Answer:

The gravity of the sun and the planets works together with the inertia to create the orbits and keep them consistent. The gravity pulls the sun and the planets together, while keeping them apart. The inertia provides the tendency to maintain speed and keep moving. The planets want to keep moving in a straight line because of the physics of inertia. However, the gravitational pull wants to change the motion to pull the planets into the core of the sun. Together, this creates a rounded orbit as a form of compromise between the two forces.

Weigt A box sitting still on the ground by itself has a weight of 700N, what is the mass? (gravity's acceleration is 9.80 m/s2)

Alex

Force=700N
Acceleration=9.8m/s^2

Using newtons law

$\\ \rm\longmapsto F=ma$

$\\ \rm\longmapsto m=\dfrac{F}{a}$

$\\ \rm\longmapsto m=\dfrac{700}{9.8}$

$\\ \rm\longmapsto m=71.4kg$

Which measure of an earthquake depends on how close you are to the focus?

Vsevolod [243]

<span>The intensity of an earthquake is dependent on one's proximity to the focus of the quake, also called the "epicenter" and is based on observations of the shaking of the ground on humans, structures, and the natural landscape.</span>
