What two properties of a planet affect the gravity we feel on its surface? - Answer- Mass and radius Two planets have the same radius. If Planet A is 5 times more mass than Planet B, how does gravity differ on the surfaces of the two planets? - Answer- Gravity is 5 times stronger on planet A Say that there were a planet X in our Solar System with a mass 1/4 the mass of Earth and a radius 1/2 the radius of Earth. How will the gravity on its surface compare to the surface gravity of Earth? -...

Atmospheric refraction Lot 22 was conveyed in a subdivision on June 7, 1979 and Lot 23 was sold to the same person on June 8, 1979 - correct answer Lots 22 and 23 have equal rights within a recorded subdivision In Global Positioning System GPS survey procedures which is the most important measurement? - correct answer Antenna height The specificatio...

How high are you jumping at twice Earth's mass compared to Earth's mass? - Half as high Since the jump height is half as high what does that tell us about gravity? - Twice as much. (More gravity = lower jump height) Now we can change the mass to 0.5M. If we do, how much higher are you jumping than at one Earth mass? - Twice as high Now we can change the mass to 0.25M. If we do, how much higher are you jumping? - Four times as high As the mass of the planet increases, the jump height ___...

Magnetism - Answer Magnetism describes the property of attraction due to a magnetic field which is caused by electrically charged particles. A magnet has two poles referred to as the North and South poles. Opposite poles are attracted to each other and like poles will push away from each other. Rocks and Minerals - Answer Igneous Magma cools and hardens Granite Sedimentary Bits of sediment (small rocks, sand, fossils, shells, etc.) are compressed into layered rock over time Sandstone ...
