Answer:

The correct option is;

The acceleration remains constant

Explanation:

The acceleration is due to the force of gravitational attraction between the text book and the Earth

According to Newton's law of gravitation, there is an attractive force between all objects given by the following relation;

F = G×M₁×m₂/r²

Where;

G, M₁, m₂, and r are constant such that we have;

G×M₁/r² = Constant = The acceleraton due to gravity, g

F = g×m₂

So the acceleration of the textbook as it is being attracted by the force of gravity towards the ground (Earth) is remains constant.

The electric field at point P due to a point charge Q a distance R away has magnitude E. In order to double the magnitude of the
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

Option E, double the charge to 2, is the right answer.

Explanation:

Given the electric field at point = P

The point charge = Q

Distance =R

Magnitude = E

Due to a certain charge, the magnitude of the electric field at a point is defined as:

E = \frac{kQ}{r^2}

Here, we can see that E is proportionate to Q and 1/r^2

Hence, double the charge to 2 and at the same time reduce the distance to /2 will half the E

Therefore, doubling the charge will doubling E

So the answer is (e) is correct.

When the core of a star like the sun uses up its supply of hydrogen for fusion, the core begins to ________?
daser333 [38]

Answer: shrink and heat

Stars similar to our Sun use hydrogen as fuel, creating helium in the process of <u>nuclear fusion. </u>

Now when the hydrogen is used up, the core of the star reaches such a temperature that begins to transform the <u>helium into carbon</u><u>.</u> That is, the core heats up more due to the continuous fusion reactions and shrinks because it will not have enough pressure to maintain its size.
