An object in motion will continue to move in the same direction and with the same speed unless acted upon by an unbalanced force. states that forces occur as equal and opposite pairs. The strength of the force is related to the mass of the objects and the distance between them.

When force is applied over a certain distance and motion is in the same direction as the force, then you have a simple case of "WORK" being done, as it's defined in Physics.

The amount of work done in this case is (the force) multiplied by (the distance).

If the force is measured in Newtons and the distance is measured in meters, then the product has the units of Joules (energy).

if the distance of separation begin two objects is doubled, is the gravitational force between the objects increased or decrease

SashulF [63]

Answer:

force is decreased by a factor of 4.

Explanation:

According to the Newton's law of gravitation, the force of gravitation between the two object is inversely proportional to the square of distance between them. Now the distance is doubled, so the force between the two objects becomes one forth.

Force is decreased by a factor or 4.

How many ohms of resistance must be present in a circuit that has 240 volts and a current of 15 amps?

PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

16 ohms

Explanation:

V= I ⋅ R

where, V is the net potential difference in the circuit, I is the current in the circuit and R is the net resistance of the circuit.

In this case, V = 240 volts, I = 15 amperes.

240 = 15 ⋅ R
