Question
a. How is the weight of an object in a spaceship near the moon related to the distance that the spaceship is from the moon?
b. There is no gravity on the moon and therefore they are not related
c. As the distance to the moon decreases, the weight of the spaceship would increase.
d. As the distance to the moon increases, the weight of the spaceship would increase.
e. The gravitational pull on the moon is constant so the weight does not change.
b. There is no gravity on the moon and therefore they are not related
c. As the distance to the moon decreases, the weight of the spaceship would increase.
d. As the distance to the moon increases, the weight of the spaceship would increase.
e. The gravitational pull on the moon is constant so the weight does not change.

I am sorry, but for everyone who put b or c is incorrect. There is indeed gravity on the moon, calculated at about 1.62 m/s². There is no gravity in space, but there is on the moon. And the closer you are to the moon, the more gravity there would be. So in conclusion, the answer would actually be d., As the distance to the moon increases, the weight of the spaceship would increase.

Po is correct. the correct answer IS D.

The answer in usatestprep may change, for me it was B.
*As the distance to the moon decreases, the weight of spaceship would increase (:
*As the distance to the moon decreases, the weight of spaceship would increase (:
Correct answer
As the distance to the moon decreases, the weight of the spaceship would increase.
