To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the Force of gravity from Newtonian theory for which it is necessary to

F = \frac{GMm}{R^2}

Where,

G = Gravitational universal constant

M = Mass of Earth

m = mass of Object

x = Distance between center of mass of the objects.

From this equation we can observe that the Force is inversely proportional to the squared distance between the two objects. The greater the distance, the lower the force of gravity and vice versa.

F \propto \frac{1}{R^2}

If you want to increase the force of gravity, you need to reduce the distance of the two. Therefore the correct option is B. Talk to the distance between them.

Anestetic [448]

Answer: the density changed, the salt dissolved in the water, the salt and the water can still be separated into their individual molecules.

Explanation: physical changes are changes in size, shape, or state. Another way to think about a physical change is any change not involving a change in the substance’s chemical identity. You cannot write a chemical equation for salt water because the chemical identity is still salt AND water

In which part of the ear are the vibrations occurring in a gas, liquid, and solid?
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

eardrum is the correct answer

hope this helps ❤️

Explanation:

Sound waves enter the ear canal and cause the eardrum to vibrate. Three small bones transmit these vibrations to the cochlea. This produces electrical signals which pass through the auditory nerve to the brain, where they are interpreted as sound.

What causes convection currents, and what do they do?
frez [133]

Answer:

Convection currents are the result of different heating. Lighter material (warm) rises while heavier (cold) material sinks. This movement of the materials is what causes convection currents! (BTW, it happens in water, in the atmosphere, and in the mantle of Earth!

Explanation:

I hope this helps a little! :)
