Answer:
If the distance is doubled, the force of gravity between the two bodies is one-fourth as strong as before
Explanation:
The force of gravity between two bodies depends on the mass and distance. But we will focus on distance since that's what the question asks
Therefore, the force of gravity decreases as distance between the bodies increases.
Answer:
As you know, the denser objects have more weight per unit of volume, this will mean that the force that pulls down these objects is a bit larger.
This will mean that the denser objects will always go to the bottom.
This clearly implies that the red liquid, the one with one of the smaller densities, can not be at the bottom.
There are some cases where a liquid with a small density may become a lot denser as the temperature or pressure changes, and in a case like that, we could see the red liquid at the bottom, but for this case, there is no mention of changes in the temperature nor in the pressure, so this can be discarded.
The only thing that makes sense is that the red part at the bottom is the base of the tube, and has nothing to do with the red liquid.
The coordinate system should have the origin at the point where the feather is dropped and the downward direction is to be taken as positive.
All falling bodies experience acceleration towards the center of the Earth due to the force of gravitational attraction exerted on the object by the Earth. A feather, when dropped experiences an acceleration in the downward direction. Since the acceleration of the feather is in the downward direction, a feather, when dropped with zero initial velocity, has its velocity vector directed in the direction of its acceleration.
If the downward direction is taken as positive, the falling feather can be said to have a positive velocity and a positive acceleration.
