Solve this using Olm's law, which relates current (C), voltage (V), and resistance (R). Olm's law says:
I \: (current ) ={\frac {V \: (voltage) }{R\:(resistance)}}

We are told that voltage, V = 12V, and resistance, R = 4.8 <span>Ω. Plug these values into the equation and solve for current:
</span>I = \frac{V}{R}\\&#10;I = \frac{12}{4.8}\\&#10;I = 2.5A&#10;&#10;
<span>-----
Answer: Current = 2.5 Amperes</span>

What happens to the gravitational potential energy between two particles if the distance between them is halved? (a) It does not
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

The gravitational potential energy between two particles, if the distance between them is halved, is multiplied by 4 (option c).

Explanation:

The gravitational force is the force of mutual attraction that two objects with mass experience.

The Law of Universal Gravitation enunciated by Newton says that every material particle attracts any other material particle with a force directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance that separates them. Mathematically this is expressed as:

F=G*\frac{m1*m2}{r^{2} }

where m1 and m2 are the masses of the objects, r the distance between them and G a universal constant that receives  the name of constant of gravitation.

If the distance between two particles is reduced by half, then, where F' is the new value of the gravitational force:

F'=G*\frac{m1*m2}{(\frac{r}{2} )^{2} }

F'=G*\frac{m1*m2}{\frac{(r )^{2} }{2^{2} } }

F'=G*\frac{m1*m2}{\frac{(r )^{2} }{4} }

F'=4*G*\frac{m1*m2}{r^{2} }

F'=4*F

<u><em> The gravitational potential energy between two particles, if the distance between them is halved, is multiplied by 4 (option c).</em></u>

in the diagram the solid eventually becomes a gas what will happen to bring the substance from a solid to a gas
Ratling [72]
Since there is no diagram I can see to prove my answer, I must infer that a heat source should be applied to the solid substance and cause the atoms in the solid to spread further apart and become a different state, in which atoms will be able to freely move, gas.
