If you can jump three inches on the earth, how many inches could you jump on the moon? What are some intuitive ways to determine the number?

The moon's radius is about 1737 km (I presume you lost the leading 1 somewhere), which gives a value of 113.9 N for the person on the moon based on your "Newtons on the Moon" calculator. The Earth/moon ratio is then 688.2/113.9, or 6.04, which is usually rounded to 6. If you weigh 70 kg on Earth, you would weigh one-sixth as much, or 11.7 kg, on the moon.

The energy required for a three-inch jump on Earth would result in a jump six times higher (18 inches) on the moon. A four-foot vertical leap on the moon would require the same energy as an 8-inch jump on Earth.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
