What is the effect on the force of gravity between two objects if the mass of one object remains unchanged while the distance to

the second object and the second object's mass are both doubled?

Answer:

The force of gravity after you double the mass and the distance is half of the initial force: F_{2}=\frac{1}{2}F_{1}

Explanation:

The initial force of gravity is:

F_{1}=\frac{Gm_{1}m_{2}}{r^2}

where G is the universal gravitational constant, m_{1} is the mass of the first object, m_{2} is the mass of the second object, and r is the distance between the objects.

If the mass of the second object is doubled, now we have 2m_{2}, and if the distance between the objects is also doubled instead of r now we have 2r.

So the force of gravity now is:

F_{2}=\frac{Gm_{1}(2m_{2})}{(2r)^2}\\ F_{2}=\frac{2Gm_{1}m_{2}}{4r^2} \\F_{2}=\frac{1}{2} \frac{Gm_{1}m_{2}}{r^2}

and we know that F_{1}=\frac{Gm_{1}m_{2}}{r^2}

so the new force of gravity is:

F_{2}=\frac{1}{2}F_{1}

The force of gravity after you double the mass and the distance is half of the initial force.

What parameters affects the inductance of a coil​
Kazeer [188]

Answer:

Number of Wire Turns in the Coil.

Explanation:

The greater the number of turns of wire in the coil, the greater the inductance. Fewer turns of wire in the coil results in lesser inductance. More coils of wires indicate a greater amount of magnetic field force for a given amount of coil current.

You are sitting 3 m away from you friend who is watching a cartoon on his phone. How will the sound itensity change if your frie
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

Decreases by $3.6 \times 10^{-3}$ times

Explanation:

The intensity of a sound is defined as the energy of the sound that is flowing in an unit time through the unit area which is in the direction that is perpendicular to the direction of the sound waves movement.

The intensity of energy is described by the inverse square law. It states that the intensity varies inversely with the distance square of the distance.

In other words, the sound intensity decreases as inversely proportional to the squared of the distance.  i.e. $\frac{1}{r^2}$

In the context when the distance was 3 m, the intensity of the sound was = $\frac{1}{9}$

But when the distance became 6 cm or 0.06 m, the sound intensity decreases by =  $\frac{1}{0.06^2}$

                       = $3.6 \times 10^{-3}$ times

1. What are the units of : pressure, force , area
White raven [17]

Pressure- Pascal(N/m^2)

Force- Newton

Area-m^2(Square metre)

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • Pressure is force continuous force applied to an object. The applied force is always perpendicular to the surface of the object.
  • Force is a push or pulls on an object by an external body where it changes its state from rest to motion.
  • Force is said to have both magnitude and direction.
  • Area is the portion that shows the scale of a 2D form or configuration in the level. The covering area is its analog on the 2D surface of a 3D object.
