Answer:

Explanation:

In order to answer this question, we simply have to refer to the laws of the equations of gravitational mechanics.

The equation given by Newton tells us that  

F = \frac{Gm_{1} m_{2}  }{r^{2} }

In the case where we compare a specific place where the Force of Gravity is greater or lesser, we focus on the term assigned to the Planet's Radius.

In the case of G, m_{1} ,m_{2}, we understand that they are constant.

We can easily notice that the more the Radius (Height seen from a viewer on the ground), the lower the force will be.

In other words, the smaller the radius in which the measurement is made with respect to the center of the earth, the greater the gravitational force.

In that order of ideas the smallest radio has South Pole, which is about 6356 km from the center of the Earth on the Equator line

I WILL MARK YOU AS BRAINLIEST IF RIGHT The fastest pitch ever recorded in MLB was thrown by Aroldis Chapman at 5 points 105.1 mp
Goshia [24]

Answer: The force was 13.92 Newtons.

Explanation:

First, let's recall the second Newton's law:

The net force is equal to the mass times the acceleration, or:

F = m*a

where:

F = force

m = mass

a = acceleration.

When the player hits the ball with the bat, he applies a force that accelerates the ball for a small period of time, that increases greatly the speed of the ball.

In this case, we know that:

the mass of the ball is 0.145 kg

The acceleration of the ball is 96m/s^2

Then we can input those values in the above equation to find the force.

F = 0.145kg*96m/s^2 = 13.92 N

The force was 13.92 Newtons.

In nuclear reaction 5 kg of reactants give 2kg of products
dlinn [17]
Choice A is correct.======Kinetic energy equation:   KE = (1/2)(m)(v²)This tells us that KE is directly proportional to mass and the square of velocity. In other words, the more mass and more velocity an object has, the more kinetic energy.If an object is sitting at the top of a ramp, there is no velocity and therefore no kinetic energy.    Choices B and D are wrong.A golf ball has more mass than a ping-pong ball, so a ping-pong ball would have less kinetic energy than a golf ball rolling off the end of a ramp.    Choice C is wrong.Choice A is correct.

Frank has a sample of steel that has a mass of 80 grams if the density is 8g/cm3 what is the volume
nikklg [1K]
Density is mass divided by volume. rho=m/v. So, v=m/rho. In frank's case this is 80/8 = 10 cm^3.

What statement is true about earth tectonic plates
DaniilM [7]
Continent jig-saw shapes when puzzled and combined together, formed one big continent - Pangea, and was separated by drifts.

Fossil comparisons of different species were discovered into two different, separated continents in which when you combine them, they were one in the past.

Seismic, volcanic, and geothermal activity are found along imagined plate boundaries. 

Plates were actually rubbing against each other as evidence is seen on the formed mountain ranges.
