Develop an equation (with a proportionality constant) that describes the relationship between the gravitational force (fgrav), t

he mass of the moon (mmoon), the mass of the planet (mplanet), and the distance (d) of separation between the planet and the moon. Then support the claim (i. E. , the equation) with evidence and reasoning.

According to newton's law of gravitation, the gravitational force(F)  is directly proportional to the product mass of the moon(Mm) and the mass of the planet (Mp) and it is inversely proportional to the square of the separation between them.

Fg ∝ (Mp)(Mm) →(1)

Fg ∝ 1/d²→(2)

Combining equation (1) and (2),

Fg ∝ (Mp)(Mm)/d²

Fg =  G(Mp)(Mm)/d²

This is an equation that describes the relation between mass of moon (Mm) and mass of planet (Mp) and separation(d) between them.

To support the claim in favuor of this equation we use this equation to obtain the value of acceleration due to gravity on earth.

Let m be the mass of an object on earth then Fg between earth (Mp) and mass of an object is obtained by:

Fg =  G(Mp)(m)/R², where R= Radius of earth

This force is equal to the weight of an object i.e.,

g= G(Mp)/R²

Putting the values of G, Mp and R , we get, g=9.81 m/s²

which is the value we obtained on earth for acceleration due to gravity.

Which statement about gravity is true?
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Out of the given options, ‘it is described as a fundamental force and therefore does not depend on other forces’ is the true statement about gravity.

Answer: Option B

<u>Explanation: </u>

As we all know that there are four fundamental forces existing in the universe- Electromagnetic force, strong forces, weak forces and the gravitational force.

These are the forces that don’t depend on any other physical force to draw a considerable impact on the physical objects. The gravitational force can be defined as,

                     F=G \times \frac{m_{1} m_{2}}{r^{2}}

Where,

G = Gravitational Constant

m_{1} , m_{2} = Masses of two substances under consideration

R = distance between the two substances.

Looking upon the formula of gravitational force we can easily estimate that the gravitational force relies on the mass of substances and the relative distance between them. There is no factor than the air friction that hinders the gravitational force and that too in a negligible amount.

A proton traveling to the right enters a region of uniform magnetic field that points into the page.When the proton enters this
neonofarm [45]

Answer:

(C) deflected toward the top of the page.(

Explanation:

We can answer this problem by using Fleming's Left Hand Rule. By doing so, we have to place:

- The index finger of the left hand in the direction of the magnetic field

- The middle finger of the left hand in the direction of the particle's velocity

- The thumb will give the direction of the force, and therefore the deflection of the proton

In this problem, we have:

- Magnetic field direction: into the page --> index finger

- Proton's velocity: to the right --> middle finger

By doing so, we observe that the thumb points towards the top of the page: therefore, the correct answer is

(C) deflected toward the top of the page.

What is one way that light waves differ from sound waves?(1 point)
Shalnov [3]
Light waves are transverse while sound waves are longitudinal. Light waves can travel in vacuum. Sound waves require a material medium to travel, and hence, cannot travel in vacuum. The speed of light in a medium is constant.

Hope this helps!
