The new magnitude of the force of attraction will be 6 times the original force of attraction

<h3>How to determine the initial force </h3>
  • Mass 1 = m₁
  • Mass 2 = m₂
  • Gravitational constant = G
  • Distance apart = r
  • Initial force (F₁) = ?

F = Gm₁m₂ / r²

F₁ = Gm₁m₂ / r²

<h3>How to determine the new force </h3>
  • Mass 1 = 2m₁
  • Mass 2 = 3m₂
  • Gravitational constant = G
  • Distance apart (r) = r
  • New force (F₂) =?

F = Gm₁m₂ / r²

F₂ = G × 2m₁ × 3m₂ / r²

F₂ = 6Gm₁m₂ / r²

But

F₁ = Gm₁m₂ / r²

Therefore

F₂ = 6Gm₁m₂ / r²

F₂ = 6F₁

Thus, the new magnitude of the force of attraction will be 6 times the original force of attraction

Which type of thermal energy transfer does a wrapping of cotton or plastic reduce the most, conduction, convection, radiation, t
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer: Thermal Energy is energy resulting from the motion of particles; It is a form of kinetic energy and is transferred as heat; Thermal Energy Transfer can occur by three methods: Conduction; Convection; Radiation; Conduction. Conduction is the transfer of thermal energy through direct contact between . particles of a substance.

Which statement best describes the energy of activation?
Varvara68 [4.7K]

hi <3

i believe the answer would be D, as when the temperature increases the particles have more energy and can overcome the activation energy more rapidly.

hope this helps :)

What is the total energy of a particle with a rest mass of 1 gram moving with half the speed of light? 1 eV = 1.6 x 10^-19 J. An
GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

6.5 x 10^32 eV

Explanation:

mass of particle, mo = 1 g = 0.001 kg

velocity of particle, v = half of velocity of light = c / 2

c = 3 x 10^8 m/s

Energy associated to the particle

E = γ mo c^2

E=\frac{m_{0}c^}2}{\sqrt{1-\frac{v^{2}}{c^{2}}}}

E=\frac{m_{0}c^}2}{\sqrt{1-\frac{c^{2}}{4c^{2}}}}

E=\frac{2m_{0}c^}2}{\sqrt{3}}

E=\frac{2\times0.001\times9\times10^{16}}{1.732}

E=1.04\times10^{14}J

Convert Joule into eV

1 eV = 1.6 x 10^-19 J

So, E=\frac{1.04\times10^{14}}{1.6\times10^{-19}}=6.5\times10^{32}eV

If you walk 1.2 km north and then 1.6 km east, what are the magnitude and direction of your resultant displacement?
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

B

Assume north and east as two sides of a right angled triangle. magnitude of the distance is then given by the length of the hypotenuse which is \sqrt{a^2 + b^2}

where a = 1.2 km north

and b = 1.6 km east

magnitude = 2 km

Direction is given by the angle between them, that is atan(a/b) = 36.86 deg north of east = 53.1 deg east of north.
