It increases confidence because the more times you conduct the same experiment over and over should either prove your hypothesis right and wrong and eliminate any random occurrences that might affect your results.
Answer:
The astronaut can throw the hammer in a direction away from the space station. While he is holding the hammer, the total momentum of the astronaut and hammer is 0 kg • m/s. According to the law of conservation of momentum, the total momentum after he throws the hammer must still be 0 kg • m/s. In order for momentum to be conserved, the astronaut will have to move in the opposite direction of the hammer, which will be toward the space station.
Explanation:
Answer:
R_cm = 4.66 10⁶ m
Explanation:
The important concept of mass center defined by
R_cm = 1 / M ∑ x_i m_i
where M is the total mass, x_i and m_i are the position and masses of each body
Let's apply this expression to our case.
Let's set a reference frame where the axis points from the center of the Earth to the Moon,
R_cm = 1 / M (m_earth 0 + m_moon d)
the total mass is
M = m_earth + m_moon
the distance from the Earth is zero because all mass can be considered to be at its gravimetric center
let's calculate
M = 5.98 10²⁴ + 7.35 10²²
M = 6.0535 10₂⁴24 kg
we substitute
R_cm = 1 / 6.0535 10²⁴ (0 + 7.35 10²² 3.84 )
R_cm = 4.66 10⁶ m
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= 
Neither set of choices is correct.
If the distance is tripled, then the forces decrease to
1/9 Fg. and. 1/9 Fe.
Note. When the objects are charged, the gravitational force Fg can almost always be ignored, since Fe is like 10^40 greater when the quantities of mass and charge are similar.
