Answer:
b. varies inversely with the square of the distance from the center of Earth.
Explanation:
Comparing the Newton's law of universal gravitation and second law of motion;
from Newton's second law of motion,
F = ma ............. 1
from New ton's law of universal gravitation,
F = ........... 2
Equating 1 and 2, we have;
mg =
g =
Therefore, the acceleration due to gravity near Earth, g, is inversely proportional to the square of the distance from the center of Earth.
The power developed is 500 W ( to the nearest Watt)
Power(P) is the rate at which work is done. Work done (W) is the product of the force applied on the object and the displacement (s) made by the point of application of the force.
Therefore,
Substitute the given values of force , displacement and time
Thus the Power can be rounded off to the nearest value of 500 W
Answer: C
Explanation:
Find the acceleration using this kinematic equation:
Now use this kinematic equation to find the displacement:
