The Earth's Radius is 6.3710x106 m and mass is 5.9742x1024 kg. What is the acceleration due to gravity at Mount Everest (elevati

on=8,848.86m)

Answer is

9.773m/s^2

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Given,

h=8848m

The value of sea level is 9.08m/s^2. So, Let g′ be the acceleration due to the gravity on Mount Everest.

g′=g(1 − 2h/h)

=9.8(1 - 6400000/17696)

=9.8(1 − 0.00276)

9.8×0.99724

=9.773m/s^2

Thus, the acceleration due to gravity on the top of Mount Everest is =9.773m/s^2

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

hope this helps :)

Two objects gravitationally attract with a force of 100 N. If the mass of one object is doubled and the mass of the other object
barxatty [35]

Hello!

Recall the equation for gravitational force:
F_g = \frac{Gm_1m_2}{r^2}

Fg = Force of gravity (N)
G = Gravitational constant

m1, m2 = masses of objects (kg)
r = distance between the objects' center of masses (m)

There is a DIRECT relationship between mass and gravitational force.

We are given:
F_g = 100N

If we were to double one mass and triple another, according to the equation:
F'_g = \frac{G(2m_1)(3m_2)}{r^2} = 6(\frac{G(m_1)(m_2)}{r^2}) = 6F_g

Thus:
6 * F_g = 6 * 100 = \boxed{600N}

______ involves organizing and breaking down information into easier groups to expand capacity. Rehearsal is the verbal repetiti
adell [148]

Hi!


The answers would be <u>chunking</u> & <u>short-term</u>


1. <u>Chunking </u>involves organizing and breaking down information into easier groups to expand capacity.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Chunking is a mental process that is observed to increase short-term memory by taking the information and categorizing it into small groups. For instance, a longer number taken as a single unit is harder to recall then when it is divided into smaller units. 235469350 is harder to instantly recall as compared to when it is chunked into 3 groups: 235 469 350.

This allows more information to be stored in, thereby increasing the capacity of the mind to store information.


2. Rehearsal is the verbal repetition of information. These techniques are especially important for the improvement of <u>short-term</u> memory.

<h3>Explanation: </h3>

Short-term memory is lost after a couple of seconds or minutes, for instance even if you chunk the information, you might not recall it after 30 seconds. Rehearsing or repetition of information, either loudly or mentally, extends the time a particular information is retained.

So you depending on the number of times you repeat the number 235 469 350, the more your short term memory improves .


Hope this helps!

A rope vibrates every 0.5 s. What is the frequency of the waves? 5 Hz 2 Hz 0.5 Hz 1 Hz
yulyashka [42]
The answer is 2Hz

Using the formula f= 1/T we can plug in .5 for T and solve for frequency.

Compare mass and weight
netineya [11]

Answer:

The mass of an object is a measure of the object's inertial property, or the amount of matter it contains. The weight of an object is a measure of the force exerted on the object by gravity, or the force needed to support it. The pull of gravity on the earth gives an object a downward acceleration of about 9.8 m/s2.

Can someone explain to me how to answer this problem in simple ways? (I get really confused when it comes to math) A communicati
pishuonlain [190]
When I find a problem like this, I find it helpful to think about what I know and what equation will help me.

The question tells us the frequency of the wave (5 \times 10^{-9}) Hz. We want to work out the wavelength. What equation links these two quantities?

Wave Speed = Frequency x Wavelength
(we know all electromagnetic waves travel at the speed of light in a vacuum)

(3 \times 10^8) = (5 \times 10^{-9}) \times \lambda
and then divide by (5 \times 10^{-9}) to get the wavelength.

Wavelength = 6 \times 10^{16} m<u />
