Answer:
Explanation:
Gravitational law states that, the force of attraction or repulsion between two masses is directly proportional to the product of the two masses and inversely proportional to the square of their distance apart.
So,
Let the masses be M1 and M2,
F ∝ M1 × M2
Let the distance apart be R
F ∝ 1 / R²
Combining the two equation
F ∝ M1•M2 / R²
G is the constant of proportional and it is called gravitational constant
F = G•M1•M2 / R²
So, to increase the gravitational force, the masses to the object must be increased and the distance apart must be reduced.
So, option c is correct
C. Both objects have large masses and are close together.
Answer:
a) a = 4.9 m / s², N = 16.97 N and b) F = 9.8 N
Explanation:
a) For this exercise we will use Newton's second law, we write a reference system with the x axis parallel to the plane, see attached, in this system the only force we have to break down is weight, let's use trigonometry
sin 30 = Wx / W
cos 30 = Wy / W
Wx = W sin30
Wy = W cos 30
Let's write the equations on each axis
X axis
Wx = ma
Y Axis
N- Wy = 0
N = Wy = mg cos 30
N = 2.0 9.8 cos 30
N = 16.97 N
We calculate the acceleration
a = Wx / m
a = mg sin 30 / m
a = g sin 30
a =9.8 sin 30
a = 4.9 m / s²
b) For the block to move with constant speed, the acceleration must be zero, so the force applied must be equal to the weight component
F -Wx = 0
F = Wx
F = m g sin 30
F = 2.0 9.8 sin 30
F = 9.8 N
The moon, because the acceleration due to gravity is less.
