Gravitational pull provides weight to each object. This pull is from the center of the earth which is 6378 km from the surface. To decrease your weight by half, one needs to travel another 2641.9 km from the surface.
The mass of an object at any point will remain the same( unless its velocity approaches that of light, of course )So, for the weight to reduce to half its value, the acceleration due to gravity has to reduce to half its value on earth.
now, the relation between acceleration due to gravity and distance from the center of the earth is given by
g = 1/R2
where R is the radius of the earth which is 6400 kms (approx)
let 'h' be the height at which the weight of the rocket will be half its initial value.
so, gh / g = R2 / (R+h)2
but gh = g/ 2
substituting it in the above expression yields h=2649.6 kms (approx)
so, at this height, the weight of the rocket will be half its initial weight.
Because of the inverse-square law, you would have to be at a distance, from Earth's center, that is square root of 2 (about 1.414) times the distance you would be on the surface. So, 1.414 - 1 = 0.414 times Earth's radius from the SURFACE.
For a g/2 (half gravity) effect on an object, a ball park figure is that it would have to be about 2500 km or about 1550 miles up.
[ sqrt(2) - 1 ] Earth radius = 1,640 miles (rounded) above the surface.
The mass will remain the same, but the weight will be one sixth of what it was on earth, since weight depends on the local force of gravity. The moons gravity is one sixth of the earths.
The "500 - n" you mention is either the woman's name or her weight. If it's her weight, then that is in fact the size of the mutual gravitational forces between her and the Earth. It's her weight on Earth, and it's Earth's weight on her.
because rocket need les weight
Gravity
No. There is less gravity on the moon, therefore the rocket would feel less of a pull towards it than the earth. It would be easier to leave the moon than the earth.
The weight of the air on the earth is called... Air Pressure
The weight of any object on the surface of the moon is 16.55% of its weight on the surface of the Earth.
No, your weight is just the acceleration due to the Earth's gravity,
Weight = mass x g ... the gravitational acceleration at the earth's surface. Fwt = mg = 3.5 x 9.8 = 34.3 n
The mass will remain the same, but the weight will be one sixth of what it was on earth, since weight depends on the local force of gravity. The moons gravity is one sixth of the earths.
due to volcanics effects and movement of earth which affect the earth surface
The wave that can travel through earth and along earths surface is a SEISMIC wave.
Weathering and erosion shape earths surface by changing earths surface by having extreme forces that change earth.
The edge of the earth is the earth's crust.
The "500 - n" you mention is either the woman's name or her weight. If it's her weight, then that is in fact the size of the mutual gravitational forces between her and the Earth. It's her weight on Earth, and it's Earth's weight on her.
The tectonic plates below earths surface shape earths landforms
