Answer:

Explanation:

Often times, the property of air masses is a function of where they originate from especially with respect to latitude.

An air mass is certain amount of air with some unique set of temperature and vapor component.

Air masses differs from places to places based on where they originate.
Continental air masses are usually dry and cold because there is little to no water on a land mass.
Air masses that originates from the surface of the ocean are predominantly moist.
In polar regions, the air mass is cold.
Around the tropics, they are usually warm due to insolation here.

Explanation:

At 30 mph, the fuel mileage is 25 mpg.

After 5 hours, the distance traveled is:

30 mi/hr × 5 hr = 150 mi

The amount of gas used is:

150 mi × (1 gal / 25 mi) = 6 gal

Calculate the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity on the surface of Earth due to the Moon.

Fudgin [204]

Answer:

$g'_h=1.096\times 10^{-5}\ m.s^{-2}$

Explanation:

We know that the gravity on the surface of the moon is,

$g'=\frac{g}{6}$

$g'=1.63\ m.s^{-2}$

<u>Gravity at a height h above the surface of the moon will be given as:</u>

$g'_h=\frac{G.m}{(r+h)^2}$ ..........................(1)

where:

G = universal gravitational constant

m = mass of the moon

r = radius of moon

We have:

$G=6.67\times 10^{-11}\ m^3.s^{-2}.kg^{-1}$

$m=7.35\times 10^{22}\ kg$

$r=1.74\times 10^6\ m$

$h=384.4\times 10^6\ m$ is the distance between the surface of the earth and the moon.

Now put the respective values in eq. (1)

$g'_h=\frac{6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 7.35\times 10^{22}}{(1.74\times 10^6+384.4\times 10^6)^2}$

$g'_h=1.096\times 10^{-5}\ m.s^{-2}$ is the gravity on the moon the earth-surface.

Which object experiences the greatest gravitational force? A)car B)fire truck C)plane D)human

Svetlanka [38]

Answer: C Plane

Explanation: According to Newton's law, gravitational force is proportional to the product of masses and inversely proportional to the square of distance between them.

Gravitational force depends on mass. The bigger the mass, the more the magnitude of the gravitational force. Since plane is assume to have the highest mass in the options, we can therefore conclude that plane will experience the highest gravitational force.
