Answer:

Perpendicular to the surface of the body.

Explanation:

When a surface is submerged in a fluid the resultant pressure force on the body acts perpendicular to the surface of the body. This is because fluids cannot withstand nor exert sideways forces. One could obtain this analytically considering that the origin of this force comes from the movement of the fluid molecules.

As a planet's semimajor axis gets smaller, its speed will _______ and its period will _________ .
Rufina [12.5K]
Well first of all, a planet doesn't have a semimajor axis, although it's orbit does.

In an orbit with a smaller semimajor axis, the planet moves faster, and its orbital period is shorter.

That's why the International Space Station circles the Earth in less time than the Moon does.

Why do we feel the force of gravity from the Earth but we don’t feel the force of gravity from the moon?
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

The gravitational force on the moon is less than on Earth because the strength of gravity is determined by an object's mass. The bigger the object, the bigger the gravitational force. Gravity is pretty much everywhere. We just feel it in different ways depending on our state of motion.
