There is an equation for this, and it will help us answer the question:

F = G × m₁*m₂ ÷ r²

The question already tells us the force of gravity between two objects depends on the objects' mass. Now we have to find a second factor.

Their shapes are not a secondary factor to this question.

What they are made of is not a factor to the gravitational force between the two.

Their weights have nothing to do with this either.

However, the distance does. According to the equation

F = G × m₁*m₂ ÷ r²

r² is the radius, or in other words, the distance between the two masses from their center of gravity. Therefore the distance and masses of two objects are what affect the gravitational pull between the two.

Have a nice day!

andrew11 [14]

Answer:

 "The distance between crests is 3 cm." 

Explanation:

If he writes down "The distance between crests is 3 cm." 

That means he is describing the wavelength of a wave and not longitudinal wave. He ought to write something about " direction "

Longitudinal waves are waves in which the displacement of the medium is in the same direction as, or parallel to, the direction of propagation of the wave. While

Wavelength is the distance between the two successfully Crest or trough

A Styrofoam ball has just been shot straight up. Air resistance is not negligible (free body diagram)
timofeeve [1]

In a free body diagram for an object projected upwards;

  • the acceleration due to gravity on the object is always directed downwards.
  • the velocity of the object is always in the direction of the object's motion.

An object projected upwards is subjected to influence of acceleration due to gravity.

As the object accelerates upwards, its velocity decreases until the object reaches maximum height where its velocity becomes zero and as the object descends its velocity increases, which eventually becomes maximum before the object hits the ground.

To construct a free body diagram for this motion, we consider the following;

  • the acceleration due to gravity on the object is always directed downwards
  • the velocity of the object is always in the direction of the object's motion.

<u>For instance:</u>

upward motion for velocity  ↑        downward motion for velocity  ↓

                                              ↑                                                            ↓

                                              ↑                                                            ↓

acceleration due to gravity ↓

                                             ↓

                                             ↓
