True

Explanation:

It is correct to say that the salinity of the oceans has been relatively constant throughout geologic time because salt is removed at the same rate it has been added.

Salinity is the amount of dissolved salt found in the ocean. It is the degree of saltiness of the ocean.

  • The rate at which salt has been added into the ocean over the years through geologic time has been very constant.
  • Most salts in the ocean comes from land.
  • Also the rate it has been removed is fairly constant.
  • The salinity of ocean has once been used to date the age of the earth.

(a) Calculate the magnitude of the gravitational force exerted by Mars on a 80 kg human standing on the surface of Mars. (The ma
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

a) F=1.044\times 10^9\ N

b)F'=1.044\times 10^9\ N

c) F_p=1.0672\times10^{-7}\ N

d) Treat the humans as though they were points or uniform-density spheres.

Explanation:

Given:

  • mass of Mars, M=6.4\times 10^{23}\ kg
  • radius of the Mars, r=3.4\times 10^{6}\ m
  • mass of human, m=80\ kg

a)

Gravitation force exerted by the Mars on the human body:

F=G.\frac{M.m}{r^2}

where:

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

F=6.67\times10^{-11}\times \frac{6.4\times 10^{23}\times 80}{(3.4\times 10^{6})^2}

F=1.044\times 10^9\ N

b)

The magnitude of the gravitational force exerted by the human on Mars is equal to the force by the Mars on human.

F'=F

F'=1.044\times 10^9\ N

c)

When a similar person of the same mass is standing at a distance of 4 meters:

F_p=6.67\times10^{-11}\times \frac{80\times 80}{4}

F_p=1.0672\times10^{-7}\ N

d)

The gravitational constant is a universal value and it remains constant in the Universe and does not depends on the size of the mass.

  • Yes, we have to treat Mars as spherically symmetric so that its center of mass is at its geometric center.
  • Yes, we also have to ignore the effect of sun, but as asked in the question we have to calculate the gravitational force only due to one body on another specific body which does not brings sun into picture of the consideration.

Vladimir [108]
<span>The first stage in the Gas model of stress is alarm and mobilization. So the correct option in regards to the given question is option “d”. Hans Selye is the person that evolved this model and he has explained this model in complete details.  He has broken down his model into three stages. The first stage involves alarm and mobilization. The second stage includes resistance. The third and the final stage include the exhaustion stage. These are the stages that an organism goes through to restore back the balance when stress is exerted from outside. </span>
