Suppose Earth's mass increased but Earth's diame-

Answer: It would increase.

Explanation:

The equation for determining the force of the gravitational pull between any two objects is:

F = G \frac{m1m2}{r^2}

Where G is the universal gravitational constant, m1 is the mass of one body, m2 is the mass of the other body, and r^2 is the distance between the two objects' centers squared.

Assuming the Earth's mass but not its diameter increased, in the equation above m1 (the term usually indicative of the object of larger mass) would increase, while the r^2 would not.

Thus, it goes without saying that, with some simple reasoning about fractions, an increasing numerator over a constant denominator would result in a larger number to multiply by G, thus also meaning a larger gravitational strength between Earth and whatever other object is of interest.

a bicycle travels at a velocity of -2.33 m/s and has a displacement of -58.3 m. how much time did it take?
Alexandra [31]
We know that velocity is equal to the total displacement of an object over time.
velocity =  \frac{displacement}{time}
Deriving from that equation, we can say that:
t =  \frac{d}{v}
Okay, so here it goes:
t =  \frac{58.3m}{2.33 \frac{m}{s} } \\ t = 25.02s
The bicycle took 25.02 seconds to displace at 58.3 meters.

In which of these samples do the molecules most likely have the most kinetic energy? (2 points)
Vinvika [58]

D, water vapor. Gaseous state would have more kinetic energy, they are moving faster. If you have to compare the same state, then higher temperature would have the higher kinetic energy. But if you have solid and liquid at the same temperature - then liquid would have more.

. A vertical electric field is set up in space to compensate for the gravitational force on a point charge. What is the required
Delicious77 [7]

(a) The required magnitude of the electric field when the point charge is an electron is 5.57 x 10⁻¹¹ N/C.

(b) The required magnitude of the electric field when the point charge is an proton is 1.02 x 10⁻⁷ N/C.

<h3>Magnitude of electric field </h3>

The magnitude of electric field is given by the following equation.

F = qE

But F = mg

mg = qE

E = mg/q

where;

  • E is the electric field
  • m is mass of the particle
  • g is acceleration due to gravity
  • q is charge of the particle
<h3>For an electron</h3>

E = (9.11 x 10⁻³¹ x 9.8)/(1.602 x 10⁻¹⁹)

E = 5.57 x 10⁻¹¹ N/C

<h3>For proton</h3>

E = (1.67 x 10⁻²⁷ x 9.8)/(1.602 x 10⁻¹⁹)

E = 1.02 x 10⁻⁷ N/C

Thus, the required vertical electric field is greater when the charge is proton.

A car ends up colliding with a tree. Compare the force the car exerts on the tree with the force the tree exerts on the car.
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer: The force will exert into the tree causing it to absorb the compact hit by the car which means the car gets damaged severely but the tree maybe only has a tiny crack. Mark me as Brainliest! :)
