According to this equation

F = G × m₁*m₂ ÷ r²

other than the mass, the distance also affects the gravitational force between two objects (same mass or not).

Therefore the correct answer is B. The distance between the objects

Future note* use formulas to help you figure these sort of questions out. (if they have a formula to begin with).

You are the juror of a case involving a drunken driver whose 1041 kg sports car ran into a stationary 1928 kg station wagon stop
mina [271]
1. Find the force of friction between the sports car and the station wagon stuck together and the road. The total mass m = 1928kg + 1041kg = 2969kg. The only force in the x-direction is friction: F = μ*N = μ * m * g 
2. Find the acceleration due to friction: 
F = m*a =  μ * m * g => a = μ * g = 0.6 * 9.81
3. Find the time it took the two cars stuck together to slide 12m:
x = 0.5*a*t² 
t = sqrt(2*x / a) = sqrt(2 * x / (μ * g) )
4. Find the initial velocity of the two cars:
v = a*t = μ * g * sqrt(2 * x / (μ * g) ) = sqrt( 2 * x * μ * g)
5. Use the initial velocity of the two cars combined to find the velocity of the sports car. Momentum must be conserved:

m₁ mass of sports car
v₁ velocity of sports car before the crash
m₂ mass of station wagon
v₂ velocity of station wagon before the crash = 0
v velocity after the crash

m₁*v₁ + m₂*v₂ = (m₁+m₂) * v = m₁*v₁ 
v₁ = (m₁+m₂) * v / m₁ = (m₁+m₂) * sqrt( 2 * x * μ * g) / m₁
v₁ = 33.9 m/s

A 4 cm diameter ball is located 40 cm from a point source and 80 cm from a wall. What is the size of the shadow on the wall?
Slav-nsk [51]
<span>11.823 cm There is a slight ambiguity with this question in that I don't know if the measurements are from the surface of the ball, or the center of the ball. I will take this question literally and as such the point light source will be 124 cm from the wall. The key thing to remember is that ball won't be showing an effective diameter of 4 cm to the light source. Instead the shadow line is a tangent to the ball's surface. There is a right triangle where the hypotenuse is the distance from the center of the ball to the light source (42 cm), one leg of the triangle is the radius (2cm). That right triangle will define a chord that will be the effective diameter of the disk casting the shadow. The cosine of the half angle of the chord will be 2/42 = 1/21. The sine of the half angle then becomes sqrt(1-(1/21)^2) = sqrt(440/441) = 2sqrt(110) = 0.99886557. Now multiply that sine by 4 (radius of ball multiplied by 2 since it's the half angle and we want the full side of the chord) and we get an effective diameter of 3.995462279 cm. Now we need to calculate the effective distance that circle is from the wall. It will be slightly larger than 82 cm. The exact value will be 82 + cos(half angle) * radius. So 82 + 1/21 * 2 = 82 + 2/21 = 82.0952381 Now we have the following dimensions with a circle replacing the ball in the original problem. Distance from wall to effective circle = 82.0952381 cm Distance from effective circle to point source = 124 - 82.0952381 = 41.9047619 cm Effective diameter of circle = 3.995462279 cm And because the geometry makes similar triangles, the following ratio applies. 3.995462279/41.9047619 = X/124 Now solve for X 3.995462279/41.9047619 = X/124 124*3.995462279/41.9047619 = X 495.4373226/41.9047619 = X 11.82293611 = X The shadow cast on the wall will be a circle with a diameter of 11.823 cm</span>
