By definition, acceleration is the change in velocity per change of time. As time passes by, the time increases in value. So, when the acceleration is decreasing while the time is increasing, then that means that the change of velocity is also decreasing with time. So, optimally, the initial velocity and the velocity at any time are very relatively close to each other,
The distance an object falls from rest through gravity is
D = (1/2) (g) (t²)
Distance = (1/2 acceleration of gravity) x (square of the falling time)
We want to see how the time will be affected
if ' D ' doesn't change but ' g ' does.
So I'm going to start by rearranging the equation
to solve for ' t '. D = (1/2) (g) (t²)
Multiply each side by 2 : 2 D = g t²
Divide each side by ' g ' : 2 D/g = t²
Square root each side: t = √ (2D/g)
Looking at the equation now, we can see what happens to ' t ' when only ' g ' changes:
-- ' g ' is in the denominator; so bigger 'g' ==> shorter 't'
and smaller 'g' ==> longer 't' .--
They don't change by the same factor, because 1/g is inside the square root. So 't' changes the same amount as √1/g does.
Gravity on the surface of the moon is roughly 1/6 the value of gravity on the surface of the Earth.
So we expect ' t ' to increase by √6 = 2.45 times.
It would take the same bottle (2.45 x 4.95) = 12.12 seconds to roll off the same window sill and fall 120 meters down to the surface of the Moon.
Answer:
Explanation:
= Mass of the Earth = 5.972 × 10²⁴ kg
G = Gravitational constant = 6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ m³/kgs²
r = Radius of Earth = 6371000 m
m = Mass of person
The force on the person will balance the gravitational force
The acceleration that the Earth will feel is
Answer:
Burning. When you burn something, it turns into ash you can't make that thing turn into what it was before.
A. 1/9
Explanation:
The gravitational force between two objects is given by
where
G is the gravitational constant
m1 and m2 are the two masses
r is the distance between the two masses
From the formula, we see that the magnitude of the force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance: therefore, if the distance is tripled (increased by a factor 3), the magnitude of the force changes by a factor
