To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the equation related to the Gravitational Force, the equation describes that

$F = \frac{GMm}{r^2}$

Where,

G = Gravitational Universal Constant

M = Mass of Earth (or Bigger star)

m = Mass of Object (or smallest star)

r = Radius

From the statement we know that once the impact is made, the golf ball is subjected to the forces that are exerted in nature. Since the air resistance, which would represent the drag force, is ignored. Only the forces related to gravity remain.

The gravitational force carries 'pushes' or 'attracts' the body towards the earth, while the speed decreases as it reaches its maximum height.

When the ball has reached its maximum height only the force of gravity begins to act on it, generating the attraction to the earth in parabolic motion.

Therefore the correct answer is B.

Describe how substance move from one state to another

Mekhanik [1.2K]

The temperature rises until the water reaches the next change of state — boiling. As the particles move faster and faster, they begin to break the attractive forces between each otherand move freely as steam — a gas. The process by which a substance moves from the liquid state to the gaseousstate is called boiling.

How the forces are working?

Anarel [89]

Forces always work in the direction of their application.
Eg- Gravitational forces acts downwards due to the earth's pull.

for the same type of atom with 8 protons, 9 neutrons, and 10 electrons, what type of atom or ion is it

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

O²⁻

Explanation:

Number of protons = 8

Number of neutrons = 9

Number of electrons = 10

What type of atom or ion is it = ?

Solution:

Protons are the positively charged particle in an atom

Neutrons do not carry any charges

Electrons are negatively charged particles

For this atom, the number of protons helps to identify what specie it is; so this is an oxygen atom.

Now,

Charge = Number of protons - Number of electrons

Charge = 8 - 10 = -2

The charge on the atom is -2 and so it is an oxygen ion with -2 charge

The ion is O²⁻
