What is the motion of body when only the force of gravity is acting on it?
Free falling.
The motion of a body when only force of gravity is acting on the body?
zero velocity =)
How does motion in a vertical circle differ from that in a horizontal circle?
During motion in a vertical circle, the force of gravity (weight of the object) is in the same direction as the motion for half the time and in the opposite direction for the rest.For a body moving in a horizontal circle, gravity is acting orthogonally to the motion at all times.During motion in a vertical circle, the force of gravity (weight of the object) is in the same direction as the motion for half the time and in the opposite direction for the rest.For a body moving in a horizontal circle, gravity is acting orthogonally to the motion at all times.During motion in a vertical circle, the force of gravity (weight of the object) is in the same direction as the motion for half the time and in the opposite direction for the rest.For a body moving in a horizontal circle, gravity is acting orthogonally to the motion at all times.During motion in a vertical circle, the force of gravity (weight of the object) is in the same direction as the motion for half the time and in the opposite direction for the rest.For a body moving in a horizontal circle, gravity is acting orthogonally to the motion at all times.
What are the effects of force in motion?
A force acting on a body accelerates it in the direction of the force.
What is force acting on a body with uniform motion?
A body in uniform motion has no net force acting on it. That means that either there are no forces at all, or else that all the forces acting on it add up to zero.
What is the effect of gravity on velocity?
Gravity is a force and any force acting on a body changes its velocity in the direction of the force.
What is the motion of a body when only the force of garvity is acting on the body?
Free Fall
Is there force in space?
No; gravity will continue acting on your body. If there was no force acting on your body while in space (let's say an orbiting satellite), the satellite would fly out of Earth's orbit and just wander off forever, but that doesn't happen - so gravity has to be acting on the satellite and your body as well!
What is the mass of an object if the force of gravity acting on its mass is 1033 Newtons?
If we have a force acting on a body and we know what that force is, and we also know that the force is gravity, we can solve because we know the force gravity exerts on a mass. If we take the total force acting on the body and divide it by the force of gravity per one unit of mass, we can find the number of units of mass that cause gravity to act on the object. We have 1033 Newtons of force acting on the object. Gravity pulls down with a force of 9.8 Newtons on 1 kilogram of mass. Our 1033 Newtons divided by 9.8 Newtons per kilogram = 105.41 kilograms
Why do we experience weightlessness in space?
Because there are no contact forces acting on us. Gravity is the only acting on us. A body experiences weightlessness when gravity is the only force acting on it.
Define law of transmissibility of forces?
"The condition of equilibrium or motion of a rigid body is remain unchanged, if a force acting on the rigid body is replaced by another force of the same magnitude and same direction but, acting anywhere along the same line of action."
What causes an object to change speed of the direction of motion?
A force acting on the body, along its line of motion.
