Travka [436]4 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Kinetic Energy

Explanation:

In relation to the question, as the sheriff rides a horse, the sheriff is in motion and a body in motion is said top possess kinetic energy.

Kinetic energy is that energy of the body that it gains due to the motion or speed of the body which it gains and maintains.

In other words, we can say that the amount of work needed to accelerate an object from its position of rest and set it into motion at some certain velocity.

How does the gravitational force between two objects change if the distance between the objects doubles?
Ymorist [56]

if the distance between the objects is doubled the force is reduced by a factor of 4

<h3>Whats is gravitational force?</h3>

Gravitational force is the force of attraction between objects in the universe.

f = G * m1 * m2 / r^2

f = gravitational force

G = gravitational constant

m1 = mass of object 1

m2 = mass of object 2

r = distance between the objects

From the formular, the gravitational force and the distance is an inverse relationship so increasing the distance by a factor results to reduction of the force by the square of the factor. hence doubling the distance which is distance mutiplied by 2 will lead to reduction of the force by 2^2 = 4

Therefore: The force decreases by a factor of 4.

hope it helps

An infected tooth forms an abscess (area of infected tissue) that fills with gas. The abscess puts pressure on the nerve of the
Marianna [84]

Answer:

No, the treatment won't work

Explanation:

Since the abscess is filled with gas, and is already putting pressure on the tooth nerve, applying moist heat will only aggravate the problem. The pressure of a given gas increases with temperature and so, the gas within the abscess will only put more pressure on the nerve due to the expansion of the gas within the abcess, causing her more discomfort.
