in directly the opposite direction of the force of gravity. B. The force of gravity is slightly lower at the bottom of a mountain than it is at the top. C. The gravity acceleration is in the same direction as the force of gravity, and thus toward the center of the earth. D. The gravity acceleration is in the same direction as the force of gravity, and thus away from the center of the earth.

Answer: C
The gravity acceleration is in the same direction as the force of gravity, and thus toward the center of the earth.

Explanation:
All celestial bodies in our solar system experience forces between each other. On earth, the localized gravitational force in the earth's atmosphere is directed toward the center of the earth. It's magnitude is
32.174 ft/s² in English units,
9.807 m/s² in SI units.

All objects that have mass are subject to the earth's gravitational acceleration. The product of mass and the earth's gravitational acceleration defines the weight of an object as its gravitational force.

geniusboy [140]
Blue light will bend more than the others because it has a slightly greater refractive index. This is because blue light has a shorter wavelength and more energy, meaning it has to slow down more than the others when it hits the water.

A machine whose efficiency is 75% is used to lift a load of 100m.calculate the effort put into the machine if it has a velocity
aliina [53]

Explanation:

M.A = load / Effort

efficiency = M.A/V.R X 100

75 = M.A / 4 X 100

75 = 25 X M.A

M.A = 75/25 = 3

M.A = load / effort

3 = 100/E

E = 100/3 = 33.333

In a cup game if the teams have the same score at the end of the match, 30 minutes of ------- are played.
Alina [70]

Answer:

second lag

Explanation:

If in a cup game, a specified time limit is assigned to both teams to score high. If both teams are unable to score or if score of both the teams is equal then there is another second lag played where each team tries to score high. Even if in second lag both teams fail to score higher than other the last third lag is played or else game is declared draw.

Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

the second time there is a gas between you and the star,

Explanation:

When you observe the star for the first time you do not have a given between you and the star, therefore you observe the emission spectrum of the same that is formed by lines of different intensity and position that indicate the type and percentage of the atoms that make up the star.

 When you observe the same phenomenon for the second time there is a gas between you and the star, this gas absorbs the wavelengths of the star that has the same energies and the atomisms and molecular gas, therefore these lines are not observed by seeing a series of dark bands,

The information obtained from the two spectra is the same, the type of atoms that make up the star

Andrei [34K]

Answer:

<em>C. the blue colour of the Earth's sky</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

The Pleiades is a cluster of sister stars that are among the closest star cluster to earth.

The reflection nebula of the Pleiades is due to the scattering of the blue light from the hot blue luminous stars that dominate the star cluster. Th blue light is scattered from dust molecules, thought to be predominantly carbon compound like diamond dusts, and other compounds like iron.

The blue colour of the Earth's sky is the closest terrestrial phenomenon to the reflection nebula. On a clear cloudless day, molecules in the air scatter the blue component of light more than the other component colours of white light, giving the sky its characteristic blue coluor.

The common characteristics of the luminous nebula and the Earth's blue sky is that they both have their light scattered by the presence of small particles.
