If the probes are identical, then the one that feels a larger gravitational
force is orbiting closer to Jupiter than the other one is.

If they're not identical, then the one with greater mass will feel more
gravitational force than the one with less mass, even if they're both
the same distance from Jupiter.  (We know this from the experimental
observation that fatter people weigh more, even on Earth.)

Which pair of terms correctly fills the blanks in the following sentence? ________ is a property of an object while ________ is
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

D) resistance, resistivity

Explanation:

Resistance is a physical quantity that indicates the opposition of an object to conduct electricity, this quantity depends on different factors such as temperature, material, object length, among other things. The resistance of two objects of the same material may be different, because it depends on the specifications of the object.

On the other hand, resistivity is a more general quantity, since it is assigned to materials and depends only on the nature of the material and its temperature.

So the resistivity is related to the meterial rather than the object.

The answer is: Resistance is a property of an object while resistivity is a property of a material.
