Answer:
If there is a net force acting on an object, the object will have an acceleration and the object's velocity will change. ... Newton's second law states that for a particular force, the acceleration of an object is proportional to the net force and inversely proportional to the mass of the object.
Explanation:
If the distance around the equator is reduced by half, then the radius is also reduced by half.
Since the acceleration due to gravity is proportional to 1/(radius²),
the acceleration changes by a factor of 1/(1/2)² = 1/(1/4) = <em>4 </em>.
The acceleration due to gravity ... and also the weight of everything on Earth ...
becomes <em>4 times what it is now</em>.
King Arthur's knights use a catapult to launch a rock from their vantage point on top of the castle wall, 14 m above the moat. The rock is launched at a speed of 27 m/s and an angle of 32degrees above the horizontal.
Differences in land elevation result in rainfall runoff, and allow some of the original solar energy to be captured as hydro-electric power (Figure 1). Hydro power is currently the world's largest renewable source of electricity, accounting for 6% of worldwide energy supply or about 15% of the world's electricity.

1 astronomical unit 1 AU = 1.4960 * 10^11 meters
it is the average distance between earth and sun
mercury to sun distance is = 46,000,000 * 1000 meters
= 4.6 * 10^9 meters = 4.6 * 10^9 / 1.4960 * 10^11 AU
= 3.0.74 / 100 = 0.0374 AU
