What is the equation for calculating an object's gravitational potential energy?
The equation to calculate an object's gravitation potential energy is: PE=MGH where: PE is gravitational potential energy M is the objects mass G is the acceleration due to the gravitational pull of the Earth on its surface ( 9.8 m/s2) H is the height from the location that would give it zero potentional energy (generally the ground)
What is the formula for calculating the mass of the Earth?
if g=9.8m/s, G=6.7*10-11Nm2kg-2,calculate the mass of earth, if the radius of the earth is approximately 64m
When calculating gravitational potential energy you must use?
the distance between the object and the center of the Earth
Why is probability an exact science?
The origin of logic comes from scientific deduction of thought. The only science that is exact, is the science and facts that cannot be known for sure.or at least seen with a physical eye. In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. So the probability of an exact science is... inconceivable.
What is the surface area of the earth and how do you come up with the surface area?
Lets pretend that the Earth is a perfect sphere. Surface area of a sphere = 4(pi)(radius)^2. The radius of earth is 6378.1 km. Plug that into your equation and you'll get your answer.
What is the equation for calculating your weight into kilograms?
Divide your Earth-weight in pounds by 2.205 to find your mass in kilograms.
What is the equation for calculating gravitational potential energy on the Earth?
The equation for calculating gravitational potential energy on Earth is PE = mgh, where PE is the potential energy, m is the mass of the object, g is the acceleration due to gravity (9.81 m/s^2 on Earth), and h is the height of the object above a reference point.
Since there is always an upward-directed pressure gradient force why doesn't the air ruch off into space?
Earth science is GAY so screw this question....Peace
What is the geothermal gradient in the Earth's continental crust?
The geothermal gradient in the Earth's continental crust typically ranges from about 20 to 30°C per kilometer depth. This means the temperature increases by 20-30°C for every kilometer you go deeper into the Earth's continental crust.
Is light earth science?
it is earth science because it is only used on earth making it earth science
Explain the importance of measurement in science?
Example: Calculating the distance the Earth travels around the sun. Imagine the errors that could occur if we added an extra kilometer, or that we didn't know the mass of the Earth. Science is about knowing the truth of the universe, and how it may affect us. Everything has to go by "If you're going to do something, do it right."
What is sentence using the word earth science?
" Earth science is the science about earth, beoch."
Is Astrophysics a life science physical science or earth science?
earth science
The increase in temperature with dept in the earth is called the what gradient?
The increase in temperature with depth in the Earth is called the geothermal gradient. This gradient varies depending on factors such as location and geology, but typically averages around 25-30°C per kilometer depth.
The increase in temperature with depth in the Earth is called the geothermal?
gradient
Is Pluto a part of earth science?
No. Earth science is about Earth.
Is pollution earth science or life science?
Earth Science I believe
