The weight of the bulb, acting downward, and the tension in the cord, acting

upward, must be equal, so that the net force on the bulb is zero. If not, then

the bulb is accelerating in the direction of the net force. If it's just hanging there

and not accelerating up or down, then the two forces must be equal, and add up

to zero.

What does change gravity 30 times in a single run mean in Jetpack Joyride?

In order to do this, you must wear the Gravity Suit. While bein in the suit, in order for you to use it, you change gravity by simply tapping the screen. Do this 30 times, and you completed the acheivement.


What is electromagnetic gravity?

Electromagnetic gravity is a theoretical concept that attempts to unify the forces of electromagnetism and gravity into a single theoretical framework. It posits that gravity could emerge from the interactions of electromagnetic fields in a particular way, although this idea has not been conclusively proven or widely accepted in the scientific community.


What are Applications of center of gravity?

Center of gravity is the point where whole weight of the body appears to be acting.......it is actually the point where the body balance itself.......if u draw diagonals lines through the object then these all passes through the single point and that point is simply center of gravity.......................its application is in the fact that enables us to be on ground..............


What are the examples in which centre of gravity lies outside the object?

A centre of gravity is outside a single body where that body is shapde in such a manner as to cause that. For example, the COG of a horseshoe is not inside the horseshoe metal, but in the middle between the two sides of it, because the mass on either side of that point balances around it. A bar stool has a COG outside itself, since the same effect applies.


What happens when the only force acting on an object is gravity?

When the only force acting on an object is gravity, the object will accelerate downward at a rate of approximately 9.8 m/s^2 on Earth. This acceleration is independent of the mass of the object, as described by the acceleration due to gravity.
