Question
Chapter 1, Problem 36A
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The weight of the same body in two different locations that is the city of Denver that is 1.7 km above the sea level and in New Orleans, a city at sea level needs to be compared.
Concept introduction:
Weight is different from mass thus, the gravitational pull of earth effects weight.
Expert Solution & Answer
Answer to Problem 36A
The weight of the body would be less in Denver that is 1.7 km above the sea level than the weight in New Orleans, a city at sea level.
Explanation of Solution
Weight of the same body in two different locations is different. The weight of the body would be less in Denver that is 1.7 km above the sea level than the weight in New Orleans, a city at sea level due less gravitational forces in Denver than in New Orleans. On moving from lower area to higher, the gravitational force decreases.
Conclusion
Thus, the weight of the same body in Denver is less than that in New Orleans.
