When the mass of Earth doubles, acceleration due to gravity doubles as well.

<h3>Acceleration due to gravity</h3>

Apply Newton's second law of motion;

F = mg --- (1)

where;

  • m is mass of the object
  • g is acceleration due to gravity

F = GmM/R²  --- (2)

where;

  • M is mass of Earth
  • R is radius of Earth

Solve (1) and (2)

mg =  GmM/R²

g = GM/R²

when the mass of Earth doubles, acceleration due to gravity becomes;

g' = G(2M)/R²

g' = 2(GM/R²)

g' = 2g

Thus, when the mass of Earth doubles, acceleration due to gravity doubles as well.

The image shows the correct way of lining up vectors to add them together, that the two arrows lined up one after the other, therefore the correct answer is option B.

<h3>What is a vector quantity?</h3>

The quantities that contain the magnitude of the quantities along with the direction are known as the vector quantities.

Examples of vector quantities are displacement, velocity acceleration, force, etc.

Thus, the image shows the correct way of lining up vectors to add them together, that the two arrows lined up one after the other, therefore the correct answer is option B.

Compare the weight of a mountain climber when she is at the bottom of a mountain with her weight when she is at the top of the m
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

The correct answer is  a. Both are the same

Explanation:

For this calculation we must use the gravitational attraction equation

    F = G m M / r²

Where M will use the mass of the Earth, m the mass of the girl and r is the distance of the girl to the center of the earth that we consider spherical

To better visualize things, let's repair the equation a little

     F = m (G M / r²)

The amount in parentheses called acceleration of gravity, entered the force called peos

     g = G M / r²

     F = W

    W = m g

When analyzing this equation we see that the variation in the weight of the girl depends on the distance, which is the radius of the earth plus the height where the girl is

    r = Re + h

    Re = 6.37 10⁶ m

    r² = (Re + h)²

    r² = Re² (1 + h / Re)²

Let's replace

    W = m (GM / Re²)   (1+ h / Re)⁻²

    W = m g   (1+ h / Re)⁻²

This is the exact expression for weight change with height, but let's look at its values ​​for some reasonable heights h = 6300 m (very high mountain)

     h / Re = 10 ⁻³

     (1+ h / Re)⁻² = 0.999⁻²

Therefore, the negligible weight reduction, therefore, for practical purposes the weight does not change with the height of the mountain on Earth

The correct answer is a
