The gravitational force experienced by Earth due to the Moon is ________ the gravitational force experienced by the Moon due to

Earth. (Note that the Moon is about 1% of the mass of Earth.)

The gravitational force experienced by Earth due to the Moon is <u>equal to </u>the gravitational force experienced by the Moon due to Earth.

<u>Explanation</u>:

The force that attracts any two objects/bodies with mass towards each other is defined as gravitational force. Generally the gravitational force is attractive, as it always pulls the masses together and never pushes them apart.

The gravitational force can be calculated effectively using the following formula: F=GMmr^2  

where “G” is the gravitational constant.

Though gravity has the ability to pull the masses together, it is the weakest force in the nature.

The mass of the Earth and moon varies, but still the gravitational force felt by the Earth and Moon are alike.

Which of the following statements is correct?
Mumz [18]

Answer: c. Generally, metals are ductile.

Explanation:

From the options given in the question, the correct statement is that"Generally, metals are ductile.

Ductility of a metal simply means that a metal can be plastically deform before it is then fractured. It implies that metals can be drawn to thin wires. The only exception we have in this case is mercury.

How can i tell the difference between a one element and another?
dybincka [34]


Normally, the number of electrons is equal to the number of protons, which makes atoms electrically neutral. The number of protons in an atom is the defining feature of an atom. It's what makes one element different from another

Force F acts between two charges, q1 and q2, separated by a distance d. If q1 is increased to twice its original value and the d

Okay, haven't done physics in years, let's see if I remember this.

So Coulomb's Law states that F = k \frac{Q_1Q_2}{d^2} so if we double the charge on Q_1 and double the distance to (2d) we plug these into the equation to find

<span>F_{new} = k \frac{2Q_1Q_2}{(2d)^2}=k \frac{2Q_1Q_2}{4d^2} = \frac{2}{4} \cdot k \frac{Q_1Q_2}{d^2} = \frac{1}{2} \cdot F_{old}</span>

So we see the new force is exactly 1/2 of the old force so your answer should be \frac{1}{2}F if I can remember my physics correctly.
