Object become weightless in space and in water. gravity is what holds an object down, without gravity object would float around.

Weight = (mass) x (local acceleration of gravity)

The local acceleration of gravity depends on the other masses
around you and your distance from them. So an object can only be
truly weightless when it's infinitely far away from any other mass.

But an object appears to be weightless when it's in free fall, that is,
when the only force acting on it is the force of gravity. In that situation,
the sensation of 'weight' is impossible ... you can never feel that something
is pressing against you, because everything else is also in free fall.
So a scale on the floor can't exert force against your feet, the mattress
on your bed can't exert force against your back, and your heart, liver,
stomach and spleen can't exert force against your other guts.
Nothing seems to have weight, because everything is falling with
the same acceleration.

sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

The magnitude of the resultant of the magnetic field is $4.11\times10^{-5}\ T$

Explanation:

Given that,

Current = 40 A

Magnetic field $B=3.7\times10^{-5}\ T$

Distance = 22 cm

We need to calculate the magnetic field

Using formula of magnetic field

$B'=\dfrac{\mu_{0}I}{2\pi r}$

Where, r = distance

I = current

Put the value into the formula

$B'=\dfrac{4\pi\times10^{-7}\times20}{2\pi\times0.22}$

$B'=1.8\times10^{-5}\ T$

We need to calculate the magnitude of the resultant of the magnetic field

Using formula of resultant

$B''=\sqrt{B^2+B'^2}$

Put the value into the formula

$B''=\sqrt{(3.7\times10^{-5})^2+(1.8\times10^{-5})^2}$

$B''=4.11\times10^{-5}\ T$

Hence, The magnitude of the resultant of the magnetic field is $4.11\times10^{-5}\ T$

The influence of blood vessel diameter on peripheral resistance is ________.

NeX [460]

Answer:

The influence of diameter of the blood vessel on peripheral resistance is significant because resistance is inversely proportional to the fourth power of the diameter.

Explanation:

The influence of diameter of the blood vessel on peripheral resistance is significant because the relation between the peripheral resistance and the diameter is given as, resistance is inversely proportional to the fourth power of the diameter. Thus, with small increase or decrease in the value of diameter, the peripheral resistance may vary by a significant amount.

About 80 percent of earth volume is made up of what?

kolbaska11 [484]

About 80% of the earth's volume is made of mantle.

The mantle is a layer inside a terrestrial planet and some other rocky planetary bodies. For a mantle to form, the planetary body must be large enough to have undergone the process of planetary differentiation by density. The mantle lies between the core below and the crust above. The terrestrial planets (Earth, Venus, Mars and Mercury), the Moon, two of Jupiter's moons (Io and Europa) and the asteroid Vesta each have a mantle made of silicate rock.Interpretation of spacecraft data suggests that at least two other moons of Jupiter (Ganymede and Callisto), as well as Titan and Triton each have a mantle made of ice or other solid volatile substances up of Mantle
