Is john glenn the astronaut still alive?

Analyze How your weight would change with time if you were on a space ship traveling away from earth toward the moon?

As you travel away from Earth towards the moon, your weight would gradually decrease due to the reduced gravitational pull from Earth and the increasing distance between you and Earth. In the absence of other forces affecting your weight, it would continue to decrease until you reach the point where the gravitational pull from the moon becomes dominant and your weight would start to increase as you get closer to the moon.


What happens when the space shuttle takes off and moves away fromm earth?

It masses increases and the weight increases


What would happen if an astronaut's lifeline was cut?

If an astronaut's lifeline was cut, they would become untethered and float away into space. They would likely be unable to navigate back to their spacecraft and could be lost in space. Immediate action would need to be taken by the astronaut and their crew to retrieve them before they drift too far away.


To any astronaut what is an Eva?

EVA stands for Extravehicular Activity, which is when an astronaut goes outside the spacecraft to perform tasks in space. During an EVA, astronauts wear specialized spacesuits to protect them from the harsh environment of space. EVAs are critical for activities such as repairing spacecraft, conducting experiments, and maintaining equipment outside the spacecraft.

How do astronaut get in space?

Astronauts get in space by riding rockets that shoot them up and away from the Earth's gravitational pull.


Would you have less mass or less weight on the smaller moon?

The mass of the astronaut remains the same. However, the weight of the astronaut is less on the moon.


What is a wave of energy that travels through earth away from an earthquake?

A seismic wave.


An astronaut travels away form Earth at 0.999c toward a sloar system that is 10 light years from Earth Asume that asrronauts's velocity is constant for a round-trip journey. What is the distance to it?

Trick question. The planet is 10 light years away; if you're going round trip, it's 20 light years. Everything else in the question is irrelevant.


Is the weight of a body constant at all places on the earth?

The weight of a person is not constant at all places on the Earth. The weight becomes zero at the center of the earth or far away from the Earth.


As you get farther away from the center of the earth your weight will increase or decrease?

As you move away from the center of the Earth, your weight will decrease. This is because weight is the force of gravity acting on an object, and gravity weakens with increasing distance from the center of the Earth.


Is the sun exactly in the path of earth?

No. The sun isn't anywhere near the path of earth. The earth travels a long, closed path around the sun, and is always about 93 million miles away from it.


What happens to your weight as you get father away from the center of the earth?

It decreases.Your weight, however, is not just dependent on your diet or your state of mind.


Does weight - force of gravity - decrease or increase as you move away from the earth by distance squared?

As you move away from the Earth by distance squared, the force of gravity (weight) decreases. This is because gravity follows an inverse square law, where the force of gravity weakens as the distance between two objects increases.


If at 100000 miles from Earth you weigh 40.0 pounds what would you weigh if you were 50000 miles away from the Earth?

Your weight depends on the distance from the center of Earth. Weight decreases with distance from Earth's center, so if you are 50,000 miles away, you would weigh less than 40.0 pounds when compared to being 100,000 miles away. The exact weight can be determined using the inverse square law of gravitation.
