Does gravity hold things together?

Yes, Gravity is the force that holds everything one this Earth from flying away such as building and humans. The gravity is different for each planet as well. Earth has a gravity of one, and planets smaller than Earth have a Gravity lower than one meaning you can jump higher, because the force isn't strong enough to bring quickly. Planets bigger than Earth have a Gravity greater than 1 that allows for smaller jumps because they can bring you down quicker. There is gravity between the Earth and the Moon, and the Sun and all 8 Planets. In conclusion Gravity does hold things together.

  <span>Gravity is an attractive force. All masses exert gravity, so matter pull toward each other. However, it is only significant when the masses are large, like that of Earth.  Exactly what causes gravity still remains a mystery. Since all the other three fundamental forces (strong, weak, and electromagnetic) are caused by particles called bosons, some scientists think that gravity is caused by particles called the graviton. However, such a particle has not yet been observed, and its existence has not been proven yet. 
Also, gravity does not hold EVERYTHING together, as another person has already mentioned. Static electricity holds your socks together after they come out of the dryer, not gravity. Also, gravity is too weak to hold together, say, the nucleus of atoms, or even atoms of molecules together.</span>

What properties of sound determine the volume of sound? Is this affected by the motion of the sound source?
TEA [102]
The property of sound that determine its volume is its AMPLITUDE. The amplitude and the volume of the sound are directly varied. Which means that the larger the amplitude, the larger is the volume and the softer it is if the amplitude is smaller. It is not affected by the motion of the sound source so long as the barriers are not breached.

If you take rocks from the Earth to the moon (5 points)
Lemur [1.5K]
the mass would remain the same and the weight would change. mass defines the actual amount of an object, while weight is the force gravity has on that object. gravity is different on the moon and the earth therefore the weight will change

kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

Explanation:

The diffraction pattern is given as

Sinθ = mλ/ω

Where m=1,2,3,4....

Now, when m=1

Sinθ = λ/ω

Then,

ω = λ/Sinθ

The width of the central bright fringe is given as

y=2Ltanθ. From trigonometric

Then,

θ=arctan(y/2L)

Given that,

y=0.052m

L=0.55m

θ=arctan(0.052/2×0.55)

θ=arctan(0.0473)

θ=2.71°

Substituting this into

ω = λ/Sinθ

Since λ=544nm=544×10^-9m

Then,

ω = 544×10^-9/Si.2.71

ω = 1.15×10^-5m.
