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>

what is the force of friction between an 80kg box and the ground on Earth if the coefficient is 0.2?​
Reil [10]

Answer:

160N

Explanation: When 80kg mass is one group . It's reaction force acting on a ground.

Weight of the object = 80*10

= 800 N

Here we are given cofficient of static friction its 0.2. It should be smaller than 1

Friction force = Reaction * Friction Cofficient

Reaction = 800N ( Considering Vertical Equilibrium )

F = 800* 0.2

F = 160N

What two forces act on a falling object ?
goldenfox [79]

Answer:

The two forces acting on the object are weight due to gravity pulling the object towards earth, and drag resisting this motion. When the object is first released, drag is small as velocity is low, so the resultant force is down. This means the object accelerates towards earth.
