What else can I help you with?
Suppose velocity is measured kmhr and time is measured in hourswhat is that unit of acceleration?
If velocity is km/hr and time is in hours then acceleration will be in km/hr2
What units are used to represent acceleration?
Velocity (acceleration x time = velocity).
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
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
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
How can acceleration be measured?
Acceleration can be measured using an accelerometer.
What is measured by Richter scale?
A Richter scale measures the movement of the earths surface which happens during an earthquake.
What would you use to measure acceleration?
Acceleration is measured using an instrument called an ACCELEROMETER The simplest home-made accelerometer is a liquid-surface accelerometer, with water in a transparent liquid container with boxy sides. The slope of the liquid surface is a measurement of acceleration.
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.
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
What is the acceleration due to gravity 9000000 meters away from the center of the earth?
If you have a known rate of acceleration and radius (such as at the earths surface), you can use the following equation to calculate the acceleration at another radius.a = k / ((d / r)^2)key:a = new acceleration rate ((m/s)/s)d = new radius (metres)k = known acceleration rate ((m/s)/s)r = known radius (metres)so if:d = 9 000 000 metresk = 9.82 (m/s)/s (acceleration at earths surface)r = 6 371 000 metres (radius at earths surface)then:a = 4.92 (m/s)/s
What is earths gravitational acceleration?
Standing at surface radius its = 9.82 (m/s)/sbut double the radius and the acceleration drops to 9.82 / ((2 / 1)2) = 2.455 (m/s)/s
Why does the acceleration of gravity vary from one point to another on the earths surface?
Different air pressure, so there is more/less air resistance.
Seismic shaking is a msasure of?
Seismic waves are the vibrations from earthquakes that travel through the earths surface and is measured bye the shaking you feel.
