Why dose the weight of an object change with increasing elevation on earth

Physics
1 answer:
bulgar [2K]3 years ago
6 0

Because the strength of the gravitational forces between two objects
depends on the distance between the objects' centers, and when your
elevation changes, so does the distance between your center and the
center of the Earth.

Two objects attract each other gravitationally. If the distance between their centers decreases by a factor of 2, how does the g
kramer

Answer:

The gravitational force between them increases by a factor of 4

Explanation:

Gravitational force is a force of attraction between two objects with masses M and m which are separated by a distance R. It is given mathematically as:

Fg = GMm/R²

Where G = Gravitational constant.

If the distance between their centers, R, decreases by a factor of 2, then it means the new distance between their centers is:

r = R/2

Hence,the gravitational force becomes:

Fg = GMm/r²

Fg = GMm/(R/2)²

Fg = GMm/(R²/4)

Fg = 4GMm/R²

Hence,the gravitational force increases by a factor of 4.

It takes 200 N to move a box 10 meters in 8 seconds. How much power is
svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

The equation of power is defined as Power = Workdone/Time Taken

And workdone = Force x Distance so using these equations we get they workdone is, 200x 10 = 2000Nm.

Dividing workdone with time will yield power, 2000 ÷ 8 = 250 Nm/s = 250W.

A car starts from rest and accelerated at a rate of 9m/s squared for 6.5 seconds. How much distance was covered by the car?
ki77a [65]

Answer:

58.5 meters

Explanation:

1. Find your formula. Use distance = speed x time for this problem

2. Plug in the given information. d (for distance) = 9m/s^2 * 6.5 s

3. Multiply number AND units. d = 58.5m

4. Check to make sure units & numbers make sense. In this case check that the answer is a lot bigger than what we stated with and that our units go with distance
