Answer:
The distance of the object to the center of the earth increases.
Explanation:
The acceleration due to gravity on Earth is given by:
where
G is the gravitational constant
M is the Earth's mass
r is the distance of the object from the Earth's centre
We notice that:
- g does not depend on the mass of the object
- g is inversely proportional to r
This means that if the distance of the object from the Earth's centre increases, g decreases. So, the correct option is
The distance of the object to the center of the earth increases.
The energy achieved I think
3.13 m/s2
.
the formula for acceleration is as follows:
force/mass = acceleration
-
so 25/8 = 3.13
Velocity is the answer..
hope that helps
When we say "<span>The moon's surface gravity is one-sixth that of the earth.",
we mean that the acceleration of gravity on the Moon's surface is 1/6 of
the acceleration of gravity on the Earth's surface.
The acceleration of gravity is (9.8 m/s</span>²) on the Earth's surface, so
<span>it would be (9.8/6 m/s</span>²) on the Moon's surface.

The weight of any object, right now, is
(object's mass) </span>· (acceleration of gravity where the object is located now) .
<span>
If the object's mass is 24 kg and the object is on the Moon right now,
then its weight is
(24 kg) </span>· (9.8/6 m/s²)
= (24 · 9.8 / 6) kg-m/s²
= 39.2 Newtons
