Answer:

Both distance between and mass of the 2 objects

Explanation:

The gravitational pull between two objects is given by:

$F=G\frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2}$

where

G is the gravitational constant

m1 is the mass of the first object

m2 is the mass of the second object

r is the distance between the two objects

From the formula, we see that the gravitational pull depends both on the distance between the two objects (r) and on their masses (m1, m2), so the correct answer is

Both distance between and mass of the 2 objects

A car of mass 998 kilograms moving in the positive y–axis at a speed of 20 meters/second collides on ice with another car of mas

goldfiish [28.3K]

<span> Let’s determine the initial momentum of each car.
#1 = 998 * 20 = 19,960
#2 = 1200 * 17 = 20,400

This is this is total momentum in the x direction before the collision. B is the correct answer. Since momentum is conserved in both directions, this will be total momentum is the x direction after the collision. To prove that this is true, let’s determine the magnitude and direction of the total momentum after the collision.

Since the y axis and the x axis are perpendicular to each other, use the following equation to determine the magnitude of their final momentum.

Final = √(x^2 + y^2) = √(20,400^2 + 19,960^2) = √814,561,600

This is approximately 28,541. To determine the x component, we need to determine the angle of the final momentum. Use the following equation.

Tan θ = y/x = 19,960/20,400 = 499/510
θ = tan^-1 (499/510)

The angle is approximately 43.85˚ counter clockwise from the negative x axis. To determine the x component, multiply the final momentum by the cosine of the angle.

x = √814,561,600 * cos (tan^-1 (499/510) = 20,400</span>

A car accelerates from rest at 3.6 m/s 2 . How much time does it need to attain a speed of 5 m/s?

Olenka [21]

car starts from rest

$v_i = 0$

final speed attained by the car is

$v_f = 5 m/s$

acceleration of the car will be

$a = 3.6 m/s^2$

now the time to reach this final speed will be

$t = \frac{v_f - v_i}{a}$

$t = \frac{5 - 0}{3.6}$

$t = 1.39 s$

so it required 1.39 s to reach this final speed

If a circuit has a power of 50 W with a current of 4.5 A, what is the resistance in the circuit?

lawyer [7]

Answer:

${ \rm{power, \: p = current \times p.d}} \\ { \rm{50 = 4.5 \times (current \times resistance)}} \\ { \rm{50 = 4.5 \times (4.5 \times r)}} \\ { \rm{resistance = \frac{50}{ {4.5}^{2} } }} \\ \\ { \rm{resistance = 2.5 \: ohms}}$

Without completing the calculations, determine what the new volume will be in the problem below. Also, explain how you were able

Talja [164]

Boyles law

Pressure and volume are inversely proportional as the new variable changes from the known.

Double the pressure equals 1/2 of original volume, assuming temperature remains the same.

So 40.0 mL is the new volume as it is compressed.
