Answer:

it's 2 N

Explanation:

Whatever force you exert on he earth that's the same force that it's exerting on you. So for example, if you weigh 130 lbs, ur exerting 130 lbs to the earth which is exerting to you also.

The correct answer to the question is : 19.6 N.

EXPLANATION :

As per the question, the mass of the object m = 2.0 Kg.

The object is falling near the earth's surface.

We are asked to calculate the gravitational force.

The gravitational force exerted by earth on the object is equal to the weight of the body. It is so because the weight of the body is the force with which any body on the surface of earth is attracted towards the centre of earth.

The weight of the body is calculated as-

                     Weight W = mg

Here, g is known as the acceleration due to gravity and g = 9.8\ m/s^2

Hence, weight of the body W = 2 × 9.8 N.

                                                 = 19.6 N.

Hence, the gravitational force on the object is 19.6 N.

How do you know about Black Holes?
kondaur [170]

Answer: From space/ astronauts

Explanation:

A black hole is a place in space where gravity pulls so much that even light can not get out. The gravity is so strong because matter has been squeezed into a tiny space. This can happen when a star is dying.

Because no light can get out, people can't see black holes. They are invisible. Space telescopes with special tools can help find black holes. The special tools can see how stars that are very close to black holes act differently than other stars.

What best describes a sound wave? transverse and electromagnetic longitudinal and mechanical longitudinal and electromagnetic tr
GalinKa [24]

Sound needs medium to travel and it can not travel without medium

so sound wave is a travelling wave

now we also know that sound wave propagate in form of rarefaction and compression.

So all medium particles travel in the direction of wave only

so it is a longitudinal wave also

so correct answer will be

<em>mechanical longitudinal </em>

Find the slit separation of a double-slit arrangement that will produce interference fringes 0.018 rad apart on a distant screen
inessss [21]

Answer:

1.64 * 10^(-5) m

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Angular separation, θ = 0.018 rad

Wavelength, λ = 589 nm = 5.89 * 10^(-7) m

The angular separation when there are 2 slots is given as

θ = λ/2d

where d = separation between slits

d = λ/2θ

d = (589 * 10^(-9))/(2 * 0.018)

d = 1.64 * 10^(-5) m

By considering action-reacton forces,identify why water rises up a thin capillary tube
netineya [11]

The forces of attraction between water molecules and the glass walls and within the molecules of water themselves are what enable the water to rise in a thin tube immersed in water.

<h3>What is force?</h3>

Force is defined as the push or pulls applied to the body. Sometimes it is used to change the shape, size, and direction of the body.

Force is defined as the product of mass and acceleration. Its unit is Newton.

Surface or interfacial forces lead to capillarity. The forces of attraction between the water molecules and the glass walls and among the water molecules themselves are what causes the water in a thin tube submerged in water to rise.

Hence, the water rises up a thin capillary tube can be explained by Newton's third law.

To learn more about the force refer to the link;
