Astronauts who traveled to the moon were able to float slightly as they walked along its surface. Why were the astronauts able to do this? The weight of the astronaut on Earth is less than his weight on the moon. The mass of the astronaut on Earth is less than his mass on the moon. The weight of the astronaut on Earth is greater than his weight on the moon. The mass of the astronaut on Earth is greater than his mass on the moon.

Cells in the nervous system have a potential difference of 70 mv across the cell membrane separating the interior of the cell from the extracellular fluid. this potential difference is maintained by ion pumps that move charged ions across the membrane. is this an emf? select the correct answer and explanation. 1)no. the ion pumps cannot separate charges; thus, they cannot create a potential difference. 2)yes. the ion pumps cannot separate charges, but they still can create a potential difference. 3)yes. the ion pumps can actively separate charge; thus, they can create a potential difference. 4)no. the ion pumps can separate charges, but they cannot create a potential difference.
