Answer:

distance

Explanation:

F=GmM/r^2

if r increases in this equation, F would decrease

for example if r = 1 and increase to 2,

when r = 1, F = GmM

when r = 2 F = GmM/4

GmM < GmM/4

so when r increases F decreases

What 3 things can an object with unbalanced forces do?

Keith_Richards [23]

Forces are considered balanced when all of the combined forces lead to no change in the motion of the object. For example, when a book is sitting on a table, the force of gravity is pushing downward and the normal force is pushing upward with exactly the same amount of force. Since they are equal and opposite forces, the book does not move.

Unbalanced forces exist when there are unequal forces acting upon the object, which leads to a change in the state of motion. Unbalanced forces can lead to a change in direction, a change in speed, or both a change in direction and in speed.

Yeast breaking down starch into usable energy ____________ law of thermodynamics.

Anon25 [30]

First law of thermodynamics. This conservation law states that energy cannot be created or destroyed but can be changed from one form to another. In essence, energy is always conserved but can be converted from one form into another. Like when an engine burns fuel, it converts the energy stored in the fuel's chemical bonds into useful mechanical energy and then into heat, or more specifically, the melting ice cubes. Yeast breaks down maltose into glucose to produce alcohol and Co2 in the fermentation process. This is a prime example of the 1st law of thermodynamics. No form of usable energy is really lost; it only changes from one form to another

Answers in solutions.

Explanation:

Question 6:

The density of gold is 19.3 g/cm³

The density of silver is 10.5 g/cm³

The density of the substance in Crown A;

Density = mass ÷ volume = $\frac{1930}{100}$ = 19.3 g/cm³

Since the density of gold, given, is 19.3 g/cm³ and the density of the substance in Crown A has a density of 19.3 g/cm³ , then that substance must be gold.

The density of the substance in Crown B;

Density = mass ÷ volume = 1930 ÷ 184 = 10.48913043 g/cm³ ≈ 10.5 g/cm³ (answer rounded up to one decimal place)

Since the density of the substance in Crown B is approximately equal to 10.5 g/cm³ , then that substance is Silver.

The density of substance in Crown C;

Density = mass ÷ volume = 1930g ÷ 150cm³ = 12.86666667 ≈ 12.9 cm³ (answer rounded up to one decimal place)

<h3>The density of the mixture:</h3><h3 />

For 2 cm³ of the mixture, its mass equal 19.3 g + 10.5 g = 29.8 g

∴ for 1 cm³ of the mixture, its mass equal to $\frac{29.8}{2}$ = 14.9 g

Hence the density of the mixture = 14.9 g/cm³ and is not equal to the density of the substance in Crown C.

* Crown C is not made up of a mixture of gold and silver.

Question 7:

An empty masuring cylinder has a mass of 500 g.

Water is poured into measuring cylinder until the liquid level is at the 100 cm³ mark.

The total mass is now 850 g

The mass of water that occupied the 100 cm³ space of the container = total mass - mass of the empty container = 850 g - 500 g = 350 g

Density of the liquid (water) poured into the container = mass ÷ volume = 350 g ÷ 100 cm³ = 3.5g/cm³

Question 8:

A tank filled with water has a volume of 0.02 m³

(a) 1 liter = 0.001 m³

How many liters? = 0.02 m³ ?

Cross multiplying gives:

$\frac{0.02 * 1}{0.001}$ = 20 liters

(b) 1 m³ = 1,000,000 cm³

0.02 m³ = how many cm³ ?

Cross-multiplying gives;

$\frac{0.02 * 1,000,000}{1}$ = 20,000 cm³

∴ 0.02 m³ of the water = 20,000 cm³ = 20,000 ml

Question 9:

Caliper (a) measurement = 3.2 cm

Caliper (b) measurement = 3 cm

Question 10:

A stone is gently and completely immersed in a liquid of density 1.0 g/cm³
in a displacement can
The mass of liquid which overflow is 20 g

The mass of the liquid which overflow = mass of the stone = 20 g

1 gram of the liquid occupies 1 cm³ of space.

20 g of the liquid will occupy; $\frac{20 * 1}{1}$ = 20 cm³

(a) Since the volume of the water displaced is equal to the volume of the stone.

∴ The volume of the stone = 20 cm³

(b) Mass = density × volume

Density of the stone = 5.0 g/cm³

Volume of the stone = 20 cm³

Mass of the stone = 5 g/cm³ × 20 cm³ = 100 g

A 160.-kilogram space vehicle is traveling along a

mario62 [17]

If the object is moving in a straight line at a constant speed, then that's
the definition of zero acceleration. It can only happen when the sum of
all forces (the 'net' force) on the object is zero.

And it doesn't matter what the object's mass is. That argument is true
for specks of dust, battleships, rocks, stars, rock-stars, planets, and
everything in between.
