the moon is 1.67 m/s2. If a person can throw a stone 12.0 m straight upward on the earth, how high should the person be able to throw a stone on the moon? Assume that the throwing speeds are the same in the two cases.
A ball is dropped on the moon from a height of 1.90 meters. The acceleration of gravity on the moon is 1.62 m/s^2. How much time does it take for the ball to fall to the surface of the moon?
a man can throw a ball a maximum horizontal distance of 58.7m
the acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s^2
How far can he throw the same ball vertically upward with the same initial speed?
