Answer:
A. It makes astronauts weightless.
Explanation:
Gravity does not make astronauts feel weightless. Astronauts are weightless because they are orbiting at the same rate as their shuttle.
Although the force of gravity weakens as one moves away from the earth surface, it does not mean that this force is absent in orbit
- Gravitational force has a constant acceleration value near the earth surface which is commonly known to be 9.8m/s².
- It is a force of attraction tending to hold and bind bodies together so far they have mass.
- This force keeps every thing from escaping space-ward from the earth surface.
Answer:
The force on q₁ due to q₂ is (0.00973i + 0.02798j) N
Explanation:
F₂₁ = 
Where;
F₂₁ is the vector force on q₁ due to q₂
K is the coulomb's constant = 8.99 X 10⁹ Nm²/C²
r₂₁ is the unit vector
|r₂₁| is the magnitude of the unit vector
|q₁| is the absolute charge on point charge one
|q₂| is the absolute charge on point charge two
r₂₁ = [(9-5)i +(7.4-(-4))j] = (4i + 11.5j)
|r₂₁| = 
(|r₂₁|)² = 148.25
= 0.050938(0.19107i + 0.54933j) N
= (0.00973i + 0.02798j) N
Therefore, the force on q₁ due to q₂ is (0.00973i + 0.02798j) N
Explanation:
potential energy =360800J
mass(m)=?
height (h)=25m
g=9.8m/s²
we have
potential energy =360800J
mgh=360800J
m×9.8×25=360800
m=360800/(9.8×25)=1472.653061kg
The distance an object falls from rest through gravity is
D = (1/2) (g) (t²)
Distance = (1/2 acceleration of gravity) x (square of the falling time)
We want to see how the time will be affected
if ' D ' doesn't change but ' g ' does.
So I'm going to start by rearranging the equation
to solve for ' t '. D = (1/2) (g) (t²)
Multiply each side by 2 : 2 D = g t²
Divide each side by ' g ' : 2 D/g = t²
Square root each side: t = √ (2D/g)
Looking at the equation now, we can see what happens to ' t ' when only ' g ' changes:
-- ' g ' is in the denominator; so bigger 'g' ==> shorter 't'
and smaller 'g' ==> longer 't' .--
They don't change by the same factor, because 1/g is inside the square root. So 't' changes the same amount as √1/g does.
Gravity on the surface of the moon is roughly 1/6 the value of gravity on the surface of the Earth.
So we expect ' t ' to increase by √6 = 2.45 times.
It would take the same bottle (2.45 x 4.95) = 12.12 seconds to roll off the same window sill and fall 120 meters down to the surface of the Moon.
