Answer:
The correct option is;
The acceleration remains constant
Explanation:
The acceleration is due to the force of gravitational attraction between the text book and the Earth
According to Newton's law of gravitation, there is an attractive force between all objects given by the following relation;
F = G×M₁×m₂/r²
Where;
G, M₁, m₂, and r are constant such that we have;
G×M₁/r² = Constant = The acceleraton due to gravity, g
F = g×m₂
So the acceleration of the textbook as it is being attracted by the force of gravity towards the ground (Earth) is remains constant.
Relation between electrostatic force and distance is inverse square i.e
1
Fα ----
r^2
Hence if r is tripled, new electrostatic force will be 1/9 times old force.
Answer:
liquid?
Explanation:
liquid: A substance that flows and keeps no definite shape because its molecules are loosely packed and constantly moving. It takes the shape of its container but maintains constant volume.
Answer:
Answer:
72.936 Joule
Explanation:
Mechanical Energy = Potential Energy + Kinetic Energy
Kinetic Energy = (1/2) x m x V² = (1/2) x 1.8 x 4.8² = 20.736 J
Potential Energy = m x g x h = 1.8 x 10 x 2.9 = 52.2 J
Total Mechanical Energy = 20.736 + 52.2 = 72.936 Joule
Explanation:
When you say "heavy", you're talking about the gravitational force
between that object and another object, so it depends on what the
"other object" is.
If the "other object" is, let's say, the sun, then the gravitational attraction
between the Earth and sun is about 80 times as much as the gravitational
attraction between the Moon and sun, because the Earth has about 80 times
the mass of the Moon.
But if, somehow, the weight you have in mind is the gravitational attraction
between the Earth and the Moon, then those forces are equal. The force
of gravity between two objects depends on the product of both masses,
and it's equal in both directions.
If that isn't clear to you, let me give you this additional fact that's guaranteed
to knock you even further off-balance:
Your weight on the Earth is determined by the product of
(your mass) times (the Earth's mass).
The Earth's weight on you is determined by the product of
(your mass) times (the Earth's mass).
Your weight on Earth is the same as the Earth's weight on you.
Would you like to prove it ?
-- Turn the bathroom scale upside-down, so that the step-pad
is on the floor.
-- Then step on it, so that you're standing on the bottom, which
is facing up.
-- If you placed a little mirror on the floor, so that you can read
the numbers, which are facing down toward the floor, you'll
read your own weight, even though with the scale upside-down,
you're weighing the Earth on you.
