Answer:
6.378 * 10^6 m
Explanation:
Radius = 6378 km
Changing in metres
6378 km = 6378000 m
Now in scientific notation
= 6.378 * 10 ^ 6 m
Answer:
20.2
Explanation: Divide 726/34 and you get 20.16 round it and you get 20.2
The acceleration due to gravity is given as:
g = GM/r²
<h3>
Derivation of gravitational acceleration:</h3>
According to Newton's second law of motion,
F = ma
where,
F = force
m = mass
a = acceleration
According to Newton's law of gravity,
F<em>g </em>= GMm/(r + h)²
F<em>g = </em>gravitational force
From Newton's second law of motion,
F<em>g </em>= ma
a = F<em>g</em>/m
We can refer to "a" as "g"
a = g = GMm/(m)(r + h)²
g = GM/(r + h)²
When the object is on or close to the surface, the value of g is constant and height has no considerable impact. Hence, it can be written as,
g = GM/r²
