Force = mass x acceleration
Force = 4kg x 10m/s^2
Force = 40N
Answer:
It decreases.
Explanation:
between the two interacting objects, more separation distance will result in weaker gravitational forces. So as two objects are separated from each other, the force of gravitational attraction between them also decreases
Answer:
Explanation:
given
T = 3months = 7.9 × 10⁶s
orbital speed = 88 × 10³m/s
V= 2πr÷T
∴ r = (V×T) ÷ 2π
r = (88km × 7.9 × 10⁶s) ÷ 2π
r = 1.10 × 10⁸km
using kepler's 3rd law
mass of both stars = (seperation diatance)³/(orbital speed)²
M₁ + M₂ = (2r)³/(
year)²
= (1.06 × 10²⁵)/(6.2×10¹³)
1.71×10¹²kg
since M₁ = M₂ =1.71×10¹²kg ÷ 2
M₁ = M₂ = 8.55×10¹¹kg
Answer:
Nicolaus Copernicus
Explanation:
With the development of the heliocentric model by Nicolaus Copernicus in the 16th century, the Sun was believed to be the center of the Universe, with the planets (including Earth) and stars orbiting it.
