Explanation:

Hey there!

According to the law of gravitation, the factors that affects the gravity are:

Mass of the heavenly bodies.
Distance from the centre of the body to next body.

Mass of heavenly bodies:The mass of heavenly bodies affect the gravity. We know that gravity is directly proportional to the mass of heavenly bodies. so, when the mass is more there is more gravity and where there is less mass there is less gravity.

Distance from the centre of the body to next body: It is one of the factor to influence gravity. When there is more distance there is less gravity and where there is distance more force is there. Is means gravity is inversely proportional to the distance between the bodies.

Hope it helps...

A person walking covers 5.20 m in 10.4 s. How fast is the person moving?

salantis [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Velocity = distance over time

where distance = 5.20 m

time = 10.4 s.

velocity = 5.20 m

10.4 s.

= 0.50 m/s

Assume that the test tube shown started out having 10.00 g of mercury(II) oxide. After heating the test tube briefly, you find 1

anyanavicka [17]

This problem is providing information about the initial mass of mercury (II) oxide (10.00 g) which is able to produce liquid mercury (8.00 g) and gaseous oxygen and asks for the resulting mass of the latter, which turns out to be 0.65 g after doing the corresponding calculations.

Initially, it is given a mass of 10.00 g of the oxide and 1.35 g are left which means that the following mass is consumed:

$m_{HgO}^{consumed}=10.00g-1.35 g=8.65 g$

Now, since 8.00 grams of liquid mercury are collected, it is possible to calculate the grams of oxygen that were produced, by considering the law of conservation of mass, which states that the mass of the products equal that of the reactants as it is nor destroyed nor created. In such a way, the mass of oxygen turns out to be:

$m_{O_2}=8.65g-8.00g=0.65g$
