Convert the given in SI units.

         (44 ft/sec)(1 m/ 3.28 ft) = 13.41 m/sec

The distance traveled and the initial velocity can be related through the equation,
  
   d = (Vf)² - (Vi)²/ 2a

where d is the distance, Vf is the final velocity, Vi is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration due to gravity. Substituting the known values from the given above,

    d = ((0 m/s)² - (13.41 m/s)²)/ 2(-9.8 m/s²)

The value of d from the equation,

    d = 9.17 meters

Convert this to feet,

    d = (9.17 m)(3.28 ft / 1 m) = 30 ft

Answer: 30 ft

What would increase the force of gravity between two objects?
yulyashka [42]
By Newton's Law of Universal Gravitation.

F =  GMm/r²

Where F is Force of Gravitation, M = Mass of first object, m = mass of second object, r = distance of separation

From the formula, you can see that if the masses, M and m, increased, the value of F would definitely increase as well.

And if r increased the value of F would be reduced because you would be dividing by a bigger number, but when the value of r is decreased the value of F would be increased, because you would then be dividing by something smaller. Note the r is at the denominator of the formula.

So F would increase if there was increase in Masses and decrease in distance.

So the answer is C. a and b.

1. The gravitational force acting on a falling body and its weight is constant. But the law of universal gravitation tells us th
vagabundo [1.1K]
It's not so much a "contradiction" as an approximation. Newton's law of gravitation is an inverse square law whose range is large. It keeps people on the ground, and it keeps satellites in orbit and that's some thousands of km. The force on someone on the ground - their weight - is probably a lot larger than the centripetal force keeping a satellite in orbit (though I've not actually done a calculation to totally verify this). The distance a falling body - a coin, say - travels is very small, and over such a small distance gravity is assumed/approximated to be constant.
