<span>The force of gravity between a planet and a person or object on
its surface is called the person or object's weight on that planet.

The planet's weight on the person or object is exactly the same number,
because gravity always acts as an equal pair of forces ... one in each direction.

damaskus [11]

Answer

Hertzsprung-Russell (HR) diagram is an essential tool used in stellar evolution. In the universe, there are several hundreds of billions of stars. Scientists use the tool, in differentiation, the billions of stars in the world from the sun. In the HR tool, there is plotting of the luminosity or energy output of a star, which is plotted on the X-axis of a graph against the absolute magnitude. The sun's magnitude is an absolute of +48, which, when plotted against its luminosity, helps in setting an apparent variance between the sun and any other star. Additionally, the sun has been identified as the primary star with a very high temperature. Hence the tool can locate the sun from other forms of stars. HR diagrams outline data such as temperature and luminosity or energy. However, star distance from the Erath is not a type of data represented in the charts.

Hope this helped you!

A scientist examines a large pot of boiling water and a small cup of boiling water. The scientist determines that the large pot
saul85 [17]

Answer:

d. The large pot of water and small cup of water have the same temperature, but the large pot of water has higher thermal energy.

Explanation:

Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of individual molecules. While internal energy refers to the total kinetic energy of the molecules within the object. Since in this case we have the same amount of average kinetic energy, then the large pot of water and small cup of water have the same temperature. While the large pot of water has higher thermal energy, since has more water particles than the small cup.

I believe the answer would be C because potential energy is affected by height and mass. The truck in photo C is the highest and has a lot of mass.

What is the acceleration of an object that goes from 45m/s to 10 m/s in 5 seconds?
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf a= -7 \ m/s^2}}

Explanation:

Acceleration is the change in velocity over time.

a= \frac {v_f-v_i}{t}

The object accelerates <em>from</em> 45 meters per second <em>to </em>10 meters per second in 5 seconds. Therefore,

v_f=10 \ m/s \\v_i= 45 \ m/s \\t= 5 \ s

Substitute the values into the formula.

a= \frac{ 10 \ m/s - 45 \ m/s}{5 \ s}

Solve the numerator.

a= \frac { -35 \ m/s}{5 \ s}

Divide.

a= -7 \ m/s/s

a= -7 \ m/s^2

The acceleration of the object is -7 meters per square second. The acceleration is negative because the object's velocity decreases and the object slows down.

How does the gravity which pulls the moon and earth toward each other also affect the ocean?
slamgirl [31]
Gravity is what holds the planets in orbit around the sun and what keeps the moon in orbit around Earth. The gravitational pull of the moon pulls the seas towards it, causing the ocean tides. Gravity creates stars and planets by pulling together the material from which they are made.
