The image is missing (however it's not necessary to solve the problem).

The correct answer is A) decreases, because the gravitational force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance. In fact, the magnitude of the gravitational force between two object of mass M and m, at a distance d one from each other, is
F=G \frac{Mm}{d^2}
where G is the gravitational constant. As can be seen from the formula, if the distance d between the two object increases, the intensity of the force decreases.

B; Decreases

Because,

The image illustrates that as the distance between two objects increases, the force of gravity decrease. The strength of gravity is affected by the distance between two objects as well as their masses

Tory has a mass of 40kg. She sleds down a hill that has a slope of 25 degrees. what is the component of her weight that is along
Fudgin [204]

1.7 x 10^2 N

or 166 N

First you find the vertical component of the weight, which is 9.8*40, (g*m), which is 392 N. You then find the angle between that and the slope, which is 90-25, which is 65. You then multiply the vertical weight by cos(65), to find the component of that that is parallel to the slope. You get 165.666 N

The planet Mars has a mass of 6.1 × 1023 kg and radius of 3.4 × 106 m. What is the acceleration of an object in free fall near t
Oksanka [162]

The acceleration due to gravity of Mars is 3.5\ m / s^{2}

<u>Explanation:</u>

As per universal law of gravity, the gravitational force is directly proportional to the product of masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. But in the present case, the gravity need to be determined between Mars and the object on Mars. Since the mass of Mars is greater than the mass of any object. Thus,

      \text {Gravitational force of planet}=\frac{G M m}{R^{2}}

Here, G is the gravitational constant, R is the radius of Mars and M, m is the mass of Mars and the object respectively..

Also, according to Newton’s second law of motion, the acceleration of any object will be equal to the ratio of force exerted on it to the mass of the object.

So in order to determine the acceleration due to gravity of Mars, divide the gravitational force of Mars by mass of object on the surface of Mars.

   Acceleration\ due\ to\ gravity\ of\ mars =\frac{\text {Gravitational force of Mars}}{m \text { of object }}

  Acceleration\ due\ to\ gravity\ of\ mars =\frac{G M m}{R^{2} \times m}=\frac{G M}{R^{2}}

  \text { Acceleration due to gravity of mars }=\frac{6.67259 \times 10^{-11} \times 6.1 \times 10^{23}}{3.4 \times 3.4 \times 10^{12}}=\frac{40.703 \times 10^{12}}{11.56 \times 10^{12}}

 \text { Acceleration }=3.5\ \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}^{2}
