<span>The correct option is C. Gravity, and the complete sentence is: "The force of gravity is the force at which the Earth attracts another object towards itself". In fact, the force of gravity between two objects is given by
</span>
<span>
where G is the gravitational constant, m1 and m2 the masses of the two objects, r their separation. If we take the Earth as one of the two objects, then m1 represents the Earth's mass, m2 the mass of the object and r the distance between the center of Earth and the object, and F is the gravitational force at which the Earth attracts the object.</span>

Answer:
Same direction: t=234s; d=6.175Km
Opposite direction: t=27.53s; d=0.73Km
Explanation:
If the automobile and the train are traveling in the same direction, then the automobile speed relative to the train will be (<em>the train must see the car advancing at a lower speed</em>), where
is the speed of the automobile and
the speed of the train.
So we have .
So the train (<em>anyone in fact</em>) will watch the automobile trying to cover the lenght of the train L at that relative speed. The time required to do this will be:
And in that time the car would have traveled (<em>relative to the ground</em>):
If they are traveling in opposite directions, <u>we have to do all the same</u> but using (<em>the train must see the car advancing at a faster speed</em>), so repeating the process:
