This is a poorly written question.

<span>Out of the choices listed, the first one is the only one that includes
a true statement ... the greater the mass of two objects, the greater
the gravitational attraction is between them.</span> 

-- Newton's law of universal gravitation doesn't "suggest" that.  It states it ...
boldly and unequivocally.

-- The law doesn't refer to the "greatness" of the mass of the two objects. 
It refers to the product of their masses.

-- It's true that the law of universal gravitation can be massaged and
manipulated to reveal the existence of gravitational planetary orbits.
But there's a lot more to it than simply the masses.

For example ... the gravitational force between two objects is inversely
proportional to
                           (the distance between the objects)² .

It turns out that IF that exponent were not precisely, exactly  2.000000... ,
then gravitational orbits could not exist.

Describe the different types of objects found in the Universe
Tema [17]
There are asteroids, which are rocks that fly through the space, and meteors which are pretty much the same. The only difference is their sizes. There are also planets, big and small. The moon, the dwarf planet Pluto, and many more. There are probably thousands of other planets that we haven't quite yet discovered. Soon we will though. There are also billions of stars, such as the sun, and some others we don't have names for that form constellations.
Hope this helped!!

Mass spectrometer A mass spectrometer is a tool used to determine accurately the mass of individual ionized atoms or molecules,
Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

For carbon 12

ΔV1 = 2265.31 V

ΔV2 = 362.5 V

For carbon 14

ΔV1 = 1941.7 V

ΔV2 = 310.67 V

Explanation:

The complete explanations are given in the attachment below. The formulae for the accelerating potential ΔV1 and ΔV2 are derived and the necessary parameters are substituted into the derived equations.

How does pressure depend upon force applied?​
IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

Hey mate here's your answer ⤵️

Since pressure depends only on the force acting perpendicular to the surface upon which it is applied, only the force component perpendicular to the surface contributes to the pressure exerted by that force on that surface.

How does the density of most metals compare to most non metals?
Neko [114]
Harder. Not compressible(unless using an extremely strong force). Non-metal have more of a chance of breaking than metals.
