As the distance increases, the mutual gravitational forces between two objects DEcrease. That's why you're attracted toward the Earth more strongly than toward Jupiter. Or toward the sun.

Decreases. Coulomb's Law is based on this, and it basically says, as masses move further apart, their attraction forces become weaker. So, the answer is A.

A 500 N force accelerates an object at 20 m s-2. What is its mass?

avanturin [10]

Answer: The mass of the object is 25kg.

The given question deals with Newton's second law of motion and its applications.

Explanation: Given force, F=500N

acceleration, a=20 m/ $s^{2}$

From Newton's 2nd law of motion , we have

F=ma where m=mass of the object

⇒500=m×20

⇒m=500/20=25

∴ Mass of the object is 25 kg .

The International Space Station has a mass of 1.8 × 105 kg. A 70.0-kg astronaut inside the station pushes off one wall of the st

Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

$a = 5.83 \times 10^{-4} m/s^2$

Explanation:

Since the system is in international space station

so here we can say that net force on the system is zero here

so Force by the astronaut on the space station = Force due to space station on boy

so here we know that

mass of boy = 70 kg

acceleration of boy = $1.50 m/s^2$

now we know that

$F = ma$

$F = 70(1.50) = 105 N$

now for the space station will be same as above force

$F = ma$

$105 = 1.8 \times 10^5 (a)$

$a = \frac{105}{1.8 \times 10^5}$

$a = 5.83 \times 10^{-4} m/s^2$

How will the gravitational force on a piece of the surface of the star (m1) by the mass of the rest of the star (m2) (effectivel

kiruha [24]

Answer:

Option B

Explanation:

Gravitational force is a force that attracts two bodies (with a mass) towards each other. If an object has a higher mass, the gravitational pull will be greater.

According to Newton’s inverse square law:

"The gravitational force is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between two bodies."

About this question, the greater the distance between two gravitating bodies, the weaker is the gravitational force between them.
