A. 1/9

Explanation:

The gravitational force between two objects is given by

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

where

G is the gravitational constant

m1 and m2 are the two masses

r is the distance between the two masses

From the formula, we see that the magnitude of the force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance: therefore, if the distance is tripled (increased by a factor 3), the magnitude of the force changes by a factor

\frac{1}{r^2}=\frac{1}{3^2}=\frac{1}{9}

Summarize Newton's three laws of motion
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

In the first law, an object will not change its motion unless a force acts on it. In the second law, the force on an object is equal to its mass times its acceleration. In the third law, when two objects interact, they apply forces to each other of equal magnitude and opposite direction.

Mice21 [21]

Answer:

it would take rod B twice as much time

Explanation:

it would take rod B twice as much time as it is twice as thick and twice as long. Due to this reason it would take the electric charge not only more time but even more voltage to travel through the rod

How does the angle of launch affect the kinetic energy of a rubber band?​
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

The angle of launch of the rubber band affects the initial velocity. The more the rubber band is stretched the more force it applies to return to equilibrium and the more kinetic energy that results in.
