6 0

Answer:

These lines are called lines of longitudes.

Explanation:

There is a difference between longitudes and lines of longitudes.

  1. Longitude: It is the angular distance from one point location to another point location on the globe.This angular distance is measured with the help of lines of longitudes.
  2. Lines of longitudes: These are imaginary lines that run around the Earth vertically (up and down) and meet at the North and South Poles. These lines are also termed as meridians. The Prime Meridian is located at 0° and the lines of longitude run east and west of Prime Meridian. There are 360 longitudes in total (180 east and 180 west of Prime Meridian). Further, all longitudes are also great circles.

2. If both the mass and radius of the earth, each decreases by 50%, the acceleration due to gravity would (a) remain same (b) de
Scrat [10]

Answer:

(d) increase by 100%

Explanation:

m_{i} = initial mass of earth = m

m_{f} = final mass of earth = (0.5) m

R_{i} = initial radius of earth = R

R_{f} = final radius of earth = (0.5) R

g_{i} = initial acceleration due to gravity of earth = g

g_{f} = final acceleration due to gravity of earth

initial acceleration due to gravity of earth is given as

g_{i} = \frac{Gm_{i}}{R_{i}^{2}}                             Eq-1

Final acceleration due to gravity of earth is given as

g_{f} = \frac{Gm_{f}}{R_{f}^{2}}                             Eq-2

Dividing eq-1 by eq-2

\frac{g_{i}}{g_{f}} = \frac{m_{i}}{m_{f}}\frac{R_{f}^{2}}{R_{i}^{2}}

inserting the values

\frac{g}{g_{f}} = \frac{m_{i}}{(0.5)m_{i}}\frac{(0.5)^{2}R_{i}^{2}}{R_{i}^{2}}

g_{f} = 2 g

So there is 100% increase
