The forces are net forces. I think this is correct.
When you say "heavy", you're talking about the gravitational force
between that object and another object, so it depends on what the
"other object" is.
If the "other object" is, let's say, the sun, then the gravitational attraction
between the Earth and sun is about 80 times as much as the gravitational
attraction between the Moon and sun, because the Earth has about 80 times
the mass of the Moon.
But if, somehow, the weight you have in mind is the gravitational attraction
between the Earth and the Moon, then those forces are equal. The force
of gravity between two objects depends on the product of both masses,
and it's equal in both directions.
If that isn't clear to you, let me give you this additional fact that's guaranteed
to knock you even further off-balance:
Your weight on the Earth is determined by the product of
(your mass) times (the Earth's mass).
The Earth's weight on you is determined by the product of
(your mass) times (the Earth's mass).
Your weight on Earth is the same as the Earth's weight on you.
Would you like to prove it ?
-- Turn the bathroom scale upside-down, so that the step-pad
is on the floor.
-- Then step on it, so that you're standing on the bottom, which
is facing up.
-- If you placed a little mirror on the floor, so that you can read
the numbers, which are facing down toward the floor, you'll
read your own weight, even though with the scale upside-down,
you're weighing the Earth on you.
Answer:
Varies from point to point on the surface of the material.
Explanation:
Diffusion reflection is the reflection of light due to irregular reflection angles on the material surface. It might be as a result of microscopic irregularities on the material surface or just plain non reflecting ability of the material.
Answer:
People depend upon plants to satisfy such basic human needs as food, clothing, shelter, and health care. These needs are growing rapidly because of a growing world population, increasing incomes, and urbanization . Plants provide food directly, of course, and also feed livestock that is then consumed itself.
Answer:
Explanation:
a gravitational field is the region of space surrounding a body in which another body experiences a force of gravitational attraction.
The formula is: weight/mass = gravitational field strength. On Earth the gravitational field strength is 10 N/kg.
an example of how you can use it if you need to find the gravitational force from earth.
