A Martian rover found an interesting rock that could contain signs of what Mars was like long ago. It grabbed it with its rover arm and raised it to a height of 0.2 m. Then it dropped it and found that it had a kinetic
energy of 12 J when it struck the ground. Note that Mars has an acceleration due to gravity of 3.77 m/s2.
Complete the following equations to determine the rock's potential energy if it were brought to earth and
dropped from a height of 1 meter. Use what you know about calculating gravitational potential energy to
correctly set up and solve the equation.

During the apollo moon missions, astronauts were concerned about the effects of newton's third law of motion when: o a. they ejected waste water, because they were concerned that it would push them off course. o b. they reentered earth's atmosphere, because they were carrying heavy moon rocks. o c. they took off from earth, because a large force was required to generate large acceleration. o d. they detected incoming space debris, because the inertia of the debris could damage their ship.
