Answer:
Period refers to the time for something to happen and is measured in seconds/cycle
It is actually caused by the environment, so its false. :)
The gravitational force <em>F</em> between two masses <em>M</em> and <em>m</em> a distance <em>r</em> apart is
<em>F</em> = <em>G M m</em> / <em>r</em> ²
Decrease the distance by a factor of 7 by replacing <em>r</em> with <em>r</em> / 7, and decrease both masses by a factor of 8 by replacing <em>M</em> and <em>m</em> with <em>M</em> / 8 and <em>m</em> / 8, respectively. Then the new force <em>F*</em> is
<em>F*</em> = <em>G </em>(<em>M</em> / 8) (<em>m</em> / 8) / (<em>r</em> / 7)²
<em>F*</em> = (1/64 × <em>G M m</em>) / (1/49 × <em>r</em> ²)
<em>F*</em> = 49/64 × <em>G M m</em> / <em>r</em> ²
In other words, the new force is scaled down by a factor of 49/64 ≈ 0.7656, so the new force has magnitude approx. 76.56 N.
If Juan used a Celsius thermometer, it would tell him the Celsius temperature.
If he added 273 to that number, he'd have the "absolute" or Kelvin temperature.
