Answer:

It will double.

Explanation:

Apparent weight is the weight of a physical body affected by a force of gravity different of that of the athmosphere.  Thus, the lower the gravity, that is, the lower the attraction of one body to another, the lower the apparent weight of the object on which the gravitational force is exerted; while the opposite occurs if the gravitational force is greater. In other words, the apparent weight of an object is determined by the gravitational force exerted on it: the greater the force, the greater the weight. Therefore, as the outer ring has twice the force of gravity than the inner ring, the apparent weight of the astronaut will double as well.

A grain silo is shown below:grain silo formed by cylinder with radius 5 feet and height 175 feet and a half sphere on the topwha
nekit [7.7K]
Find the volume of the bottom and top separately and then add them.
Cylinder volume is the area of the bottom times the height
(22/7)(5^2)•175=13750 ft^3

The volume of a sphere is
V=(4/3)(22/7)r^3
where r is the radius. Here that's also 5 since it fits on the cylinder.
Also we only want half the sphere so use
V=(2/3)(22/7)•5^3=261.9 ft^3
Which we round upto 262.
Now add the parts together
13750+262=14,012 ft^3

Balanced forces acting on an object cause the object to accelerate. Please select the best answer from the choices provided T F
Pani-rosa [81]
False
Balanced forces mean that there is no net force acting on the object. therefore, the object will not accelerate.

Does gravity have an effect on the potential difference of a battery?
Sonja [21]

Answer: The correct answer is "No".

Explanation:

Gravity: It is the force which causes object to fall on the earth. It is the force which attracts bodies towards each other.

Potential difference: It is defined as the potential acting between the two points. The work done in moving the unit positive charge from one location to the another location.

The potential difference in battery is caused by the electrodes. There are two terminals in battery: Negative terminal which is at lower potential and Positive terminal which is at higher potential. It forces the electrons to flow in the circuit which constitutes the current.

The gravity and the potential difference have no relation between them.

Therefore, gravity have no effect on the potential difference of a battery.
