By unplugging unused devices, by turning off any unused lights, and by switching your lightbulbs to something more energy efficient.
Explanation:
Fgravity = G*(mass1*mass2)/D².
G is the gravitational constant, which has the same value throughout our universe.
D is the distance between the objects.
so, if you triple one of the masses, what does that do to our equation ?
Fgravitynew = G*(3*mass1*mass2)/D²
due to the commutative property of multiplication
Fgravitynew = 3* G*(mass1*mass2)/D² = 3* Fgravity
so, the right answer is 3×12 = 36 units.
The six steps of the scientific are:
1. State the question
2. Conduct research
3. Create a hypothesis
4. Perform the experiment
5. Analyze the data
6. Conclusion
So D. would be the correct answer, even though communicating the results could possibly be a step if it's required.
