Answer:
Because the force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance
Explanation:
The magnitude of the electrostatic force between two charged particles is given by

where
k is the Coulomb's constant
q1, q2 are the magnitudes of the two charges
d is the distance between the two charges
We observe that the magnitude of the force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance.
Therefore, when the distance changes to

The force will double:

When the truck's weight is added to the boat, the boat sinks 5 cm deeper,
and displaces additional water whose weight is equal to the weight of the
truck.
The volume of the additional displaced water is
(3.9 m) x (6.3 m) x (5.0 cm)
= (3.9 m) x (6.3 m) x (0.05 m) = 1.2285 m³ .
The weight of that much water is the weight of the truck.
Mass of 1 liter of water = 1 kilogram
1.2285 m³ = 1,228.5 liters = 1,228.5 kg of water.
Weight = (mass) x (gravity)
= (1,228.5 kg) x (9.8 m/s²) = 12,039 Newtons.
(about 2,708 pounds)
Answer:
Newton's second law of motion can be formally stated as follows: The acceleration of an object as produced by a net force is directly proportional to the magnitude of the net force, in the same direction as the net force, and inversely proportional to the mass of the object.
