Force between two object is given by F = Gm1m2/r^2
<span>If the mass of one object is tripled, and the distance between them is doubled,</span>
then F(new) = Gm13m2/(2r)^2 = 3Gm1m2/4r^2 = 3/4 x Gm1m2/r^2 = 3/4 x F
i.e. F(new) = 3/4 multiplied by F.
Therefore, Force is multiplied by 3/4.

The greater the mass is in an object, the higher resistance to a change in movement the object will have.
Bond [772]
True. Since Inertia states this law, we are bound to believe greater mass = greater resistance in change of motion

What is difference between kilowatt and kilowatt hour?
Scrat [10]
Those two units can be compared to a 'mile per hour' and a 'mile per hour - hour'.
One is a rate.  The other is a quantity, after maintaining a rate for some time.

-- 'Joule' is a unit of energy.  It's the amount of work (energy) you do
when you push with a force of 1 newton though a distance of 1 meter.
Lifting 10 pound of beans 3 feet off the floor takes about 40.7 joules of energy.

-- 'Watt' is a <u><em>rate</em></u> of using energy . . . 1 joule per second.
If you lift 10 pounds 3 feet off the floor in 1 second, your <em>power</em> is 40.7 watts.

-- 'Watt-second' is the amount of energy used in one second,
at the rate of 1 joule per second . . . 1 joule.

-- 'Watt-hour' is the amount of energy used in one hour,
at the rate of 1 joule per second . . . 3,600 joules.

-- 'Kilowatt' is a bigger <em>rate</em> of using energy . . . 1,000 joules per second.

-- 'Kilowatt - second' is the amount of energy used in one second,
at the rate of 1,000 joules per second . . . 1,000 joules .

-- 'Kilowatt - hour' is the amount of energy used in one hour,
at the rate of 1,000 joules per second . . . 3,600,000 joules .

Depending on where you live, 3,600,000 joules of energy bought
from the electric company costs something between 5¢ and 25¢.

A table tennis ball has a mass of about 2.45 g. Suppose the ball is hit across the table with a speed of 4.0 m/s. What is it’s k
cluponka [151]

Answer:

0.0196 j

Explanation:

i) The formula for kinetic energy is as follows: 0.5*m*v^2

ii) Since we have all the values all that's left is to plug them into the equation

iii) First, WE MUST, Convert grams into kgs as this is the SI unit of mass so 2.45/1000

iv) All that's left now is to plug it into the equation so:

0.5* (s.45/1000)*(4^2)

v) Lastly we add the unit joules at the end as we're talking about energy

Hope this was useful! :)
