The gravitational force between two objects (mass1 = 10kg, mass2 = 6kg) is measured when the objects are 12 centimeters apart. I

f the distance between them is increased to 36 centimeters, how does the new gravitational attraction compare to the first one that was measured? A. The new gravitational force is 3 times larger than the old one B. The new gravitational force is 9 times larger than the old one C. The new gravitational force is 3 times smaller than the old one D. The new gravitational force is 9 times smaller than the old one

Since the new distance is 3 times the old distance,
the new force is (1/3²) = 1/9th of the old force.

That's kind-of Choice-D, but I really don't like the way choice-D is worded.
"9 times smaller" is really pretty meaningless.

Una pelota de tenis de 100 g de masa lleva una rapidez de 20 m/s. Al ser golpeada por una raqueta, se mueve en sentido contrario
REY [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

El impulso aplicado a la pelota produce una variación en su momento lineal.

J = m (V -Vo)

Conviene elegir positivo el sentido de la velocidad final.

J = 0,100 kg [40 - (- 20)] m/s = 6 kg m/s

In one scene in the movie The Godfather II, a solid gold phone is passed around a large table for everyone to see. Suppose the v
dangina [55]
Volume of gold in the phone = 10 cm^3
                                              = 0.<span>00001 m^3 </span>
Density of gold = 19300 kg/m^3
1 kg mass = 2.2 pounds
Mass of 10 cm^3 of gold = 0<span>.00001 m^3 * (19300 kg/m^3)
                                        = 0.193 kg 
So
0.193 kg = 0.193 * 2.2 pounds
               = 0.43 pounds
I think there is something wrong with the options given in the question.</span>

Which describes an object in projectile motion? Check all that apply.
Elodia [21]

Answer:

Gravity acts to pull the object down.

The object’s inertia carries it forward.

The path of the object is curved.

Explanation:

The motion of a projectile consists of two separate motions:

- A uniform motion along the horizontal direction, where the velocity is constant; since there are no forces along this direction, the velocity does not change, and so the object continues its motion for inertia --> so, the statement  "The object’s inertia carries it forward" is true.

- A uniformly accelerated motion along the vertical direction, with a constant downward acceleration (g=9.8 m/s^2, acceleration due to gravity). So, the vertical velocity changes, due to the presence of the gravity that acts to pull the object down.

- As a result of the combination of these two motions, the object follows a curved path (in particular, it is a parabolic path).
