Trivia Trivia Trivia!!! 8)
Posted: Sat Aug 30, 2008 7:51 amI know many smart people goes at this site so here are some questions to be answered. No making jokes about the your answer.
1. Why do all freely falling objects have the same acceleration?
2. If you stepped into a hole bored completely through Earth and made no attempt to grab the edges at either end, what kind of motion would you experience?
3. Halfway to the center of the Earth, would gravity pull on you more strongly or less strongly than at the surface of Earth?
4. We know that the moon and the sun produce our ocean tides. And we know the moon plays the greater role because it is closer. Does it closeness mean it pulls with more gravitational force than the sun on Earth’s oceans?
5. Our sun is not massive enough to become a black hole. But if it were, and if it collapsed from its present size to become a black hole, would Earth be drawn into it?
6. There are usually alternate explanations for things. Is the following explanation valid? Satellites remain in orbit instead of falling to Earth because they are beyond the main pull of Earth’s gravity.
7. Satellites in close circular orbit fall about 5 m during each second of orbit. How can this be if the satellite does not get closer to Earth?
8. Does time dilation mean that time really passes more slowly in moving systems or that it only seems to pass more slowly?
9. If you were moving in a spaceship at a high speed relative to Earth, would you notice a difference in you pulse rate? In the pulse rate of the people back on Earth?
10. Will observers A and B agree on measurements of time if A moves at half the speed of light relative to B? If both A and B move together at 0.5c relative to Earth?
11. Here’s a simple arithmetic question: If a spaceship travels foe one hour and emits a flash every 6 min, how many flashes will be emitted?
12. A spaceship sends equally spaced flashes while approaching a receiver at constant speed. Will the flashes equally spaced when they encounter the receiver?
13. World population grows each year. Does this mean the mass of Earth increased each year?

I have just looked at some questions and trying to answer them. They are only guesses so don't blame me for any outcome of the answers.
34. In winter it will give room to constrict i think.
38. hot air rises so the heat is up not sideways maybe.
cbf giving my opinion of anymore >.>

Why do all freely falling objects have the same acceleration?
A. because weight and size doesn’t affect acceleration..i believe that it was tested by a famous scientist on leaning tower of Pisa..I don’t know if he’s Galileo or other guy
2. If you stepped into a hole bored completely through Earth and made no attempt to grab the edges at either end, what kind of motion would you experience?
A. Falling motion
3. Halfway to the center of the Earth, would gravity pull on you more strongly or less strongly than at the surface of Earth?
A. Maybe stronger because earth gravitational pull is weaker if the object is farther from earth just like the satellites that orbits the earth
4. We know that the moon and the sun produce our ocean tides. And we know the moon plays the greater role because it is closer. Does it closeness mean it pulls with more gravitational force than the sun on Earth’s oceans?
A. Yes
5. Our sun is not massive enough to become a black hole. But if it were, and if it collapsed from its present size to become a black hole, would Earth be drawn into it?
A. No because by that time I believe that Earth would have been obliterated before the sun becomes a blackhole since that will take a very long time..but if earth will still exist at that time the answer is yes
6. There are usually alternate explanations for things. Is the following explanation valid? Satellites remain in orbit instead of falling to Earth because they are beyond the main pull of Earth’s gravity.
A. Maybe…
7. Satellites in close circular orbit fall about 5 m during each second of orbit. How can this be if the satellite does not get closer to Earth?
A. because the orbit of satellites are fixed..
8. Does time dilation mean that time really passes more slowly in moving systems or that it only seems to pass more slowly?
A. IIRC the answer is yes..time passes more slowly in moving sysrems..in fact if your travelling at near the speed of light, 1 hour on Earth would be like 30 yours on your journey.. I got this after reading a book that discuss Einstein’s work.
11. Here’s a simple arithmetic question: If a spaceship travels foe one hour and emits a flash every 6 min, how many flashes will be emitted?
A. ten flashes
12. A spaceship sends equally spaced flashes while approaching a receiver at constant speed. Will the flashes equally spaced when they encounter the receiver?
A. Yes
13. World population grows each year. Does this mean the mass of Earth increased each year?
A. maybe yes
15. Which has the greater density- 1 kg of water or 10 kg of water?
A. they are equally dense
17. Which has the greater density- 1 g of uranium or the planet Earth?
A. uranium
35. If you hold apiece of metal bar against a piece of ice, the end in your hand will soon become cold. Does this cold flow from the ice to your hand?
A. the cold flow from the ice to the metal bar to your hand
36. Wood is a better insulator than glass. Yet fiberglass is commonly used to insulate wooden buildings. Why?
A. because wood is flammable?
37. You can stick your hand into a hot pizza oven for several seconds without harm, whereas you’d never the metal inside surfaces fro even a second. Why?
A. because metals are the best conductors of heat
41. Since a hot cup of tea loses heat more rapidly than lukewarm cup of tea. Would it be correct to say that a hot cup of tea will cool to room temperature before a lukewarm cup of tea will?
A. NO
i tried to answer most of it...but i just can't..i'm just 14 yrs old.what can you expect? haha..is this your homework?

1. Why do all freely falling objects have the same acceleration?
free fall neglect air resistance and weight
2. If you stepped into a hole bored completely through Earth and made no attempt to grab the edges at either end, what kind of motion would you experience?
free fall
3. Halfway to the center of the Earth, would gravity pull on you more strongly or less strongly than at the surface of Earth?
stronger, because the distance is shorter (applying the LUG)
4. We know that the moon and the sun produce our ocean tides. And we know the moon plays the greater role because it is closer. Does it closeness mean it pulls with more gravitational force than the sun on Earth’s oceans?
depending on the area of the moon
5. Our sun is not massive enough to become a black hole. But if it were, and if it collapsed from its present size to become a black hole, would Earth be drawn into it?
yes, even light can escape a black hole
6. There are usually alternate explanations for things. Is the following explanation valid? Satellites remain in orbit instead of falling to Earth because they are beyond the main pull of Earth’s gravity.
if they are beyond the pull, then the satellites will not revolve but instead float in space
7. Satellites in close circular orbit fall about 5 m during each second of orbit. How can this be if the satellite does not get closer to Earth?
dunno
8. Does time dilation mean that time really passes more slowly in moving systems or that it only seems to pass more slowly?
dunno

metals are good heat conductors
38. You can hold your fingers beside the candle flame without harm but not above the flame. Why?
most heat goes upward
39. If a god absorber of radiant energy were a poor emitter, how would its temperature compare with its surroundings?
hotter
40. Is it more efficient to paint a heating radiator black or silver?
