Answer is at the very end
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Mass of the asteroid = 10 x 10⁹kg
Distance between the asteroid = 850km
Unknown:
Force = ?
Solution:
We can predict the outcome of this reduction in distance between the two masses using the newton's law of universal gravitation.
The law states that "the gravitational force of attraction between two masses is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distances between them".
Mathematically, we have;
F =
F is the gravitational force
G is the universal gravitational constant = 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹Nm²kg⁻²
m is the mass of the body
r is the distance between them.
From this, we know that as the separation increases, the force of gravitation will reduce since the mass is constant.
The distance between the two asteroids decreased from 1000km to 850km, this will increase the force of attraction between them and we expect the force to be higher than 6700N.
At 1000Km, force = 6700N,
since as the distance reduces the force increases, we expect the force to be about 9200N.
Let us verify this by plugging the values into the equation:
F =
F = 9200N

Answer:
Succession
Explanation:
<u>The biologists were attempting to imitate succession.</u>
Succession refers to a gradual change to the structure and species composition of a community over a period of time.
A newly colonized environment such as a bare rock forms a community is said to be in primary succession. Thereafter, the structure and composition of the community keep changing until a relatively stable community, otherwise known as climax community, is established.
Secondary succession happens when a disturbed community tries to regain its original dynamics in terms of species composition and structure. A climax community is often less diverse than a community that is still in active succession.
<em>Hence, the biologists were attempting to imitate succession by burning/disturning a relatively stable, less diverse climax community of grassland in order to realize a more diverse community that will undergo secondary succession. </em>
