Answer:

A. Two tennis balls that are near each other

Explanation:

The formula for gravitational force (F) between two objects is

$F = \dfrac{Gm_{1}m_{2}}{d^{2} }$

where m₁ and m₂ are the masses of the two objects, d is the distance between their centres, and G is the gravitational constant.

Thus, two objects that are far from each other will have a smaller gravitational force. We can eliminate Options C and D.

If the objects are at the same distance, those with the smaller mass will have a smaller force.

The mass of a tennis ball is 57 g.

The mass of a soccer ball is 430 g.

Two tennis balls that are near each other will have a smaller gravitational attraction.

the focal length of a simple magnifier is 8.50 cmcm . assume the magnifier to be a thin lens placed very close to the eye.

Igoryamba

When the object is at the focal point the angular magnification is 2.94.

Angular magnification:

The ratio of the angle subtended at the eye by the image formed by an optical instrument to that subtended at the eye by the object when not viewed through the instrument.

Here we have to find the angular magnification when the object is at the focal point.

Focal length = 6.00 cm

Formula to calculate angular magnification:

Angular magnification = 25/f

= 25/ 8.5

= 2.94

Therefore the angular magnification of this thin lens is 2.94

When you jump, you exert a pushing force against the ground. Gravity pulls you back down. Why can a person jump higher on the mo

Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

This is because the force of gravity is much less on the moon than on the earth, therefore the person wont be pulled down much and will jump higher

Zak, helping his mother rearrange the furniture in their living room, moves a 60 kg sofa 5.9 m with a constant force of 40 N. Wh

Len [333]

Answer:236 J

Explanation:

Given

Mass of sofa $m=60 kg$

Displacement $s=5.9 m$

Force $F=40 N$

neglecting Friction

Work done is given by

$W=F\cdot s$

$W=F\cdot s\cos 0$

$W=40\cdot 5.9$

$W=236 J$

Please help i'm going to throw up from stress

Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

Explanation:

First of all, I used the specific heat of water as 4182 J/(kgC) and the specific heat of ethyl alcohol (EtOH) as 2440 J/(kgC); that means that we need the masses in kg, not g.

120.g = .1200 kg of ethyl alcohol. Now for the formula:

$t_f=\frac{(m_{H2O}*spheat_{H2O}*temp_{H2O})+(m_{EtOH}*spheat_{EtOH}*temp_{EtOH})}{(m_{H2O}*spheat_{H2O})+(m_{EtOH}*spheat_{EtOH})}$ where spheat is specific heat.
