Which statements are true concerning Newton's law of gravitation? The gravitational force is related to the mass of each object.

The gravitational force on a satellite is less at an altitude of 500 km above the Earth than at an altitude of 1000 km. A large and a small object are gravitationally attracted to each other. The magnitude of the gravitational force on the larger object is greater than on the smaller. The gravitational force is an attractive force. The gravitational force between the Earth and a person is constant, no matter how high the person is above the surface of the Earth.

Answer:

The gravitational force is related to the mass of each object.

The gravitational force is an attractive force.

Explanation:

Gravitational force is a long range force of attraction between any two masses.

Mathematically given as :

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

where:

m_1 & m_2 are the masses

r= distance between the center of mass of the two objects.

G= gravitational constant = 6.67\times 10^{-11} m^3.kg^{-1}.s^{-2}

From the above relation of eq. (1) it is clear that,

Gravitational force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance and directly proportional to the masses.

The mass of an object is independent of its size due to the fact that density may vary for different objects.

The force of gravity varies with height as:

\frac{g}{g_x} =(\frac{r_x}{r} )^2

where:

g=9.8\,m.s^{-2}

g_x= gravity at height r_x of the center of mass of the object from the center of mass of the earth.

and we know that force:

F=m\times g

where: m= mass of the object.

Which of the following would most likely be considered nonpoint source pollution
fredd [130]
The best answer is b) increased turbidity from erosion.

Nonpoint source pollution generally happens as a result of many systems interacting, and is not directly attributed to one event or pollutant. Generally, natural environmental systems participate in pollution of this kind, regardless of whether or not human activity was a factor. Examples include water runoff, or erosion. 

The other pollutants listed have a direct cause and direct effect, the animal waste goes directly from the animals to the ground they live on, the car shop directly sumps the oil on the ground, and the oil tank leaks directly into the earth. Erosion causing turbidity is a less direct form of pollution, and is due to the synthesis of several natural phenomena<span />
