BaLLatris [955]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

<em>The less mass an object has, the </em><u>less</u><em> its gravitational  [force.]</em>

Explanation:

Newton's Law of Gravity states that F_G=\frac{Gm_1m_2}{r^{2}}. The two <em>m</em> values are the objects' masses, G is the gravitational constant, and <em>r</em> is the distance between the objects' centers. Notice how the mass values are in the fraction's <em>numerator</em>? That means <em>increasing</em> the mass of one or both objects <em>increases</em> F_G. That also implies the inverse; <em>decreasing</em> the mass of one or both objects <em>decreases</em> F_G!

I hope this helps you understand this concept a little more! Have yourself a fantastic day, 'kay?

What is special about nitrogen, and what is its main function in the atmosphere
Vlad [161]
Nitrogen is the most abundant of the gases present in the atmosphere. 78 percent of the atmospheric air comprises of nitrogen, oxygen makes up for 21 percent and all other gases make up for the remaining one percent. Oxygen is a highly flammable gas and in the absence of nitrogen it would not have been possible to utilize this atmospheric oxygen, hence the presence of nitrogen reduces its flammability and also neutralizes the toxicity of other gases.

Suppose you are on an airplane moving at high speed. If you flip a coin straight up it will land in your lap rather than a great
maxonik [38]
It will land in your lap because there's different frames of motion relative to yourself. For example, if you're running at a speed of 6 mph, it doesn't mean you'll run as fast as the Earth spins. Also, since you're on the interior of the plane, any kind of wind or weather on the outside will not affect the coin. A law to back up this claim is Einsteins Special Law of Relativity.

BartSMP [9]

Answer

given,

Echo time = t = 1000 s

speed = ?

v = \dfrac{d}{t}

a) speed of electromagnetic wave

c = \dfrac{d}{t}

wave travels Venus two time

c = \dfrac{2d}{t}

d = \dfrac{ct}{2}

d = \dfrac{3 \times 10^8\times 1000}{2}

d = 1.5 x 10¹¹ m

b) now, echo time

    c = \dfrac{2d}{t}

    t = \dfrac{2d}{c}

    t = \dfrac{2\times 75}{3 \times 10^8}

          t = 5 x 10⁻⁷ s
