Answer: C
The gravity acceleration is in the same direction as the force of gravity, and thus toward the center of the earth.
Explanation:
All celestial bodies in our solar system experience forces between each other. On earth, the localized gravitational force in the earth's atmosphere is directed toward the center of the earth. It's magnitude is
32.174 ft/s² in English units,
9.807 m/s² in SI units.
All objects that have mass are subject to the earth's gravitational acceleration. The product of mass and the earth's gravitational acceleration defines the weight of an object as its gravitational force.
Answer:
The correct option is;
D) The force exerted on the astronaut by Earth is equal to the force exerted on Earth by the astronaut
Explanation:
According to Newton's third law of motion, in nature, for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction, such that if a first object exerts a certain amount of force on a second object, the second object will exert a force of equal magnitude and opposite direction to that exerted by the first object
Therefore, the gravitational force exerted by Earth on the astronaut, is equal to the force exerted by the astronaut on Earth.

Answer: 1000 J</h2>
The Work
done by a Force
refers to the release of potential energy from a body that is moved by the application of that force to overcome a resistance along a path.
It should be noted that it is a scalar magnitude, and its unit in the International System of Units is the Joule (like energy). Therefore, 1 Joule is the work done by a force of 1 Newton when moving an object, in the direction of the force, along 1 meter:
Now, when the applied force is constant and the direction of the force and the direction of the movement are parallel, the equation to calculate it is:
(1)
When they are not parallel, both directions form an angle, let's call it
. In that case the expression to calculate the Work is:
(2)
For example, in order to push the 200 N box across the floor, you have to apply a force along the distance
to overcome the resistance of the weight of the box (its 200 N).
In this case both <u>(the force and the distance in the path) are parallel</u>, so the work
performed is the product of the force exerted to push the box
by the distance traveled
. as shown in equation (1).
Hence:
>>>>This is the work
According to Newton’s second law of motion:
F=ma
=80*0.5
=40N
This is your perfect answer
The base unit for time is the second (the other SI units are: metre for length, kilogram for mass, ampere for electric current, kelvin for temperature, candela for luminous intensity, and mole for the amount of substance). The second can be abbreviated as s or sec.
