In the equation for the gravitational force between two objects, which quantity must be squared?​

Physics

timama [110]3 years ago

Answer: The distance between the objects.

Explanation: The equation for the gravitational force is written as:

F = G*m1*m2/r^2

Where r is the distance between the objects, m1 and m2 are the masses and G is the gravitational constant.

This cuantity is in the denominator because, as larger is the distance, smaller is the strenght of the field.

And is squared because is a force that spreads in a solid angle (as the change of area in a growing sphere )

A girl throws a ball of mass 0.80 kg against a wall. The ball strikes the wall horizontally with a speed of 25 m/s, and it bounc
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

F = 800N

the magnitude of the average force exerted on the wall by the ball is 800N

Explanation:

Applying the impulse-momentum equation;

Impulse = change in momentum

Ft = m∆v

F = (m∆v)/t

Where;

F = force

t = time

m = mass

∆v = v2 - v1 = change in velocity

Given;

m = 0.80 kg

t = 0.050 s

The ball strikes the wall horizontally with a speed of 25 m/s, and it bounces back with this same speed.

v2 = 25 m/s

v1 = -25 m/s

∆v = v2 - v1 = 25 - (-25) m/s = 25 +25 = 50 m/s

Substituting the values;

F = (m∆v)/t

F = (0.80×50)/0.05

F = 800N

the magnitude of the average force exerted on the wall by the ball is 800N

kherson [118]
When sedimentary rock is exposed to heat and pressure it changes into METAMORPHIC ROCK.
Heat and pressure have the capacity to change a rock into a completely new type of rock. An igneous rock or a sedimentary rock can be changed into a metamorphic rock as a result of heat and pressure which the rock is subjected to. Metamorphic rocks are usually formed from already existing rocks that are exposed to pressure and heat.
