The force of attraction between m1 and m2 is 26 N. What will this force become if m2 is tripled?

In order to determine the effect, we will first consider the mathematical expression of Newton's law of gravitation:
F = (Gm₁m₂)/r², where G is the gravitational constant, m represents the mass of a body, and r is the separation between the two bodies. 
It is visible that the force is directly proportional to the product of the two masses. Therefore, if one mass is kept constant and the other is tripled, the force will also triple. Thus, the force will be:
26 * 3
= 78 Newtons

What is the difference in light that is refracted compared to light that is reflected? Think in terms of speed of light as well
Ber [7]

Answer:

The refracted light wave is bent at an angle while the reflected light wave is bounced back either at 90° or at angle less than 180°.

The refracted light wave changes its speed when it moves from one medium to another based on the density of the medium.

The reflected light does not change its speed once it contacts another medium. It just bounces back with the same speed.

Answer:

(C) Contact

Explanation:

Radiation Poisoning is a horrific disease that is transmitted in many ways. After a nuclear accident radiation is released into the atmosphere becoming airborne and affecting everyone that breathes it in. It is also transmitted in droplets from acid rainfall. Once the gamma radiation penetrates the body of a person it can contaminate other people by having skin to skin contact with the person that is contaminated. Therefore it can be prevented by having precaution of direct contact with anyone contaminated.

What is the meaning of velocity?
masha68 [24]
Velocity is the displacement of an object over the amount of time.  It is not the same as speed.  If an object travels 4 miles forward and then 4 miles back all in one hour, its speed is 8 mph. However, displacement is the difference between the final position and the initial position. So in this case, the average velocity would be 0 because its final and initial positions were the same.
