Answer:
As we keep on increasing the radius the value of the gravitation force of attraction decreases and as we decrease the radius the gravitation force increases.
Explanation:
Like the coulombs law of electrostatics, the law of gravitation also depends inversely on the square of the value of r. Therefore, as we keep on increasing the value of r the value of the gravitation force decreases and as we decrease the value of the r the value of gravitation force increases.
Gravitation Force=
Coulombs's Law= 
I'm guessing that this is a problem to find the weight of a 90kg mass on a planet where the acceleration of gravity is 4 m/s^2. (Much less gravity than Earth, a little more than Mars.)
Just do the multiplication, and you get
360 Newtons.
Answer:
First law of thermodynamic state that energy is always conserved, in other word, energy cannot be created or destroyed.
This means that energy can only transfer from one source to another.
For example, the electricity we used to power our phone didn't come from nowhere.
We charge our phone using the energy from the electricity from the outlet.
The outlet gets its energy from the power plant, who generated that energy from burning coal.
The coal they burned got their energy while they were alive as plants.
The plants got their energy from the sun.
The sun got its energy from other cosmic stuff and so on...
My point is that the energy we use will always cycle around. It doesn't come from thin air and it doesn't disappear into thin air either. This help keeps things balance because if energy is created out of thin air then the earth might just blow up. If energy gets erased into thin air then there'll be nothing to fuel life.
Answer:
(b) Yes, the earth gains momentum but the change in momentum of the earth is much lesser compared to that of everyone in the air. The resistance to motion (inertia of the earth), which is a function of its mass is so great that the earth's acceleration is small in the given time frame.
Explanation:
From Newton's second law which can be stated mathematically as
F = m(v-u)/t = ma.
By Newton's law of gravitation, there is a force between the earth and everyone in the air. This force is responsible for the change in momentum of everyone in the air and this force gives them an acceleration equal to g = 9.80m/s². By Newton's law of gravitation and Newton's third law of motion, this force is also equal to the force exerted by everyone on the earth.
For this to be true,
F = M (everyone) ×a (everyone) = M(earth) × a (earth).
And
a (earth) = {M (everyone) ×a (everyone) }/M (earth)
Then
a (earth) must be lesser than a (everyone) since M(earth) >> M(everyone).
a = change in momentum/ time
Therefore the earth will have a much lesser change in momentum which is the reason we won't notice the earth's movement.
