The centers of two 15.0 kg spheres are separated by 3.00 m. The magnitude of the gravitational force between the two spheres is

kompoz [17]

we have to use newtons law of gravitation which is
F=GMm/r^2
G=6.67 x 10^-11N kg^2/m^2
M=(15kg)
m=15 kg
r=(3.0m)^2
putting values we have
=(6.67 x 10^-11N kg^2/m^2)(15kg)(15kg)/(3.0m)^2 
=1.67 x 10^-9N

A reaction that releases heat is: endothermic exothermic none of the above

Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

Exothermic reaction

Explanation:

A reaction that releases heat is known as an exothermic reaction.
Reactions can be classified as either exothermic or endothermic depending on whether they release or absorb heat from the surrounding.
A reaction that absorbs or gains heat from the surrounding is known as endothermic reaction.
On the other hand, if a reaction releases heat to the surrounding is known as exothermic reaction.
An exothermic reactions results to an increase in temperature of a solution while an endothermic reaction results to a decrease in the temperature of a solution.
