Gravity is a force between any two objects with mass. Why doesn't a person feel a gravitational force between him/herself and an

other person?
A) A person doesn't exert a gravitational force.

B) The two gravitational forces cancel each other out.

C) The gravitational forces of people is so small it is
overshadowed by that of Earth.

D) There are so many people we are actually balanced by all the different gravitational forces.

The answer would be C. The gravitational force between two bodies however it is too small that it is overshadowed by that of earth. Gravitational force is the weakest force of all. Each body with a mass exerts a gravitational force onto each other but this value is so small that it can be neglected.

A ball is released from the top of a hill. How fast is the ball going when it reaches the base of the hill? Approximate g as 10
irina [24]
First I’ll show you this standard derivation using conservation of energy:
Pi=Kf,
mgh = 1/2 m v^2,
V = sqrt(2gh)
P is initial potential energy, K is final kinetic, m is mass of object, h is height from stopping point, v is final velocity.
In this case the height difference for the hill is 2-0.5=1.5 m. Thus the ball is moving at sqrt(2(10)(1.5))=
5.477 m/s.

The energy of the electron in Hydrogen atom can be shown to be given by En = -13.6/n^2 eV, where n represents the principal quan
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

This represents radiation in ultra-violet region .

Explanation:

Energy of the orbit where n = 3 is given as follows

E_3 =- \frac{13.6 }{3^2}

E_3 =- \frac{13.6 }{9} = -1.511 eV

Energy of the orbit where n = 1 is given as follows

E_1 =- \frac{13.6 }{1^2}

E_1 =- \frac{13.6 }{1} = 13.6 eV

Difference of [tex]E_3 and [tex]E_1 = - 1.511+ 13.6

= 12.089 eV.

The wavelength of light having this energy in nm is given by the expression as follows

Wavelength in nm = 1244 / energy in eV

= 1244 / 12.089

= 102.90 nm

This represents radiation in ultra-violet region .

A 2.0-kilogram mass is located 3.0 meters above
leva [86]

The correct answer is: Option (3) 9.8 N/kg

Explanation:

According to Newton's Law of Gravitation:

F_g = \frac{GmM}{R^2} --- (1)

Where G = Gravitational constant = 6.67408 × 10⁻¹¹ m³ kg⁻¹ s⁻²

m = Mass of the body = 2 kg

M = Mass of the Earth = 5.972 × 10²⁴ kg

R = Distance of the object from the center of the Earth = Radius of the Earth + Object's distance from the surface of the Earth = (6371 * 10³) + 3.0 = 6371003 m

Plug in the values in (1):

(1)=> F_g = \frac{6.67408 * 10^{-11} * 2 * 5.972*10^{24}}{(6371003)^2} = 19.63

Now that we have force strength at the location, we can use:

Force = mass * gravitational-field-strength

Plug in the values:

19.63 = 2.0 * gravitational-field-strength

gravitational-field-strength = 19.63/2 = 9.82 N/kg

Hence the correct answer is Option (3) 9.8 N/kg
