Answer:

So an object with mass is attracted to another object with mass, and the gravitational force is directly proportional to the masses of the two objects, and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the two objects.

If distance were to increase, than the gravitational force would decrease. If mass were to increase, so would the gravitational force.

Explanation:

Lets take gravitational force(F) and mass(m) and distance (r)

now for a body in contact with the surface of the earth, its mass is also considered(m‘),now the mass of the earth(m") is also considered,then the distance from the body to the center of the earth (r).ie it r because its practically the radius of the earth. is also considered

So by using dimensional analysis ....

we get F a m'•m"/r² ,where a is proportional to.

now since F is directly increaseproportional to m ie. F a m, then an increase in mass of the body increases it's gravitational force(and clearly that makes sense because the bigger you are the stronger you get pulled to the ground)

then we also see that F is inversely proportional to r ie.F a 1/r ,then an increase in the distance between the ground an the object decrease it's gravitational force ( meaning as any object on earth keeps on moving away from the ground the gravitational force between the object and the center of the earth is weak, when it reaches space then the force becomes virtually negligible!)

So to answer the second question, we clearly see that doubling the mass of the body increases the gravitational force between it and the earth

and doubling the distance on the other hand will decrease the attraction between the body and the earth

So a body forcefully projected into the air fights against gravity but its easier as it keeps on getting higher, If it has a greater mass like that of a trail or truck , it will not even probably stay in the air for long , unless its projected with a very high velocity

I hope this helps, and you can ask me any question concerning this via the comments platform.

Taden has found a table of the atmospheric layers of the Sun. However, he can’t make out the names of the layers in the chart.

zhenek [66]

The sun is a ball of hot gases containing different kinds of elements at different cores. It has a very high temperature that radiates all throughout the Milky Way galaxy. The sun has three main parts; photosphere, chromospheres and corona. The outer core of a star located at the chromospheres contains mostly of hydrogen. Inside the hydrogen is helium then carbon, oxygen, neon, magnesium silicon and the inert gas. The photosphere is scattered by the loose electrons in the corona’s plasma.

If the escalator pulls you up a slope of 30.0o and moves with a velocity of 3.10m/s. What is the vertical component of your v

ioda

Answer:

$1.55\ \text{m/s}$

$2.68\ \text{m/s}$

Explanation:

v = Velocity of the elevator = 3.1 m/s

$\theta$ = Angle of the slope = $30^{\circ}$

Vertical component is given by

$v_y=v\sin\theta\\\Rightarrow v_y=3.1\sin30^{\circ}\\\Rightarrow v_y=1.55\ \text{m/s}$

The vertical component of the velocity is $1.55\ \text{m/s}$ .

Horizontal component is given by

$v_x=v\cos\theta\\\Rightarrow v_x=3.1\times \cos30^{\circ}\\\Rightarrow v_x=2.68\ \text{m/s}$

The horizontal component of the velocity is $2.68\ \text{m/s}$ .

How does this relate to Newton's second law?

taurus [48]

Answer:

In ideal case, when no resistive forces are present then both the balls will reach the ground simultaneously. This is because acceleration due to gravity is independent of mass of the falling object. i.e. g = GM/R² where G = 6.67×10²³ Nm²/kg², M = mass of earth and R is radius of earth.

Let us assume that both are metallic balls. In such case, we have to take into account the magnetic field of earth (which will give rise to eddy currents, and these eddy currents will be more, if surface area will be more) and viscous drag of air ( viscous drag is proportional to radius of falling ball), then bigger ball will take slightly more time than the smaller ball.
