    Undergrad How would Fg vs. r look on a graphical diagram?Fg on y-axis, r on

    a) linearly to radius. - for the second part question, in the equation r = re + h , how do u get the height of the everest

    The relationship - The greater the radius, the lesser the gravitation force

    Undergrad How would Fg vs. r look on a graphical diagram?Fg on y-axis, r on

    - the equation for Fg = G*m1*m2/r^2 -for second part, I'm confused over the formula you provided. Would you kindly explain it?

    Undergrad How would Fg vs. r look on a graphical diagram?Fg on y-axis, r on

    for the first part, it would linear . for the second part, i would use v=2pi*r divided by T

    how would Fg vs. r look on a graphical diagram? Fg on y-axis, r on x-axis (from 1re to 6re) re (radius of the Earth) If a cannon ball is fired from the top of Everest parallel to the Earth's surface fast enough (ignoring air resistance and assuming that it doesn't bump into anything), it...

    What is the minimum speed needed for a cannonball to orbit the Earth?

    1) Graph Fg vs. r Fg on y-axis, r on x-axis (from 1re to 6re) re (radius of the Earth) 2) If a cannon ball is fired from the top of Everest parallel to the Earth's surface fast enough (ignoring air resistance and assuming that it doesn't bump into anything), it will "orbit" the Earth and...
