Answer:

at its centre

Explanation:

The centre of gravity is a point inside the body where entire weight os the body is said to be concentrated. For geometrical symmetric bodies it lies at the geometric centre of the body.

The base ball is a spherical body, so its centre of gravity lies at its centre.

Just how strong is the electric force? suppose you had two small boxes, each containing 1.0 g of protons. (a) if one were placed

Let's use Newton's Law of Second Motion: F=ma. When no other direct force is acting on the system, the acceleration is due to the gravity. The modified equation becomes: F = mg. So, yes, you need to take into account the gravitational accelerations in the moon and on Earth.

g,moon = 1.622 m/s²
g,Earth = 9.81 m/s²

The net force is the tension of the string:

F,Earth - F,moon = Tension
Tension = (1/1000 kg)(9.81 m/s²) - (1/1000 kg)(1.622 m/s²)
Tension = 8.188×10⁻³ N

To convert, 1 pound force is equal to 4.45 Newtons:

Tension = 8.188×10⁻³ N * 1 lbf/4.45 N
Tension = 1.84×10⁻³ lbf
