Apply: Suppose an elephant has a mass of 1,800 kg and a person has a mass of 75 kg. If the strength of gravitational force on the person was 735 N, what would be the gravitational force on the elephant? Assume both the person and elephant are on Earth's surface.) I Since force and mass are proportional, set this up as a proportion/ratio. (mass of elephant) (mass of human) (force on elephant) (force on human) %3D Show your work (to insert math notation, go to the Toolbar and click on Insert - Equation): Answer:
The gravitational constant g is 9.807 m/s² at sea level, but it decreases as you go up in elevation. A useful equation for this decrease in g is g = a - bz, where z is the elevation above sea level, a = 9.807 m/s², and b = 3.32 × 10−6 1/s². An astronaut "weighs” 80.0 kg at sea level. [Technically this means that his/her mass is 80.0 kg.] Calculate this person's weight in N while floating around in the International Space Station (z = 355 km). If the Space Station were to suddenly stop in its orbit, what gravitational acceleration would the astronaut feel immediately after the satellite stopped moving? The person's weight in N while floating around in the International Space Station is The astronaut feels a gravitational acceleration of 692.928 m/s² 8.6616 N.

Assume the data collected were as follows: (where the force in Newtons is computed by converting the mass to kilograms and then multiplying by the gravitational acceleration 9.8 m/s²) m (grams) Force (Newtons) x (cm) (measured) (computed) (measured) 1000 9.8 1 2000 19.6 1.5 3000 29.4 2.1 4000 39.2 2.4 5000 49 3 Make a plot of force vs. stretch distance x. This means force should be on the vertical axis. Since Fgravity = -Fspring (they are in opposite directions) and Fspring = -kx, then: Fgravity = kx This means the slope of your graph is the spring constant k. Fill in your value for k (measured in Newtons/cm)
Express, in percent, the difference in gravitational force when an object is located at sea level (1m) vs located at a height of 4713m. Use mEarth as a a representation of the mass of the earth on your solution. The gravitational constant is 6.67x10^(-11). The percentage of course should not exceed 100%. Write in proper scientific notation.

Many people mistakenly believe that the astronauts that orbit Earth are “above gravity.” Calculate g for space shuttle territory, 200 km above Earth’s surface. Earth’s mass is 6.0 × 1024 kg, and its radius is 6.38 × 106 m (6380 km). Your answer is what percentage of 10 m/s2?
