Why does the Earth exert a gravitational force on objects on its surface?

Physics
1 answer:
andre [41]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

B. It has mass

Explanation:

The Newtons Universal gravitacion law is : F = G.\frac{m1 m2}{d^{2} }  , where <u>F</u> is the force exerted , <u>m1</u> and <u>m2</u> are the earth's mass and the object's mass, <u>d</u> is the distance and <u>G</u> the gravitacional constant. Comparing to the options we can say that the Earth exerts a gravitational force on objects on its surface because of its mass.

all objects near the earths surface-regardless of size and weight have the same force of gravity acting on them. is it true or f
pickupchik [31]

False: the force of gravity acting on different objects is different and depends on their mass

Explanation:

The answer is false.

The force of gravity acting on an object (also known as weight) near the Earth's surface is given by:

F=mg

where:

m is the mass of the object

g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

We see from the formula that the force of gravity acting on an object depends on the mass: the larger the mass of the object, the stronger the gravitational force acting on it, and the smaller the mass, the weaker the force of gravity.

The factor that does not change is the acceleration of gravity, which is constant (9.8 m/s^2) if we are near the Earth's surface, and implies that all the objects in free fall accelerate at the same rate towards the ground, regardless of their size and weight.

Describe what happens to chemical<br> bonds during a chemical reaction
dimulka [17.4K]

Explanation:

The bonds that keep molecules together break apart and form new bonds during chemical reactions, rearranging atoms into different substances. Each bond takes a distinct amount of energy to either break or form; the reaction does not take place without this energy, and the reactants stay as they were.
