<h3>Hi!</h3>

The answer would be B. Lower.

Explanation:

This is because Force between two bodies is directly proportional to the mass of an object, but inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.

So if the mass of the moon becomes twice, the force would also be twice as strong. (2 F ) , but if the distance is doubled, this force (2 F ) would be quartered ( 2F/4 = F/2 ) which would be half of the original force F.

Hence if the force is halved, the tides would be lower.

<h3>Hope this helps!</h3>

Answer:

C) Burmese pythons lack natural predators and can utilize a wide variety of food sources in the Everglades.

Explanation:

Due to it being an invasive specie (naturally found in South Asia), and also one of the five largest species of snakes in the world, the Burmese pythons lack natural predators in this new territories.

The Burmese viper is also an opportunistic hunter and would eat anything it can overpower, it easily made a wide range of food varieties in these swamps.

If a proton and an electron are released when they are 7.00×10−10 m apart (typical atomic distances), find the initial accelerat
Ugo [173]

Answer:

The acceleration of the proton is 2.823 x 10¹⁷ m/s²

The acceleration of the electron is 5.175 x 10²⁰ m/s²

Explanation:

Given;

distance between the electron and proton, r = 7 x 10⁻¹⁰ m

mass of proton, m_p = 1.67 x 10⁻²⁷ kg

mass of electron, m_e = 9.11 x 10⁻³¹ kg

The attractive force between the two charges is given by Coulomb's law;

F = \frac{k(q_p)(q_e)}{r^2}

where;

k is Coulomb's constant = 9 x 10⁹ Nm²/c²

F = \frac{k(q_p)(q_e)}{r^2} \\\\F = \frac{(9*10^9)(1.602*10^{-19})(1.602*10^{-19})}{(7*10^{-10})^2} \\\\F = 4.714 *10^{-10} \ N

Acceleration of proton is given by;

F = ma

F = m_pa_p\\\\a_p = \frac{F}{m_p}\\\\a_p = \frac{4.714*10^{-10}}{1.67*10^{-27}}\\\\a_p = 2.823 *10^{17} \ m/s^2

Acceleration of the electron is given by;

F = m_ea_e\\\\a_e = \frac{F}{m_e}\\\\a_e = \frac{4.714*10^{-10}}{9.11*10^{-31}}\\\\a_e = 5.175 *10^{20} \ m/s^2
