Sally and Sam are in a spaceship that comes to within 14,000 km of the asteroid Ceres. Determine the force Sally experiences, in
1 answer:
Sam and Sally are traveling aboard a spacecraft that approaches the asteroid Ceres within 14,000 kilometers. Sally will experience 1.989 × 10⁻¹¹ N of force.
<h3>What is the gravitational force?</h3>Newton's law of gravity states that each particle having mass in the universe attracts each other particle with a force known as the gravitational force.
The gravitational force is proportional to the product of the masses of the two bodies and inversely proportional to the square of their distance.
Given data
Mass of asteroid ,m₁ = 8.7 1020 kg
Mass of sally,m₂ = 67 kg
Gravitational constant,G = 6.6 × 10⁻¹¹ kg⁻² m²
Distance of seperation,R = 14,000 km
Hence, the force Sally experiences will be 1.989 × 10⁻¹¹ N.

Substract two consecutive terms of the sequence to see if there is a common difference:
As we can see, there is a common difference of -6.
Then, if a number of the sequence is given, the next one can be found by adding -6 (which is the same as subtracting 6).
Notice that the first term of the sequence is 3.
Then, the rule for the sequence is to start with 3 and add -6 repeatedly.
Therefore, the correct choice is option A) Start with 3 and add -6 repeatedly.
