As accurately described by Einstein's theory of relativity, gravity is not necessarily a force, but a consequence of the curvature of space time that is caused by the uneven distribution of mass. But this could also be approximated by Newton's Law of Universal Motion. Gravity is a force acting upon two objects with masses at a certain amount of distance. So, the greater the mass, and the closer the objects are, the greater is the force of gravity. So, if you compare the gravity on Mars compared to Earth at a given distance, compare their masses. The mass of Earth is 5.972 × 10^24 kg while that of Mars is <span>6.39 × 10^23 kg. So, the gravity on Earth is much greater because Earth is heavier.

For the second question, let's base on Newton's Second Law of Motion which states: the force exerted on or by the object, is equal to its mass times acceleration. In equation, F = ma. So, if you want to increase acceleration, the force should be greater, while the mass should be lighter.</span>

A coin 15.0 mm in diameter is placed 15.0 cm from a spherical mirror. The coin's image is 5.0 mm in diameter and is erect. Is th
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

15 cm

Explanation:

h_{o} = Diameter of the coin = 15 mm

h_{i} = Diameter of the image of coin =  5 mm

d_{o} = distance of the coin from mirror = 15 cm

d_{i} = distance of the image of coin from mirror = ?

Using the equation

\frac{d_{i}}{d_{o}} = \frac{- h_{i}}{h_{o}}

\frac{d_{i}}{15} = \frac{- (5)}{15}

d_{i} = - 5 cm

R = radius of curvature

Using the mirror equation

\frac{1}{d_{o}} + \frac{1}{d_{i}} = \frac{2}{R}

\frac{1}{15} + \frac{1}{- 5} = \frac{2}{R}

R = - 15 cm

A small block with a mass of 0.120 kg is attached to a cord passing through a hole in a frictionless, horizontal surface (Fig. 6
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

a) 0.147 N

b) 9.408 N

c) 9.261 N

Explanation:

The tension on the cord is the only force keeping the block in circular motion, thus representing the entirety of its centripetal force \frac{mv^{2} }{r}. Plugging in values for initial and final states and we get answers for a and b. The work done by the person causes the centripetal force to increase, and thus is the difference between the final tension and the initial tension.
