Her weight doesn't change but thats only simply because there is no gravity in space.

Which interaction does not take place due to field forces?
amid [387]

The interaction that does not take place due to field forces is the interaction between a pen and paper while you write.

<h3>What is the gravity law?</h3>

Gravity law is a well-established scientific theory that states objects can attract each other according to their masses.

This theory (gravity law) was developed by Sir Isaac Newton to explain the movement of objects.

In conclusion, the interaction that does not take place due to field forces is the interaction between a pen and paper while you write.

Three rocks, each of varying mass and volume, are released from a window at the same time. The window is at height h above the g
krek1111 [17]

Under the assumption that the three rocks are dropped from the same height, they will hit the ground at the same speed. The gravity of Earth is virtually the same for any object that is small compared to the size of the Earth. The acceleration will change with the distance from the Earth, but this change is so small for the range of heights we work with (consider the range of heights from sea level to the tip of Mount Everest) that we can take the average value and assume it to be constant. This constant value of acceleration due to Earth's gravity is 9.80665m/s²


Because the objects fall under the same constant acceleration, they will hit the ground at the same speed.

Can any kind soul help me​
Wittaler [7]

Answer:

2917.4 m/s

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were:

Gravitational acceleration of the Moon (g) = 0.25 times the gravitational acceleration of the earth

Radius (r) of the Moon = 1737 Km

Escape velocity (v) =?

Next, we shall determine the gravitational acceleration of the Moon. This can be obtained as follow:

Gravitational acceleration of the earth = 9.8 m/s²

Gravitational acceleration of the Moon (g) = 0.25 times the gravitational acceleration of the earth

= 0.25 × 9.8 = 2.45 m/s²

Next, we shall convert 1737 Km to metres (m). This can be obtained as follow:

1 Km = 1000 m

Therefore,

1737 Km = 1737 Km × 1000 m / 1 Km

1737 Km = 1737000 m

Thus, 1737 Km is equivalent to 1737000 m

Finally, we shall determine the escape velocity of the rocket as shown below:

Gravitational acceleration of the Moon (g) = 2.45 m/s²

Radius (r) of the moon = 1737000 m

Escape velocity (v) =?

v = √2gr

v = √(2 × 2.45 × 1737000)

v = √8511300

v = 2917.4 m/s

Thus, the escape velocity is 2917.4 m/s
