The following statement best describes how gravity helps protoplanets create layers in that gravity pulls materials and generates compaction, which produces heat and causes materials to melt, sink, and rise. Option A is correct.

<h3>What is gravity?</h3><h3 />

Gravitation is a natural law by which all things with all matter are attracted towards one another. gravity causes weight to all matter and the gravity of the moon causes the ocean tides.

The force that draws massed bodies toward one another is known as gravity. Gravitatithus

According to the alternatives, gravity pulls things together and causes compaction, which generates heat and causes things to melt,

Thus, we may draw the conclusion that gravity draws materials and creates compaction, which generates heat and causes materials to melt, sink, and rise.

Hence option A is correct,

Which one of Newton’s Laws explains the motion of an object that is traveling with uniform circular motion?
DedPeter [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

A uniform circular motion is an example of accelerated motion.

When an object is moving in a uniform circular motion, there is a centripetal force acting towards the centre of the circular path and then a centrifugal force is also acting away from the centre of the circular path. The magnitude of the centripetal force and the centrifugal force is same but the direction is opposite to each other. So, it is explained by the Newton's third law.

A woman 5.5 ft walks at a rate of 6 ft/sec towards a street light that is 22 ft above the ground. At what rate is the length of
Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

The length of her shadow is changing at the rate  -2 m/s

Explanation:

Let the height oh the street light, h = 22 ft

Let the height of the woman, w = 5.5 ft

Horizontal distance to the street light = l

length of shadow = x

h/w = (l + x)/x

22/5.5 =  (l + x)/x

4x = l + x

3x = l

x = 1/3 l

taking the derivative with respect to t of both sides

dx/dt = 1/3 dl/dt

dl/dt = -6 ft/sec ( since the woman is walking towards the street light, the value of l is decreasing with time)

dx/dt = 1/3 * (-6)

dx/dt = -2 m/s
