Answer:

0.31%

Explanation:

The acceleration due to gravity at sea level is:

g = GM / R²

where G is the gravitational constant, M is the mass of Earth, and R is the radius of the Earth.

The acceleration due to gravity a height h above sea level is:

g' = GM / (R+h)²

The percent variation is:

(g − g') / g

= 1 − g'/g

= 1 − [GM / (R+h)²] / [GM / R²]

= 1 − R² / (R+h)²

= 1 − (R / (R+h))²

The average radius of the Earth is 6370 km.  The height of the balloon is 10 km.

1 − (6370 / (6370 + 10))²

0.0031

3. a) If the distance between two objects increases by a factor of 5 (5),
irina [24]

Answer:

Answer for A

Explanation:

F1=GmM/r1^2

If r2 becomes r2=5r

F2=GmM/(25r^2)

Multiply with 25 gives to maintain the same force

I.e.,25F2=F1

F2=G(25m)M/25r^2=F1

By the factor 25 would change to increase to same.

Explain Why a flying aeroplane has more Kinetic Energy than a flying insect?
Airida [17]

Answer:

Why do insects fly so high?

Because the angle of attack is so high, a lot of momentum is transferred downward into the flow. These two features create a large amount of lift force as well as some additional drag. The important feature, however, is the lift.

Why an Aeroplane flying has kinetic  

A flying aeroplane has potential energy has it flies above the ground level. And since the aeroplane is flying motion is associated with it and thus possesses kinetic energy. Hence a flying aeroplane has both potential and kinetic energ

A cello string 0.75 m long has a 220 hz fundamental frequency. find the wave speed along the vibrating string. answer in units o
maxonik [38]
For fundamental frequency of a string to occur, the length of the string has to be half the wavelength. That is,

1/2y = L, where L = length of the string, y = wavelength.

Therefore,
y = 2L = 2*0.75 =1.5 m

Additionally,
y = v/f Where v = wave speed, and f = ferquncy

Then,
v = y*f = 1.5*220 = 330 m/s
