Bigger objects have more gravitational pull. Bigger, meaning the size and mass. The closer you are to the object, the stronger the pull is. The earth is much bigger, and has a bigger mass than the moon, meaning that the moon is able to orbit around the earth. You are closer to the earth, so you dont randomly get pulled towards thw moon, because earts gravitational pull is stronger than the moons.

A person can jump 1.5m on the earth. How high could the person jump on a planet having the twice the mass of the earth and twice
MrMuchimi
F=mg=Gm1m2/r^2
g=Gm2/r^2
g=2Gm2/(2r)^2=2Gm2/4r^2=Gm2/2r^2
So since there is half times the gravity on this unknown planet that has twice earth's mass and twice it's radius, then the person can jump twice as high. 1.5*2= 3m high

If a positive test charge is placed in an electric field, what is the direction of the force on the test charge?
svetlana [45]

Explanation:

If a positive test charge is placed in an electric field, it will exert the force in the test charge in the direction of electric field vector. We know that the direction of electric field is given by electric field lines. The field lines for a positive charge is outwards. The electric force acting on the charge is given by :

F = q E

Hence, this is the required solution.
