F1 = G * m*m / [2r]  ^2 = G * m^2 / 4r^2

Given the the mass is proportional to the volume and the volume is proportional to r^3, the mass of each big sphere is  3^3 = 27 times the mass of the small spheres. And the distance between the centers is 3r + 3r = 6r

F2 = G * [27m * 27m]/* [6r]^2 = G* 27^2 m^2 / 36r^2 = 81 G*m^2 / 4r^2 = 81*F1

Therefore, F2 = 81F1

Answer: option D) 81F1.

The standard normal curve is not symmetrical. <br> a. True<br> b. False
FrozenT [24]

Answer;

The above statement is false

Explanation;

Symmetrical distribution, commonly known as symmetric distribution or normal distribution, is typically unimodal, meaning it shows only one peak in graph form.

It is a type of distribution where the left side of the distribution mirrors the right side. By definition, a symmetric distribution is never a skewed distribution.

All normal distributions are symmetric and have bell-shaped density curves with a single peak.

Water from a fire hose is directed horizontally against at a rate of 50.0 kg/s and a speed of 42.0 m/s.
ss7ja [257]

Answer:

Force, |F| = 2100 N

Explanation:

It is given that,

Water from a fire hose is directed horizontally against at a rate of 50.0 kg/s, \dfrac{m}{t}=50\ kg/s

Initial speed, v = 42 m/s

The momentum is reduced to zero, final speed, v = 0

The relation between the force and the momentum is given by :

F=\dfrac{p}{t}

F=\dfrac{mv}{t}

F=50\ kg/s\times 42\ m/s

|F| = 2100 N

So, the magnitude of the force exerted on the wall is 2100 N. Hence, this is the required solution.
