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

Physics

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.

If a FM radio station broadcasts at 80. 3 MHz (megahertz), what is its wavelength in m (speed of light 3. 0 x 108 m/s)
hammer [34]

Answer:

Wavelength = 3.74 m

Explanation:

In order to find wavelength in "metres", we must first convert megahertz to hertz.

1 MHz = 1 × 10⁶ Hz

80.3 Mhz = <em>x</em>

<em>x </em>= 80.3 × 1 × 10⁶ = 8.03 × 10⁷ Hz

The formula between wave speed, frequency and wavelength is:

v = fλ  [where v is wave speed, f is frequency and λ is wavelength]

Reorganise the equation and make λ the subject.

λ = v ÷ f

λ = (3 × 10⁸) ÷ (8.03 × 10⁷)

λ = 3.74 m [rounded to 3 significant figures]

When the government sets a price for wheat that is above the equilibrium price, it is imposing a _____.
nalin [4]
<h3><u>Answer</u>;</h3>

Price floor

When the government sets a price for wheat that is above the equilibrium price, it is imposing a<u> price floor</u>.

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
  • <u>Price floors prevent a price from falling below a certain level. When a price floor is set above the equilibrium price, quantity supplied will exceed quantity demanded, and excess supply. </u>
  • <u>Price control </u>occurs when the government laws regulate prices instead of letting market forces determine prices.
  • <u>Price ceilings</u> prevent a price from rising above a certain level.

I need to explain how objects can have the same volume but different mass. Help??
kaheart [24]
No problem, and you already know all about it.

Here are a few examples of same volume / different weight:

-- A bottle full of water is heavier than the same bottle when it's full of air.
-- Stones are heavier than styrofoam chunks the same size.
-- A bowl of meat loaf is heavier than a bowl of scrambled eggs.

In each example, two things have the same volume, but one weighs more than
the other.  I didn't say anything about mass yet, but that's easy:  As long as you
keep everything on Earth, more weight means more mass.

So how come, in each example, things with the same volume have different mass ?
This was your original question.

The answer is just the simple fact that there are millions of different substances, and
each different substance packs a different amount of mass into the same volume.

The amount of mass that a substance packs into a standard volume is called
the <em>density</em> of the substance.  Meat loaf is more dense than scrambled eggs.
Stone is more dense than styrofoam.  Water is more dense than air.  And <em>gold</em>
is 19 times as dense as water.  If you have a jar that holds a pound of water, and
you pour out the water and fill the jar with gold, the same jar holds 19 pounds of gold,
because the density of gold is 19 times the density of water.

The reason you were assigned to think about this question for homework is that
next time your Physics class meets, you'll start talking about <em>Density. </em><em /> And you're
all ready for it now.
