An object is lifted from the surface of a spherical planet to an altitude equal to the radius of the planet. As a result, what happens to the mass and weight of the object?.

Aquantity of gas has a volume of 1.5 m3 and an absolute pressure of 95 kpa. when the gas is compressed to a volume of 0.5 m3, what is the new absolute pressure of the gas? (assume that there’s no change in temperature.)

Global warming will produce rising sea levels partly due to melting ice caps but also due to the expansion of water as average ocean temperatures rise. to get some idea of the size of this effect, calculate the change in length of a column of water 1.00 km high for a temperature increase of 1.00ºc. note that this calculation is only approximate because ocean warming is not uniform with depth. (answer in ×10^{-3} −3 m)

3. a lunar exploration vehicle was created by a research team. it weighs 3,000 kg on the earth. it needs an acceleration of 10 m/s2 on the moon. in order to have the same acceleration, what will be the net force acting on the vehicle on the earth?
