What effect would decreasing the distance between objects have on their gravitational attraction to each other?

Decreasing the distance between objects will result in a greater gravitational attraction between each other. This is because the distance is inversely related to the gravitational attraction. For instance, in the same way, if the distance between two objects was increased, then their gravitational attraction to each other would decrease.

Decreasing the distance between two objects having a considerable mass would increase the attraction on gravitation. The reverse is true that if you separate or inrease the objects distance would substantially decrease their gravitational attraction. Most object in our planet is held by its gravitational force towards it's center.

Starting from rest, a racing car has a displacement of 201 m, S, in the first 5.0 s of uniform acceleration. What is the car's a
mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

Explanation:

s = ½at²

a = 2s/t²

a = 2(201) / 5.0²

a = 16.08

a = 16 m/s²

True or false<br> Hydrogen fuel cells generate electricity by combining hydrogen with oxygen.
adoni [48]

Answer:

The answer is: True.

Explanation:

If free electrons or other substances could travel through the electrolyte, they would disrupt the chemical reaction. Whether they combine at anode or cathode, together hydrogen and oxygen form water, which drains from the cell. As long as a fuel cell is supplied with hydrogen and oxygen, it will generate electricity.

When an elevator is accelerating downward, the normal force is equal to mg-ma (hence you feel a little lighter when accelerating downwards)

Therefore, the upward force of the elevator floor on the person must be less than 750N

During science class, while studying mixtures, you mix together iron filings and sand. Your teacher challenges you to separate t
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer : Use a magnet to pull out the iron filings as they are attracted to a magnet

Explanation :  we use the magnet to separate the sand from the iron filing. Because the magnet has an attraction power.

We can say that we can use the magnet to attract the iron filings out of the mixture because iron is magnetic solid, but sand will not attract because sand is not magnetic solid.

So,  we use a magnet to pull out the iron filings as they are attracted to a magnet.

Two forces of 83 pounds and 56 pounds act simultaneously on an object. The resultant forms an angle of 52° with the 56-pound for
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

95.9°

Explanation:

The diagram illustrating the action of the two forces on the object is given in the attached photo.

Using sine rule a/SineA = b/SineB, we can obtain the value of B° as shown in the attached photo as follow:

a/SineA = b/SineB,

83/Sine52 = 56/SineB

Cross multiply to express in linear form

83 x SineB = 56 x Sine52

Divide both side by 83

SineB = (56 x Sine52)/83

SineB = 0.5317

B = Sine^-1(0.5317)

B = 32.1°

Now, we can obtain the angle θ, between the two forces as shown in the attached photo as follow:

52° + B° + θ = 180° ( sum of angles in a triangle)

52° + 32.1° + θ = 180°

Collect like terms

θ = 180° - 52° - 32.1°

θ = 95.9°

Therefore, the angle between the two forces is 95.9°
