A satellite is a large distance from a planet, and the gravitational force from the planet is the only significant force exerted on the satellite. The satellite begins falling toward the planet, eventually colliding with the surface of the planet. As the satellite falls,
which of the following claims is correct about how the force that the planet exerts on the satellite Fps changes and how the force
that the satellite exerts on the planet Fsp changes, if at all? What reasoning supports this claim?
A
Fps and Fs both increase. The gravitational forces that two objects exert on one another decrease as the
separation between the objects increases, and these forces are always equal in magnitude.
B
Fps increases while Fsp remains constant. The gravitational force exerted by a planet on a satellite decreases
as the separation between the two objects increases, and the force exerted by the satellite on the planet remains
negligibly small.
с
Fps remains constant while Fgp increases. The gravitational force exerted by a planet on a satellite is a constant
equal to the weight of the satellite, and the gravitational force exerted by the satellite on the planet decreases as
the separation between the two objects increases.
D
Fps and Fs both remain constant
. The gravitational forces that a planet and a satellite exert on one another is a
constant equal to the weight of the satellite.

Assume that a person skiing high in the mountains at an altitude of h = 15100 ft takes in the same volume of air with each breath as she does while walking at sea level. determine the ratio of the mass of oxygen inhaled for each breath at this high altitude compared to that at sea level. assume that the air composition (i. e. % of air that is oxygen) is the same at sea level as it is at 15100 ft.

Simon is writing a story about an astronaut whose spacecraft has been boarded by space pirates. the astronaut has her lucky penny in her hand behind her back as the space pirates break into the control room. she has just locked the controls so that the ship is accelerating in the direction of the control room’s ceiling. simon wants the astronaut to use the penny to hit a button on the control panel to turn off the lights and escape. the button is located a short distance behind and below the astronaut’s hands. how should simon use the theory of relativity to describe what the astronaut must do in order to hit the button?

Aballoon is rising vertically upwards at a velocity of 10m/s. when it is at a height of 45m from the ground, a parachute bails out from it. after 3s he opens his parachute and decelerates ata a constant rate 5m/s. when. (a) what was the height of the parachutist above the ground when he opened his parachute? (b)how far is the parachutist from the balloon at t=3s? (c)with what velocity does the parachutist hit the ground? (d)after how long does the parachutist hit the ground after his exist from the balloon?
