Answer

Gravitational force is between two object caused by energy in mass. Here when you are in a mine the radius of the earth in case of calculating gravity is reduced to the length between you and the center.

This means the mass of earth is decreasing even though the distance is decreasing. Relative to the decrease in distance squared the decrease in the mass of the second object(earth) is more. As a result your weight decreases.

Answer:

Explanation: that means as you descend into the earth, all of the mass in all the shells above you gets canceled. If the centre of the earth were not molten iron, but instead hollowed out, you would be weightless inside.

The physics problem is actually a little more general. It applies to inverse square force laws such as the electrical force. So if you put an electron inside a positively or negatively charged sphere, it will also have a net force on it of zero.

A rock of mass 170 kg needs to be lifted off the ground. One end of a metal bar is slipped under the rock, and a fulcrum is set
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

866.32 N

Explanation:

The diagram explains better.

Taking the total moment of forces, the sum of the clockwise moment of forces about the fulcrum must be equal to the sum of the anticlockwise moment of forces about the fulcrum:

F * (1.9 - 0.65) = 170 * 9.8 * 0.65

F * 1.25 = 1082.9

F = 1082.9/1.25

F = 866.32 N

A force of 866.32 N is needed to move the rock.

Kirchhoff's Rules When applying Kirchhoff's rules, one of the essential steps is to mark each resistor with plus and minus signs
luda_lava [24]

Answer:

d. R4

Explanation:

Generally, the flow of current is always from the positive sign to the negative sign. In the resistors R1, R2, and R3, the direction of flow of current is from the positive sign to the negative sign. However, in the resistor R4, the direction of the flow of current is different from the conventional method. Therefore, the resistor R4 is marked wrongly.

If the pressing force on the slidding surfaces is greater then friction will be
Tema [17]

Answer:

Kinetic friction is lesser than limiting friction. Two surfaces are rubbed together, first with a smaller force and then with a greater force.

What is the relationship between dominant and recessive genes
Triss [41]
Dominant genes and recessive genes are both given to a parents offspring. However, not both can be expressed causing the difference of dominant and recessive. Dominant genes are more likely to be expressed and recessive genes are more likely to be repressed.
