Answer;
- This statement about matter and its behavior is best classified as a Law.
-It is the Law of Universal Gravitation.
Explanation;
-The Law of Universal Gravitation states that every point mass attracts every other point mass in the universe by a force pointing in a straight line between the centers-of-mass of both points, and this force is proportional to the masses of the objects and inversely proportional to their separation.This attractive force always points inward, from one point to the other.
-The Law applies to all objects with masses, big or small. Two big objects can be considered as point-like masses, if the distance between them is very large compared to their sizes or if they are spherically symmetric.
Here's the part you need to know:
(Weight of anything) =
(the thing's mass)
times
(acceleration of gravity in the place where the thing is) .
Weight = (mass ) x (gravity) .
That's always true everywhere.
You should memorize it.
For the astronaut on Saturn . . .
Weight = (mass ) x (gravity) .
Weight = (68 kg) x (10.44 m/s²)
= 709.92 newtons .
__________________________________
On Earth, gravity is only 9.8 m/s².
So as long as the astronaut is on Earth, his weight is only
(68 kg) x (9.8 m/s²)
= 666.4 newtons .
Notice that his mass is his mass ... it doesn't change
no matter where he goes.
But his weight changes in different places, because
it depends on the gravity in each place.
Answer:
a = 0
Explanation:
The velocity of a sound wave in a straight line is 660 mph. The wave is moving with a constant velocity. It means that the change in velocity is equal to 0.
We know that acceleration of an object is equal to the change in velocity divided by time taken. But here the change in velocity is 0. As a result the acceleration of the sound wave is 0.
