The forces are gravity (weighing down) and internal gas pressure (pushing away from the surface).
False, some adults will know more than your friends as they are already grown up and may have experienced the problem already
Albert Einstein came up with the theory of general relativity to explain the law of gravity, whilst Newton's three laws of gravity is universal. To understand this further, it's best to understand it in scientific terms.
The weird thing about science is that words that are used in a colloquial sense may have a completely opposite definition in scientific terms.
A law in science is a constant and invariable statement that is universal. Wherever you may be in the universe, Newton's three laws of gravity will always be applied.
The word "theory" doesn't imply conjecture or an idea someone made up after a night of drinking. In science, a theory is the highest level of certainty behind mathematical proof -- which isn't even a part of science, obviously. A theory has to be substantiated by all available evidence and contradicted by none. All theories also have to have to be falsifiable. For this reason, theories can never be proven. Einstein's theory of general relativity has great predictive power, but in some cases, the predictions aren't always constant. Theories are often revised to fit new available evidence.
ummmm it might be 300... i used a calculator
sorry if it is wrong
<em>Iron, and to a lesser degree, steel, can only become magnetised by passing an electrical current through it (an electromagnet). So a steel ship does not become magnetised in the accepted sense during construction. </em>
<span><em>However, any large mass of iron will affect the accuracy of a magnetic compass, causing it to deviate wildly from magnetic North. This problem was encountered when iron ships were first constructed in the mid-19 Century. It was overcome by mounting the compass in a 'binnacle', a housing containing two large soft iron balls either side of the compass itself, which counteracted the effect of the hull and balanced the compass so that it read correctly</em></span>
