Question
Referring to the Newton's law of universal gravitation, if a person has a weight of 700N on earth, how much is his weight, when he is in a
balloon in a high altitude?
A bird sitting on the limb of a tree is moving about 30 km/s with respect to the Sun. If the bird takes 1 second to drop down to a worm
below, the worm would be 30 km downrange from the bird when it reached the ground. This faulty reasoning is best countered with
Newton's
O a.
Bigger than 700 N, as g is proportional by square of distance form center of earth
O a. law of inertia
O b. Smaller than 700 N, as g is inversely proportional by square of distance form the center of earth
O b. law of gravity
O c. The same 700 N, as g is always constant.
Od.
It is zero, as above ground surface, g is zero
O C. none of the above
O d. laws of motion
A man with mass of 80 kg (consider g=10) stands at rest on two bathroom scales (each has 5kg mass) so that his weight is distributed
evenly over both scales. The reading on each scale is:
