Object A attracts object B with a gravitational force of 10 Newton’s from a given distance. If the distance between the two obje

cts is doubled, what is the new force of an attraction between them?

If the distance between two objects is doubled, then the gravitational forces between them become (1/2)² = 1/4 of the original gravitational forces.

If the magnitude of those forces was 10 Newtons before the move then they're 2.5 Newtons after it.

I changed the wording of the discussion to plural, because the wording in the question is misleading.  It shouldn't say "Object A attracts Object B" and then let it go at that.  Gravitational forces ALWAYS occur in equal pairs.  If Object B feels a pull of 10 Newtons toward Object A, then Object A feels a pull of 10 Newtons toward Object B.  

The masses don't even matter.  Gravity is always there equally in both directions.  Your weight on Earth is equal to the Earth's weight on you !

olga_2 [115]

Answer:

The one which falls on feet.

Explanation:

Because it exerts higher pressure as

P= F/ A

Larger the area less will be the pressure and less is the area larger will be the pressure.

Calculate the resistance 50 feet of awg no. 12 solid copper wire round to nearest 0. 01 ohms.
emmasim [6.3K]

The resistance of the conductor is 0.07940 Ohms.

<h3>What is the relation between resistance and area of wire?</h3>

The wire's resistance is inversely related to its cross-sectional area; as the area drops, so does the resistance.

and it is formulated as:  

R=p\frac{l}{s}

where,

<em>p </em>- resistivity of the conductor (0.0214-ohm mm²/m)

R - resistance

l- length of conductor (50 feet) (15.24 m)

s - the area of the wire

Thus the resistance can be calculated as

R = 0.07940 Ohms.
