Dominoes does because when you hit one, it knocks over the next one, and so on, so forth. The same type of pattern happens in a wave.
It’s coming in contact with more air molecules than I would if it was in a ball because there is less surface area
Hello!
Since the two weights are <em>off</em> the table, the block will move towards letter F.
I hope this helps :))
The mass of a planet determines the acceleration due to gravity on it. This is according to Newton's Law of Gravitation, which basically states that the more mass a body has, the greater the force of attraction it exerts on other bodies with mass near it.
The gravitational force is:
F = GMm/r², where G is a constant, r is the distance between large mass M and small mass m.
Considering the fact that acceleration is force per unit mass, if we divide gravitational force by the small mass (to get force per unit mass), we see the dependence mathematically:
a = GM/r²
