Because we can feel that things are very heavy,we think of “weight” as being a fixed quality, but it is not really fixed at all. If you could take a one-pound packet of butter 4 000 miles out from the earth, it would weigh only a quarter of a pound.
Why would things weigh only a quarter as much as they do at the surface of the earth if we took them 4 000 miles out nto space? The reason is this:all objects have a natural gravity(引力)for all other objects; this is called gravitational attraction(万有引力). But this power of attraction between two objects gets weaker as they are farther apart. When the butter was at the surface of the earth, it was 4 000 miles from the centre. When we took the butter 4 000 miles out, it was 8 000 miles from the center, which is twice the distance.
If you double the distance between two objects, their gravitational attraction decreases “two times two”. If you make the distance three times far away, it gets nine times weaker (three times three). If you make it four times far away, it gets sixteen times weaker(four times four)and so on.
So this is one of the first things we need to remember: the weight of an object in space is not the same as its weight on the surface of the earth.
1.Which of the following is right?
A A thing’s weight changes with its place in space. B.“Weight” is a fixed quality in an object.
C.“Weight” is not a quality in an object. D. thing has the same weight everywhere in space.
2.There is between .
A. gravity; the two objects only B.power; all objects C. gravity; objectsD.power; two things
3.A 400 pound man-made satellite is sent to the place 2 000 miles out from the earth. Its weight is about .
A.200 pounds B.a half pounds C.100 pounds D.300 pounds
4.If we make the distance between objects five times as far away, .
A.it gets twenty-five times weaker B.their weight gets twenty-five times weaker
C.their gravity gets twenty-five times weaker D.their gravity gets twenty-five times stronger
5.After reading this passage, we should remember that we know the usual weight of a thing .
A. because it is weighed B. because it is on the surface of the earth
C.because it is in space D.because it is not far away from the earth
< B >
We spent a day in the country, picking wild flowers. Our car looked like a flower shop inside! On the way home we had to stop at traffic lights, and then my wife noticed the cupboard.
It was tall and narrow, and it stood outside a furniture shop. “Buy it,” she said at once. “We’ll carry it home on the roofrack(行李架). I’ve always wanted one like that.”
What could I do? Ten minutes later I was ￡20 poorer,and the cupboard was tied on to the roof rack. The police even stopped traffic to let us through. Carrying furniture was a good idea.
After a time my wife said, “There is a long line of cars behind. Why don’t they overtake(超车),I wonder?”
In fact a police car did overtake. The two officers inside looked at us seriously as they passed. But then with great kindness, they led us through the rush-hour traffic. The police car stopped at our village church. One of the officers came to me.
I was puzzled. “Thanks,officer,” I said. “You’ve been very kind.I live just down the road.” He was staring at our load: first at the flowers, then at the cupboard. “Well, well,” he said,laughing, “It’s a cupboard you’ve got here! We thought it was…er, something else.”
My wife began to laugh. Then the truth hit me like a stone between the eyes. I smiled at the officer. “Yes, it’s a cupboard, but thanks again.” I drove home as fast as I could.
