A spaceship orbiting earth flies to the moon. How is the gravitational force pulling on the spaceship related to the distance th

at the spaceship is from the earth?
A. As the distance from the earth increases, the gravitational pull on the spaceship would decrease.


B. The gravitational pull of the earth is constant and therefore the gravitational pull on would not change.


C. As the distance from the earth decreases, the gravitational pull on the spaceship would decrease.


D. There is no gravity on the moon and therefore only the earth will exert gravitational force on the spaceship.

A is Correct, because as you increase the distance  between the spaceship and Earth the gravitational force would be less and according to Isaac Newton's Gravitational formula F = (G Mm)/r^2, the distance r is in inverse relationship to the Force.

Genetic engineering, artificial selection and cloning are examples of biotechnology
scoundrel [369]

Answer:

3.) scientific field that uses technology to purposefully change living things

Explanation:

Science can be defined as a branch of intellectual and practical study which systematically observe a body of fact in relation to the structure and behavior of non-living and living organisms (animals, plants and humans) in the natural world through experiments. One of the most important branch of science is bioengineering. Biotechnology can be defined as a high-tech process which avail scientists the opportunity or ability to modify, remove, replace and insert Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA) sequence in a living organism such as bacterias, animals, plants etc in order to correct a genetic disorder and to improve on their physical and chemical conditions.

For example, selective breeding also referred to as artificial selection is being used to create plants that are more resistant to certain biological diseases. Thus, this is an example of an organism being changed through technological methods commonly known as biotechnology.

Hence, the phrase which best defines biotechnology is that, it is the scientific field that uses technology to purposefully change living things.

How does resonance occur when you play a horn?
Marrrta [24]
Sound waves come from mechanical vibrations in solids, liquids, and gases. ... When a sound or light wave strikes an object, it is already vibrating at some particular frequency. If that frequency happens to match the resonant frequency of the object it's hitting, then you'll get what's called resonance.
