The relationship between the masses of the object and the gravitational force between them is a direct relationship

Explanation:

The gravitational force between two objects is given by the equation:

$F=G\frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2}$

where

$G=6.67\cdot 10^{-11} m^3 kg^{-1}s^{-2}$ is the gravitational constant

m1, m2 are the masses of the two objects

r is the separation between them

We observe that:

- The gravitational force is proportional to the masses of the two objects, m1 and m2, so if the masses increase, the force will increase as well (so, this is a direct relationship)

- The gravitational force is inversely proportional to the square of the separation between the objects, so if the distance is increased, the force will decrease (so, this is an inverse relationship)

An astronaut is in equilibrium when he is positioned 140 km from the center of asteroid C and 581 km from the center of asteroid

serg [7]

Answer:B

Explanation:

Given

Distance of astronaut From asteroid x is $r_x=140 km$

Distance of astronaut From asteroid Y is $r_y=581 km$

Suppose M,M_x,M_y be the masses of Astronaut , asteroid X and Y

If the astronaut is in equilibrium then net gravitational force on it is zero

$F_x=F_y$

$\frac{GMM_x}{r_x^2}=\frac{GMM_y}{r_y^2}$

cancel out the common terms we get

$\frac{M_x}{r_x^2}=\frac{M_y}{r_y^2}$

$\frac{M_x}{M_y}=(\frac{r_x}{r_y})^2$

$\frac{M_x}{M_y}=(\frac{140}{581})^2$

$\frac{M_x}{M_y}=0.05806\approx 0.0581$

In which part of the ear is the sound wave converted into an electrical impulse?

user100 [1]

The Cochlea is filled with a fluid that moves in response to the vibrations from the oval window. As the fluid moves, 25,000 nerve endings are set into motion. These nerve endings transform the vibrations into electrical impulses that then travel along the eighth cranial nerve (auditory nerve) to the brain.

Would u rather/ have a penny that duplicates its self every day or win 1 million dollars once

arlik [135]

Answer:

1 million dollars once

Explanation:

Well, both would be nice. In total, you will get more from the million dollars because it takes over 2,739 years to get 1 million dollars worth of pennies.(if you get 1 a day that is)

A bumblebee darts past at 3 m/s. The frequency of the hum made by its wings is 152 Hz. Assume the speed of sound to be 342 m/s.

Veronika [31]

It'll be 152 Hz at the exact instant the bumblebee
is right at the tip of your nose, on his way past you.

Before he gets there, while he's coming at you,
he sounds like a frequency higher than 152 Hz.

After he passes by, and is going away from you,
he sounds like a frequency lower than 152 Hz.
