Answer:
The body stores it as fat
Explanation:
The general accepted value of acceleration due to gravity, g, is 9.81 m/s^2.
That is an approximation because being the acceleration of gravity due to the attraction of the earth its magnitude will depend on the distance from the point to the center of the planet Earth.
The value of g is determined by using the Newton's Universal Law of gravity:
F = G * m of Earth * m of body / (distance^2)
Wehre {G* m of Earth / (distance^2) } = g
G is a universal constant = 6.67 * 10 ^ -11 N*m^2 / kg^2
m of Earth = 5.98 * 10 ^ 24 kg
distance = radius of Earth + height of the body
Given the the Earth is not a perfect sphere the radius varies. Also the height of the body varies.
If you take a mean radius of Earth of 6.37*10^6 m
you get
g = 6.67*10^-11 N*m^2/kg^2 * 5.98*10^24kg / (6.37*10^6 m)^2 = 9.83 m/s^2
Again, if you want a more precise value of g, you need to find the exact place where you are and then use the right r.
No, it will not fall. The pencil will remain at zero speed relative to the spacecraft and will orbit the earth with the spacecraft.
Kinetic energy. thermal energy (a low form of energy ) is a form of kinetic energy as it is produced as a result of motion of particles either if they vibrate at their position or they move along longer paths. Motion produces friction or resistance which leads to excitation and thus the heat is produced. The higher the motion of the particles, the higher would be the thermal energy.
