A mass of a 10kg object on earth is ________ (than) a 10kg object on the moon. | the same as |
ToF: A force can be simply defined as a push or a pull | True |
ToF: The SI unit of force is the kilogram | False |
ToF: An astronaut has the same mass on earth as in space | True |
ToF: If a hockey puck slides on a perfectly frictionless surface, it will eventually slow down because of its inertia | False |
