By Newton's Law of Universal Gravitation.
F = GMm/r²
Where F is Force of Gravitation, M = Mass of first object, m = mass of second object, r = distance of separation
From the formula, you can see that if the masses, M and m, increased, the value of F would definitely increase as well.
And if r increased the value of F would be reduced because you would be dividing by a bigger number, but when the value of r is decreased the value of F would be increased, because you would then be dividing by something smaller. Note the r is at the denominator of the formula.
So F would increase if there was increase in Masses and decrease in distance.
So the answer is C. a and b.
Answer:
g = 11.2 m/s²
Explanation:
First, we will calculate the time period of the pendulum:
where,
T = Time period = ?
t = time taken = 135 s
n = no. of swings in given time = 98
Therefore,
T = 1.38 s
Now, we utilize the second formula for the time period of the simple pendulum, given as follows:
where,
l = length of pendulum = 54 cm = 0.54 m
g = acceleration due to gravity on the planet = ?
Therefore,
<u>g = 11.2 m/s²</u>
Answer:
By putting something like a sheet of glass in the water.
Explanation:
Putting a sheet of glass in the water will make the ripples move slower because the speed of a wave depends on the depth of water.
