The gravitational force between two objects will be greatest in which of the following situations?

Physics
1 answer:
Kobotan [32]3 years ago
8 0

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.

Suppose you increase your walking speed from 7 m/s to 15 m/s in a period of 2 m. What is your acceleration?
likoan [24]

Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)

Change in speed = (end speed) - (start speed) = (15 m/s - 7 m/s) = 8 m/s

time for the change = 2 minutes = 120 seconds

Acceleration = (8 m/s) / (120 seconds)

Acceleration = 0.067 m/s²

) A coin is tossed 13 times. a) How many different outcomes are possible? 2^8 b) How many different outcomes have exactly 4 head
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

Explanation:

a) A coin has two sides, therefore the total outcome possible when a coin is tossed is 2 i.e Head (H) and Tail (T)

outcome of two coins will be 4 i.e 2^2

Outcome of three coins will be 8 i.e 2^3 and so on. Since its following a trend, the outcome when 'n' coins is tossed will be 2^n.

Using the general formula, the possible outcome when a coin is tossed 13 times will be "2^13"

b)

A lightbulb is rated by the power that it dissipates when connected to a given voltage. For a lightbulb connected to 120 V house
Igoryamba

Answer:

Increases, increases

Explanation:

The current is directly proportional to the voltage and inversely proportional to the resistance. The implication of this is that, whenever the voltage is increased, the current increases simultaneously. On the other hand, if the resistance is increased, the current will decrease accordingly and vice versa.

Recall that power is given by P= V^2/R where;

P= power, V= voltage and R= resistance

We can see that power and resistance are inversely related hence decreasing the resistance increases the power output of the lightbulb.

A student makes a short electromagnet by winding 300 turns of wire around a wooden cylinder of diameter d 5.0 cm. The coil is co
kupik [55]

Answer:

A) μ = A.m²

B) z = 0.46m

Explanation:

A) Magnetic dipole moment of a coil is given by; μ = NIA

Where;

N is number of turns of coil

I is current in wire

A is area

We are given

N = 300 turns; I = 4A ; d =5cm = 0.05m

Area = πd²/4 = π(0.05)²/4 = 0.001963

So,

μ = 300 x 4 x 0.001963 = 2.36 A.m².

B) The magnetic field at a distance z along the coils perpendicular central axis is parallel to the axis and is given by;

B = (μ_o•μ)/(2π•z³)

Let's make z the subject ;

z = [(μ_o•μ)/(2π•B)] ^(⅓)

Where u_o is vacuum permiability with a value of 4π x 10^(-7) H

Also, B = 5 mT = 5 x 10^(-6) T

Thus,

z = [ (4π x 10^(-7)•2.36)/(2π•5 x 10^(-6))]^(⅓)

Solving this gives; z = 0.46m =
