Answer:

force is decreased by a factor of 4.

Explanation:

According to the Newton's law of gravitation, the force of gravitation between the two object is inversely proportional to the square of distance between them. Now the distance is doubled, so the force between the two objects becomes one forth.

Force is decreased by a factor or 4.

A 100-year flood is the flooding elevation that has a one percent chance of happening each year. Why is the name misleading
fenix001 [56]
One percent annual chance of flooding does not mean it will happen with absolute certainty once every 100 years. Just that the expected value of a flood in 100 years is one.

As an example, heads has a 50% chance of happening every coin flip. With 2 coin flips, the expected value is one. However, it would be a misnomer to call "heads" a 2-flip outcome.

Which of the following positions would Earth be in if it were winter in the Northern Hemisphere?
abruzzese [7]

Answer:

Earth's tilted axis causes the seasons. Throughout the year, different parts of Earth receive the Sun's most direct rays. So, when the North Pole tilts toward the Sun, it's summer in the Northern Hemisphere. And when the South Pole tilts toward the Sun, it's winter in the Northern Hemisphere.
