Which of the following graphs shows the relationship between two variables that obey the inverse square law?​

Well, if we've been paying attention in class, we already KNOW that the electrostatic force changes as the inverse square of the distance, and the top graph is conveniently labeled "Electrostatic Force".

But if we didn't already know that, we'd have to examine the graphs, and find the one where 'y' changes like 1/x² .

The top graph does that.  After 1 unit of time, the force is 350.  Double the time to 2 units, and the force should drop to 1/4 of 350 ... sure enough, it's a little less than 90.  Double the time again, to 4 units, and it should drop to 1/4 of a little less than 90 ... by golly, it's down below 30.

The first graph is what an inverse square looks like.  Now that you've worked out this graph, you'll know an inverse square relationship whenever you see it.

Marina86 [1]

Answer: Fuel is burned in engines to make the motor move.

( Chemical to Mechanical )

Explanation:

during combustion of the diesel ( when the fuel is burnt in the engine of the vehicle, the diesel ( chemical energy ) is transformed or converted to Mechanical energy. This mechanical energy is what the truck uses in moving. Without the combustion of the fuel the vehicle won’t move and the combustion of diesel is achieved through compression unlike that of fuel.

When the distance between two objects doubles, what happens to the gravitational attraction between these two objects?
Feliz [49]

Answer:

As indicated by Newton's law of attraction each article or body in the universe draws in every single item towards one another and that power of fascination is straightforwardly relative to the result of their masses and contrarily corresponding to the square of the distance between them.  

The power of gravity between two articles will diminish as the distance between them increments. The two most significant elements influencing the gravitational power between two items are their mass and the distance between their focuses. As mass increments, so does the power of gravity, however an increment in distance mirrors a reverse proportionality, which makes that power decline dramatically.  

At that point by Newton's All inclusive Law of Attractive energy;  

F=GMm/R^2  

Mm= result of the majority  

R=Distance Between the two masses by focus.  

On the off chance that R is multiplied, new force=GMm/(2R)^2  

=GMm/4R^2  

Unique Power/New Force=4/1  

F/4=New Power
