Newton's law of Universal Gravitation says that one particle attracts the rest of every other particle in the universe using a force that is directly equivalent to the product of their masses and inversely equivalent to the square of the distance between them.
This is true. Gravity is constantly pulling on anything and everything (even light!), no matter how far away it is from another object.
Answer:
1. It may change the direction of an object in motion.
2. It may cause change in velocity of an object in motion.
Explanation:
1.It may change the direction of an object in motion.
When an object is in motion,an applied force on that object may change its direction.
For example, a sailboat moving eastward, can suddenly change its direction by interaction of a storm wind blowing form the south.
2. It may cause change in velocity of an object in motion .
A force applied to an object in motion can increase or decrease its speed. When the force is applied to the object in motion in the direction of that object, its velocity may increase.
On the other hand, when the force is applied in the opposite direction to the object in motion, its velocity may reduce.
Answer:
1.) Waves carry energy through empty space or through a medium without transporting matter. While all waves can transmit energy through a medium, certain waves can also transmit energy through empty space. ... When waves travel through a medium, the particles of the medium are not carried along with the wave.
2.) Mechanical Waves are waves which propagate through a material medium (solid, liquid, or gas) at a wave speed which depends on the elastic and inertial properties of that medium. There are two basic types of wave motion for mechanical waves: longitudinal waves and transverse waves. Longitudinal waves vibrating in the direction of propagation while Transverse waves vibrate at right angles to the direction of its propagation.
3.) They can carry a little energy or a lot of energy. They can be transverse or longitudinal. However, all waves have common properties—amplitude, wavelength, frequency, and speed. Amplitude describes how far the medium in a wave moves.
I hope this helps!
At some speed, the drag or force of resistance will equal the gravitational pull on the object. At this point the object ceases to accelerate and continues falling at a constant speed called the terminal velocity (also called settling velocity).
