The gravitational force between two objects increases as​

Physics
1 answer:
Misha Larkins [42]3 years ago
8 0

Answer: Their masses increases or the distance <u>between</u> them decreases

Explanation:

According to Newton's law of Gravitation, the gravitational force F exerted between two bodies of masses m1 and m2  and separated by a distance r  is equal to the <u>product of their masses</u> and inversely proportional to the <u>square of the distance</u>:

F=G\frac{(m1)(m2)}{r^2}   (1)

Where G is the Gravitational Constant

As we can see, if <u>one body increases its mass</u> or if <u>both bodies increase their mass</u>, the gravitational force will<u> increase</u> as well.

In addition, is the <u>distance between the two bodies is decreased</u>, the  <u>gravitational force will increase</u>.

Therefore:

The gravitational force between two objects increases as​ <u>their mass increases or the distance between them decreases.</u>

1. What are the units of : pressure, force , area
White raven [17]

Pressure- Pascal(N/m^2)

Force- Newton

Area-m^2(Square metre)

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • Pressure is force continuous force applied to an object. The applied force is always perpendicular to the surface of the object.
  • Force is a push or pulls on an object by an external body where it changes its state from rest to motion.
  • Force is said to have both magnitude and direction.
  • Area is the portion that shows the scale of a 2D form or configuration in the level. The covering area is its analog on the 2D surface of a 3D object.

A clam of mass 0.12 kg dropped by a seagull takes 3.0 s to hit the ground. [Neglect friction.]
jarptica [38.1K]

-- The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s².
So if there's no air resistance, the speed of a falling object
always increases by 9.8 m/s for every second it falls.

             Speed  =  (original speed) + (gravity  x  falling time)

-- If it has no vertical speed when it started, then at the end
of 3 seconds, its speed is

                         =       (0)            + (9.8 m/s²  x  3 sec)

                       Velocity  =  29.4 m/s downward .

What are some examples of wave refractions?​
ankoles [38]

-- The lenses of eyeglasses work because of refraction.

-- A pencil standing in a half-glass of water looks broken because of refraction.

-- The lenses and mirrors in telescopes and microscopes work because of refraction.

-- When the sun is setting and it looks squashed ... shorter and wider than a true circle ... that's caused by refraction of the sunlight through Earth's atmosphere.
