Answer:

d = 175 miles

Explanation:

Train is moving towards East with constant speed of 50 mph

While car is moving at speed of 30 mph

so after t = 3 hours

the distance moved by the train is given as

d_1 = vt

d_1 = (50)(3) = 150 miles

at the same time the distance moved by the car is given as

d_2 = 30(3) = 90 miles

now we know that both car and train is moving perpendicular to each other

So the distance between them after t = 3 hours is given as

d= \sqrt{d_1^2 + d_2^2}

d = \sqrt{150^2 + 90^2}

d = 175 miles

Which of the following statements are true? Check all that apply. Check all that apply. The gravitational force between two obje
uysha [10]

Explanation:

The gravitational force between two objects is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. Mathematically, it is given by :

F\propto \dfrac{m_1m_2}{r^2}

F=G \dfrac{m_1m_2}{r^2}...............(1)

Where m₁ and m₂ are masses

r is the distance between them

It is clear from equation (1) that :

1. The gravitational force between two objects is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the two objects.

2. The gravitational force between two objects is proportional to the product of the masses of the two objects.

Hence, this is the required solution.

Skater 1 has a mass of 45 kg and is at rest. Skater 2 has a mass of 50 kg and is moving slowly at a constant velocity of 3.2 m/s
algol13

Answer:

None

Explanation:

Force, F is given by ma where m is the mass of an object and a is acceleration

Acceleration is the rate of change in velocity per unit time. Since skaters with mass of 75 kg and 50 kg are moving at a constant speed, there is no acceleration hence F=50*0=0 and F=75*0=0

For skater of 45 kg, he is at rest to mean the initial and final velocitu of the skater is zero hence no acceleration, the force will be 45*0=0

Therefore, none of the skaters will experience a greater net force.
