Answer:
Air at higher altitude is under less pressure than air at lower altitude because there is less weight of air above it, so it expands (and cools), while air at lower altitude is under more pressure so it contracts (and heats up).

<u>We are given:</u>
Mass of the rocket = 10 kg
Weight of the Rocket = 100 N
Upward thrust applied by the rocket = 400 N
<u>Net upward force on the rocket:</u>
We are given that gravity pulls the rocket with a force of 100 N
Also, the rocket applied a force of 400N against gravity
Net upward force = Upward thrust - Force applied by gravity
Net upward force = 400 - 100
Net upward force = 300 N
<u>Upward Acceleration of the Rocket:</u>
From newton's second law:
F = ma
<em>replacing the variables</em>
300 = 10 * a
a = 30 m/s²
Answer:
C. The forces are balanced.
Explanation:
Every answer other than C means the object moved.
<span>In equation form, this is often expressed as follows: The constant of proportionality in this equation is G - the universal gravitation constant. The value of G was not experimentally determined until nearly a century later (1798) by Lord Henry Cavendish using a torsion balance.</span>
