The gravitational force between two objects is 45,000 N. What will be the gravitational force between the two objects if the dis

tance between the objects is reduced by one-half?

Answer:

180000 N

Explanation:

According to Newton's law of gravitation

F= G m1 m2 / r^2

This expression shows that if distance is reduced to half the gravitational force will increase 4 times.

a) A Kuiper Belt Object orbits the Sun with an average orbital distance of 40 AU. What is its orbital period? Round your answer

denpristay [2]

Answer:

253 years

Explanation:

a = Distance in Astronomical units from the sun = 40 AU

P = Orbital period in years

From Kepler's law we have

$P^2=a^3$

$\Rightarrow P^2=40^3$

$\Rightarrow P^2=64000$

$\Rightarrow P=\sqrt{64000}$

$\Rightarrow P=252.982212813$

$\Rightarrow P\approx 253\ years$

The orbital period of the Kuiper belt object is 253 years.

Since there is no air resistance, gravity is the only force acting on the two objects - the bowling ball and the arrow. Therefore, they will hit the ground at the same time. Thus the answer is D. Both hit the ground at the same time. Hope this helped and have a great day!

Suppose you increase your walking speed from 6 m/s to 14 m/s in a period of 2 s. What is your acceleration? m/s2

saveliy_v [14]

4.5m/s you count the number between 6 and 14 and get 9 do 9 divided by 2 and you get 4.5 m/s increase. hope this helps.
