A wind instrument that produces only odd-numbered standing wave modes has what configuration of its ends?

"My distance to the center of the earth is about 4000 miles when I am on the surface. If I go to a height of 8000 miles above th

Given,

Distance from the surface to the center of the earth, d=4000 miles

Distance from the center to you at a height of 8000 miles, a= 8000+4000=12000 miles

The gravitational force acting on a person at the surface is equal to his weight.

From Newton's Universal Law of Gravitation, the gravitational force is

$F=\frac{G\times M\times m}{r^2}$

Where G is the gravitational constant, M is the mass of the earth, m is the mass of the object/person, r is the distance between the center of the earth and the object/person

At the surface, this force is equal to the weight of the person, W=mg

i.e.

$F_s=\frac{G\times M\times m}{d^2}=W$

On substituting the of d,

$W=\frac{\text{GMm}}{4000^2}$

At a height of 8000 miles from the surface, the gravitational force is equal to,

$F_a=\frac{GMm}{12000^2}$

On dividing the above two equations,

$\frac{F_a}{W}=\frac{4000^2^{}}{12000^2}=\frac{1}{9}$

Therefore,

$F_a=\frac{1}{9}W$

Therefore at a height of 8000 miles above the surface of the earth, the force of gravity becomes 1/9 time your weight.

What happens to the moleclues within a gas when the gas Condeenses

motikmotik

Condensation happens when molecules in a gas cool down. As the molecules lose heat, they lose energy and slow down. They move closer to other gas molecules. Finally these molecules collect together to form a liquid. Hope it helps

An apple dropped from the branch of a tree hits the ground in 0.5 s. If the acceleration of the apple during its motion is 10 ms

Ipatiy [6.2K]

Given that,

Time = 0.5 s

Acceleration = 10 m/s²

(I). We need to calculate the speed of apple

Using equation of motion

$v=u+at$
