1 answer:
Static equilibrium means that all forces are equal, so make this easiest you want to break F1 into it's horizontal and vertical components. As there are no other forces acting in the horizontal, we know the horizontal component of F1 is 40N. This allows the vertical component to be found using pythagorus theorem. After finding the vertical and horizontal components, you just have to add the vertical components to find the difference between the up and down.

Answer:
2. decreasing the distance of the space shuttle from Earth
Explanation:
To increase the gravitational force on a space shuttle, it is a good thing to decrease the distance of the space shuttle from the earth.
This is based on the Newton's law of universal gravitation which states that "the gravitational force between two bodies is a directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them".
Mathematically;
F =
G is the universal gravitation constant, it cannot be changed
m is the mass of the body
r is the distance
Since the distance is inversely proportional, is we reduce it, the value of the gravitational force will increase.
