• Objects “fall” toward the center of Earth.  (TRUE)

Since the gravitational force between earth and any object is always along the line joining the centers of two so all the objects near the surface of earth will always feel force towards the centre of the earth due to gravity.

• Objects are pulled by Earth but do not pull on Earth.  (FALSE)

Since gravitational force will always follow Newton's III law as per which every action has equal and opposite reaction force so object near the surface of earth will also pull the earth as earth is pulling the object towards the center.

• Objects accelerate at a rate of 9.8 m/s each second.  (TRUE)

Since acceleration due to gravity of Earth is 9.8 m/s^2 so here we can say that all objects near the surface of earth will accelerate towards the center of earth at rate of 9.8 m/s^2 due to gravitational pull.

• Objects travel at a rate of 9.8 m/s to are the center of Earth. (FALSE)

Since earth is pulling all objects near its surface with gravitational force so objects can not move at constant speed but it will move with constant acceleration.

• Objects are pulled by Earth more strongly than they pull on Earth. (FALSE)

Since gravitational force will always follow Newton's III law which say every action has equal and opposite reaction so we can say that force due to all objects on earth will be same as the force of earth on the object.

Imagine an infinite earth with a hole dripped through it. You fall in and accelerate at g~10m/s/s. How long until you reach the
Soloha48 [4]

An object with non-zero mass (even negligible mass is non-zero) will never reach the speed of light. Due to relativistic effects, each "unit" of acceleration becomes less effective at increasing your velocity (relative to some other object, of course) as your relative velocity approaches the speed of light.

And even if there was a way, If you would accelerate to the 99,99% of the speed light in just 1 second, you would experience a G-force of aprox. 30,600,000 g's which is enough to kill you in a few seconds

The strength of the force of friction depends on which two factors?
Stolb23 [73]

Options A and D are correct. The strength of the force of friction depends on the objects' sizes and weights and the heat generated by the friction and the types of surfaces involved.

<h3 /><h3>What is the friction force?</h3>

It is a type of opposition force acting on the surface of the body that tries to oppose the motion of the body. its unit is Newton (N).

Mathematically, it is defined as the product of the coefficient of friction and normal reaction.

On resolving the given force and acceleration in the different components and balancing the equation gets. Components in the x-direction.

The strength of the force of friction depends on the two factors, as;

A. The objects' sizes and weights.

D. The heat generated by the friction and the types of surfaces involved.

Hence, options A and D are correct.

Three out of four crashes happen at a speed of __________ miles per hour or less.
Nitella [24]
<span>The answer is 45 miles per hour or even less. Most crashes occur at a speed of 45 miles per hour or even less, and most of these accidents occur close to our homes. These crashes may also be caused by different factors, such as being drunk or sudden occurrences that are not controllable, which is why it is best to precede with caution when driving at crowded areas.</span>

On a distant planet, a rock falls in 48.4 s from the top of a 1.10e+02 m cliff to the planet surface below. What is the accelera
pav-90 [236]

this can be solve using the formala of free fall

t = sqrt( 2y/ g)

where t is the time of fall

y is the height

g is the acceleration due to gravity

48.4 s = sqrt (2 (1.10e+02 m)/ g)

G = 0.0930 m/s2

The velocity at impact

V = sqrt(2gy)

= sqrt( 2 ( 0.0930 m/s2)( 1.10e+02 m)

V = 4.523 m/s
