"What force causes weight?"
--Weight is caused by gravity. The weight of an object is determined between the gravitational force of the object and the Earth.

"How is weight affected as an object moves farther away from the center of the Earth?"
--As you travel away from the Earth's surface, your mass stays the same but your weight reduces as gravitational pull decreases.

ExtremeBDS [4]
This can be solved using momentum balance, since momentum is conserved, the momentum at point 1 is equal to the momentum of point 2. momentum = mass x velocity
m1v1 = m2v2
(0.03kg x 900 m/s ) = 320(v2)
v2 = 27 / 320
v2 = 0.084 m/s is the speed of the astronaut

  • In option A, It is a state where the element converts into a liquid, that's why it is not correct.
  • In option B, It is a reaction in which the bonds of water is divided into particular substance, that's why it is not correct.
  • In option D, It is a form of mechanical or physical rock weathering, that's it is not correct.
