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

Physics
1 answer:
Kobotan [32]2 years ago

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.

An electron is moving directly toward you in a horizontal path when it suddenly enters a uniform magnetic field that is either v
blagie [28]

Answer:

To your left

Explanation:

The direction of the force exerted on charged particle due to a magnetic field is given by the right-hand-rule, where:

- The index finger indicates the direction of motion of the electron

- the middle finger gives the direction of the magnetic field

- the thumb gives the direction of the force if the particle is positively charged - otherwise, the direction is reversed

in this case, we have an electron (so, a negatively charged particle):

- The direction of motion (index finger) is horizontal, toward you

- The electron begins to curve upward as it enters the field, so this means that the force exerted on the electrons is upward --> the thumb must point downward (because the electron is negatively charged)

- The index finger gives us the direction of the magnetic field: therefore, to your left.

Which of the following are homogeneous solutions?
lana [24]

Answer:

salt water, air and vinegar are homogeneous solutions.

Explanation:

A solution which consists of particles of same proportion is known as a homogeneous solution. Whereas a solution which consists of particles of different proportion is known as a heterogeneous solution.

Salt and water are homogeneous solutions as salt completely disperses in water and forms a clear solution as the particles of salt and water are in proportion.

Air is composed of different gases like nitrogen, oxygen etc are all mixed in fixed ratio. Therefore, air is a homogeneous mixture.

Sand and water are heterogeneous solution as the ration of mixing is different and more over sand particles can be separated from water. Thus, it is not a homogeneous mixture.

Vinegar is also a homogeneous solution as it is composed of acetic acid and water which are mixed in fixed proportion.

Cement is a heterogeneous mixture as it is composed of a number of different substances mixed in different proportions.

Thus, we can conclude that salt water, air and vinegar are homogeneous solutions.

what is the thickness of the central portion of a thin conveying lens can be determined very accurately by using (a) vernier cal
beks73 [17]

Option B The thickness of the central portion of a thin conveying lens can be determined very accurately by using a micrometer screw gauge.

<h3>What can be measured using a micrometer screw gauge?</h3>

One micrometer of thickness can be measured with a micron micrometre screw gauge. A Use of Micrometer Screw Gauge as like example Upon turning the screw of the micrometer screw gauge four times, a 2 mm space is covered.

<h3>What purposes does a micrometer serve?</h3>

A tool known as a micrometer is used to measure solid objects’ lengths, thicknesses, and other dimensions precisely and linearly.

<h3>What is the micrometer screw gauge’s SI unit?</h3>

The SI symbol m is also known as a micron, which is an SI-derived unit of length equaling 1106 meters, where 106 is the SI standard prefix for the prefix “micro-.” A micrometer is one-millionth of a meter.
