Answer:No, it doesn't move easily downward because it will try to resist the movement ,due to a resistance force of inertia that it possess at rest.
Explanation:when an object has higher or larger mass it tends to resist any motion given to it unlike the one with lower mass.
The larger the mass the more resistance force an object has.
The second option rolling friction
Answer:
0.01606 Newtons
Explanation:
r = Distance between the asteroid and Sally = 17000000 m
m₁ = Mass of the asteroid = 8.7× 10²⁰ kg
m₂ = Mass of Sally = 80 kg
G = Gravitational constant = 6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ m³/kgs²
From Newton's Universal law of gravity

The force Sally experiences is 0.01606 Newtons
Answer:
Explanation:
given
T = 3months = 7.9 × 10⁶s
orbital speed = 88 × 10³m/s
V= 2πr÷T
∴ r = (V×T) ÷ 2π
r = (88km × 7.9 × 10⁶s) ÷ 2π
r = 1.10 × 10⁸km
using kepler's 3rd law
mass of both stars = (seperation diatance)³/(orbital speed)²
M₁ + M₂ = (2r)³/(
year)²
= (1.06 × 10²⁵)/(6.2×10¹³)
1.71×10¹²kg
since M₁ = M₂ =1.71×10¹²kg ÷ 2
M₁ = M₂ = 8.55×10¹¹kg
