Gravity Flashcards
Newtons interest in mechanics was rekindled with the advent of a spectacular what in 1680
Comet
Isaac Newton determined that gravity was
universal
Everything polls on everything else and a beautifully simple way that involves only what and what
Mass and distance
The universal gravitational consistent can be expressed by what equation
F = g (M1 and M2) / (D squared)
The magnitude of G is the same as the gravitational force between 21 kg masses that are 1 m part which is what numerical value in newtons
6.67 * 10^-11 N
Calculating G alone was first done by the what English physicist in 1798
Henry Cavendish
Philip Von jolly attached a spherical flask of what to abounds to also demonstrate the gravitational force between two objects
Mercury
Phenomena where in the effects of gravity from a local resource spreads uniformly throughout the surrounding space is termed as
Inverse square law
What is the weakest of all forces
Gravity
The force of gravity like any force can produce what
Acceleration
The pressing against earth is a sensation we interpret as what
Weight
Ocean tides are caused by the what in the gravitational pole between the moon and earth on opposite sides of the earth
Differences
What tides occur at the time of a new or full moon
Spring
Tides that occur when the moon is midway between new and full in either direction are what tides
Neap
Higher than average tides and lower than average low tides occur because the what what and what are aligned (3)
Sun earth and moon
