Gravity In physics, it is established that the acceleration due to gravity, g ( i n m e t e r s / s e c 2 ) , at a height h meters above the sea level is given by g ( h ) = 3.99 × 10 14 ( 6.374 × 10 6 + h ) 2 where 6.374 × 10 6 is the radius of Earth in meters. What is the acceleration due to gravity at sea level? The Wills Tower in Chicago, Illinois, is 443 meters tall. What is the acceleration due to gravity at the top of the Wills Tower? The peak of Mount Everest is 8848 meters above sea level. What is the acceleration due to gravity on the peak of Mount Everest? Find the end behavior of g . That is, find lim h → ∞ g ( h ) . What does the result suggest? Solve g ( h ) = 0. How do you interpret your answer?

Find the (exact) direction cosines and (rounded to 1 decimal place) direction angles of = (3,7,6)
Let a = (-1, -2, -3) and 6 = (-4, 0, 1).
Find the component of b onto a.
Forces of 9 pounds and 15 pounds act on each other with an angle of 72°.
The magnitude of the resultant force
The resultant force has an angle of
pounds.
* with the 9 pound force.
The resultant force has an angle of
with the 15 pound force.
It is best to calculate each angle separately and check by seeing if they add to 72°.
