How would the acceleration of gravity near earths surface change?
In general, when near the Earth's surface, scientists use 9.8 meters per seond^2 since the slight difference in elevation along the Earth's surface doesn't affect the acceleration very much. But if you want the exact formula it is: (G(msub1)(msub2))/radius^2. msub1 and msub2 are the masses of the two objects, and G is 6.67x10^(-11), the gravitational constant.
Most minerals on earths surface contain which of the following?
silicon & oxygen.
What percent of the earths surface does the Atlantic ocean?
i believe roughly 70% (not completely sure though) I'm not really sure, but something like 70% of the earths surface..
What process did James Hutton propose replenishes the rock on Earths surface?
Uplift
A reference point for determining position and motion could be?
The earths surface, a building, and a moving object
What occurs when objects free fall near the Earths surface constant acceleration?
When objects free fall near Earth's surface, they experience constant acceleration due to gravity. This means that the objects increase their velocity by the same amount each second while falling. The acceleration due to gravity near Earth's surface is approximately 9.8 m/s^2.
What occurs when the objects free falls near earths surfaces?
Constant acceleration
What is the gravitational force on any object near the earths surface?
Force (newtons) = mass (kg) * acceleration (m/s/s) > Acceleration at earths surface radius = 9.82 m/s/s
Why free fall acceleration can be regarded as a constant for objects falling within a few hundred miles of earths surface?
Free fall acceleration can be considered constant near Earth's surface because the gravitational force acting on an object is primarily determined by the mass of the Earth and the distance from its center. Within a few hundred miles of Earth's surface, these factors do not vary significantly, resulting in a consistent acceleration due to gravity of approximately 9.81 m/s^2. Therefore, objects in free fall experience a nearly constant acceleration regardless of their mass or size.
What is The constant recycling of water from the earths surface?
the water cycle
What is the acceleration of an object in free fall at Earths surface?
The acceleration of an object in free fall at Earth's surface is approximately 9.8 m/s^2, which is due to the force of gravity. This acceleration is constant regardless of the mass of the object, as long as air resistance is negligible.
How is it that acceleration due to gravity is EXACTLY thirty-two feet per second squared?
That it is exactly 32f/sec^2 not sure. That it is constant depends on the Earths' mass which is fairly constant.
Where do you experience more gravity on earths surface or earths center?
on the surfaceNote:Since the earth's composition is not homogeneous, the gravitational acceleration onthe surface is probably less than what it is some small distance below the surface,but it's certainly greater than at the center.
Explain why the gravitational acceleration of any object near the Earth is the same no matter what the mass of the object is?
Strictly speaking its not the same . This equation calculates the acceleration: acceleration = ( G * ( m1 + m2 ) ) / d2 where: G = newtons gravity constant m1 = earths mass (kg) m2 = objects mass (kg) d = distance between centres of gravity (metres) The earths mass is so large however, only a significantly large object mass would make a real difference to the acceleration.
At what height above the earths surface would the value of acceleration due to gravity half of what it is on the surface of the earth?
The acceleration due to gravity decreases with height above the Earth's surface according to the inverse square law. Therefore, at a height of approximately 3186 km above the Earth's surface, the acceleration due to gravity would be half of what it is on the surface. This is known as the point of geosynchronous orbit.
What is the compare of the earth and the moon in terms of size and surface gravity?
earth is 81.3 times the mass of the moon . acceleration due to gravity at earths surface = 9.82 (m/s)/s acceleration due to gravity at moons surface = 1.62 (m/s)/s . 1 kg at earths surface, force = 1 * 9.82 = 9.82 newtons 1 kg at moons surface, force = 1 * 1.62 = 1.62 newtons
Why is acceleration due to gravity the same for all objets?
because all are measured at the same radius from the earths cog, if you doubled this distance, the acceleration would be only one quarter that of the surface
