What did man do on the moon in 1969?
It was a quick visit to the moon, samples of moon rocks were collected, photographs were taken, and brought back to Earth.
What would be effect on mass and weight of a body if it is taken from earth surface to the surface of moon?
The mass will remain the same, but the weight will be one sixth of what it was on earth, since weight depends on the local force of gravity. The moons gravity is one sixth of the earths.
Where can one find images of the Earth taken from the International Space Station?
There are many different places one might go to locate images of Earth taken from the International Space Station. One of the best resources would be the official Space website.
What would be the effect on mass and weight of a body if it is taken from earth surface to the moon?
The mass stays the same, the weight is about one sixth as here on Earth. The astronauts had to learn how to move there... it's harder getting stopped and doing corners, as you don't have the weight and traction you are used to.
Which measurement changes when an object is taken from the earth to the moon?
weight
How is underground oil used?
It is brought to the surface and taken to an oil refinery where the different components are separated, like heating oil, diesel, gasoline, aviation fuel. These are different fractions of the crude oil from the well.
What you see at the earth from the surface of the moon?
The photos of Earth taken from the Moon show oceans and clouds. Nothing else is distinguishable.
Is silver taken from the Earth by surface mined or subsurfaced mined?
Both. It may be a byproduct of surface mining, or may be an underground mine.
If you get taken up by a tornado where do you go?
Eventually you get dumped back onto the surface of the Earth or Water
When was the first torch taken?

How did scientists obtain a picture of the surface of the Earth?
Some probe satileitis have taken pictures from space and had sent the data back 2 earth
Why does Google Earth show different areas with different resolutions?
This is because all the pictures are taken by different satellites with different resolutions.
What did man do on the moon in 1969?
It was a quick visit to the moon, samples of moon rocks were collected, photographs were taken, and brought back to Earth.
How is gold taken from the earth?
There are many different ways, but mining is the most common.
What happens to the acceleration of a body as it falls freely?
The free fall acceleration of the earth is approximately related to the distance from the surface by the following formula. g = GM/(R2 + h) where G = universal gravitational constant, M = Mass of Earth, R = Radius of Earth, h = distance from the surface of the earth g = 3.98 * 1014 / ( (6.0 * 106 )2+ h) as h increases to a very low value near the surface of the earth the value of g can be approximately taken to be constant near the surface of the earth. So the acceleration is constant near the surface of the earth.
How and why do earthquakes accure?
An earthquake takes place when the plates rub against each other, the movement forces waves of energy to come to the earth surface. This causes tremors and shakes, and then we can say that an earthquake has taken place.
What will happen to value of g if compound pendulum is taken nearer to the centre of the earth?
The acceleration of gravity decreases as the observation point is taken deeper beneath the surface of the Earth, but it's not the location of the compound pendulum that's responsible for the decrease.
