You would have the most quantity of gold if it weighed 1 N on the
 
  1) Moon.
  2) Earth.
  3) planet Jupiter.
  4) would be the same on each.
 
  This is because
  5) on the Moon a greater mass of gold is required for the gravitational force to equal 1 N.
  6) weight and mass are directly proportional to each other.
  7) gravitational force per mass is greatest on the most massive planet.

Question 2

A baseball is thrown straight upward. At the very top of its trajectory its instantaneous velocity is zero and its acceleration is
 
  1) zero.
  2) 10 m/s2.
  3) between zero and 10 m/s2.
  4) none of these.
 
  We can better understand this by noting that when it is at its highest point
  5) there momentarily is no motion.
  6) its rate of change of motion is still 10 m/s2.
  7) although its velocity is not changing, its direction is.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
