What you can use is coulomb's inverse square law that states that force varies inversly as the square of distance. <span>It menas that the force is calculated by dividing by distance squared. what this does is essentially as the distance doubles, the forces is reduced by a factor of 4 or can be divided by 4. Force at 0.5m=2.3328N. And brings you ti the answer</span>
If an object is in motion it will stay in motion
STEP ONE:
Let you and your friend stand as far away as possible from a large reflecting wall and clap your hands rapidly at a regular rate.
STEP TWO:
Adjust this rate until each clap just coincides with the return of an echo of its predecessor, or until clap and echo are heard as equally spaced.
STEP THREE:
Use a stopwatch to find the time between claps, t. Make a rough measurement of distance to the wall, s. Thus the speed of sound, v = 2s/t
Answer:
151.9 N
Explanation:
Force = mass x acceleration
Acceleration due to gravity is 9.8 m/s^2 (you should memorize this number).
F = ma
F = (15.5)(9.8)
F = 151.9
