<span>Based on Newton's law of universal gravitation, the equation for the gravitational force exerted by an object on another object is given by:
F = Gm1m2/(r^2)
where G is the universal gravitational constant, F is the gravitational force exerted, m1 is the mass of the first object, m2 is the mass of the second object, and r is the separation distance between the two objects.
If the mass of both objects were doubled, then we would have: m1' * m2' = (2m1) * (2m2) = 4m1m2. Assuming r stays constant (G is a constant so that won't change anyway), then this means that the new force will be 4 times greater, ie 8N * 4 = 32N of gravitational force. </span>

Explain why semiconductors, or metalloids, deserve their name.
Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

Because their properties like conductivity, electronic configuration and ionization lies in between the metals and nonmetals.

Explanation:

There are a total of six elements that fall in the category of semiconductors.

Namely these are boron, silicon, germanium, arsenic, antimony, and tellurium.

These elements look like metals i.e. are lustrous but do not conduct electricity  so well like a metal does.

Their chemical behavior falls between that of metals and nonmetals. For example, the pure metalloids form covalent crystals like the nonmetals, but like the metals, they generally do not form mono-atomic anions.

In a particular beam of radiation, which is traveling in a vacuum, the amounts of energy per second at an ultraviolet wavelength
Darina [25.2K]

Answer: d)

Explanation: In order to justify the answer we have to consider that the energy of photons directely depent on the frequency so the energy is inverselly dependent of the wavelegth.

If both beams have the same power, this means Energy/time so the number of photons per second must be different. As consequence a) is wrong as  b) since it is not posible since UV photon  have more energy that IR photons. c) It is no necessary know the frequency since the wavelength is related in the form:

c=λν  c is the speed of light, λ the wavelegth and ν the frequency.

d) Certainly will be more more IR photons than UV photons to get the same beam power.

A big league hitter attacks a fastball! The ball has a mass of 0.16 kg. It is pitched at 38 m/s. After the player hits the ball,
Strike441 [17]
Momentum = (mass) x (velocity)
Original momentum before the hit = 
                   (0.16 kg) x (38 m/s) this way <==
               =             6.08 kg-m/s  this way <==
Momentum after the hit = 
                   (0.16) x (44 m/s) that way  ==>
               =           7.04 kg-m/s  that way ==>
Change in momentum = (6.08 + 7.04) =  13.12 kg-m/s  that way ==> .-----------------------------------------------
Change in momentum = impulse.
                                   Impulse = (force) x (time the force lasted)
                          13.12 kg-m/s  = (force) x (0.002 sec)
  (13.12 kg-m/s) / (0.002 sec)  =  Force
             6,560 kg-m/s² = 6,560 Newtons  =  Force    
                            ( about 1,475 pounds  ! ! ! )
 Hoped this helped!! ☺

An object with a mass of 2.0 kg accelerates 2.0 m/s 2when an unknown force is applied to it. What is the amount of force?
Musya8 [376]

Answer:

4 N

Explanation:

mass = 2 kg

acceleration = 2 m/s^2

Force = mass * acceleration

         = 2 *2

         = 4 N
