A train's velocity is slowly decreasing as it approaches a station. About 1 km before it reaches the station, several stowaways
Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

Increases

Explanation:

From Newton's second law:

F = ma

If F stays the same and m decreases, then a increases.

Therefore, the magnitude of the train's acceleration increases (the acceleration becomes more negative).

System A has masses m and m separated by a distance r; system B has masses m and 2m separated by a distance 2r; system C has mas
Anna [14]

Answer:

System D --> System C --> System A --> System B

Explanation:

The gravitational force between two masses m1, m2 separated by a distance r is given by:

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

where G is the gravitational constant. Let's apply this formula to each case now to calculate the relative force for each system:

System A has masses m and m separated by a distance r:

F=G\frac{m \cdot m}{r^2}=G \frac{m^2}{r^2}

system B has masses m and 2m separated by a distance 2r:

F=G\frac{m \cdot 2m}{(2r)^2}=G \frac{2m^2}{4r^2}=\frac{1}{2} G \frac{m^2}{r^2}

system C has masses 2m and 3m separated by a distance 2r:

F=G\frac{2m \cdot 3m}{(2r)^2}=G \frac{6m^2}{4r^2}=\frac{3}{2} G \frac{m^2}{r^2}

system D has masses 4m and 5m separated by a distance 3r:

F=G\frac{4m \cdot 5m}{(3r)^2}=G \frac{20m^2}{9r^2}=\frac{20}{9} G \frac{m^2}{r^2}

Now, by looking at the 4 different forces, we can rank them from the greatest to the smallest force, and we find:

System D --> System C --> System A --> System B

kvasek [131]

Answer:

by preventing flooding, creating reservoirs, and providing water for irrigation

Dams and waterways store and provide water for irrigation so farmers can use the water for growing crops. This idea goes way back into history. Irrigation is an important part of using water. In areas where water and rain are not abundant (like the desert), irrigation canals from rivers and dams are used to carry water.

Dams help in preventing floods. They catch extra water so that it doesn’t run wild downstream. Dam operators can let water out through the dam when needed.
