If the distance between two masses is tripled, the gravitational force between changes by a factor of:_______
adell [148]

Answer:

option A

Explanation:

given,

distance between two masses is doubled

new distance, r' = 3 r

using gravitational force equation

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

new gravitational force

F' = \dfrac{GMm}{r'^2}

now from the given condition

F' = \dfrac{GMm}{(3r)^2}

F' = \dfrac{GMm}{9r^2}

F' = \dfrac{1}{9}\dfrac{GMm}{r^2}

now, from equation (1)

F' = \dfrac{1}{9}F

\dfrac{F'}{F} = \dfrac{1}{9}

now, the change in gravitational force factor is equal to \dfrac{1}{9}

Hence, the correct answer is option A

In his famous experiment, Rutherford fired alpha particles at a thin gold film. Most of the alpha particles went through the fir
ale4655 [162]

Answer:

1. The nucleus is about 1/2 the size of the atom

Explanation:

Alpha particles are positive charge particles and they are bounced back by the nucleus because nucleus is also same size

Now in present experiment Rutherford found that very few alpha particles are bounced back along same path which shows that very small region inside the nucleus is having positive charge and rest part of the atom is empty.

Now if we found that half of the alpha particles are bounced back then it shows that size of the nucleus is very large now as compare to previous one because only nucleus can bounce back the alpha particles

so correct answer will be

1. The nucleus is about 1/2 the size of the atom
