one-tenth as much force on the heavier block

speed, velocity, acceleration

Comets orbit about the

sun

Your weight is

the gravitational attraction between you and the earth, a property of mechanical equilibrium, actually your mass

the milk carton has inertia

The fastest moving planet in a solar system is

the planet nearest the sun

the same as the force on the 1kg brick

The speed of planets about the sun depend on

their distances from the sun

In order to catch a ball, a baseball player extends the hand forward before impact with the ball and then lets it ride backward in the direction of the ball's motion .. Doing this reduces the force of impact on the player's hand principally because the

time of impact is increased

An object is raised above the ground gaining a certain amount of potential energy. If the same object is raised twice as high, it gains

twice as much potential energt

If you push an object twice as far while applying the same force, you do

twice as much work

Tidal forces in general are the result of

unequal forces acting on different parts of a body
