Why is the force of attraction between the Earth and ourselves so huge compared to the attraction between two apples?

Determine the critical height h of the water level that causes the concrete gravity dam to be on the verge of tipping over due to water pressure. the density of concrete is ρc = 2.40 mg/m3. suppose that hd = 38 m. hint: work the problem using a 1-m width of the dam.

The atoms in a sidewalk on a hot summer day are vibrating the atoms in the sidewalk on a freezing day in winter. a. more rapidly than b. more slowly than c. at the same speed as
