the gravitational attraction between two masses varies inversely as the square of the distance between them. if the attraction f

orce between them is 75lbs when the bodies are eight feet apart, find the attraction when the masses are twelve feet apart

Answer:

  33 1/3 lb

Step-by-step explanation:

When the distance between them goes from 8 ft to 12 ft, it is 1.5 times what it was. Then the force will be multiplied by the inverse of the square of this:

  (75 lb)×1/(1.5²) = 75/2.25 lb = 33 1/3 lb

At 12 feet apart, the attraction force is 33 1/3 pounds.

Answer:

C = (2,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

B = (10 ; 2)

M = (6 ; 2)

C = (x ; y )

|___________|___________|

B (10;2)            M (6;2)             C ( x; y)

So:

dBM = dMC

√[(2-2)^2 + (6-10)^2] = √[(y-2)^2 + (x - 6)^2]

(2-2)^2 - (6-10)^2 = (y-2)^2 + (x - 6)^2

0 + (-4)^2 = (y-2)^2 + (x - 6)^2

16 = (y-2)^2 + (x - 6)^2

16 - (x - 6)^2 = (y-2)^2

Also:

2*dBM = dBC

2*√[(2-2)^2 + (6-10)^2] = √[(y-2)^2 + (x - 10)^2]

4*[(0)^2 + (-4)^2] = (y-2)^2 + (x - 10)^2

4*(16) = (y-2)^2 + (x - 10)^2

64 = (y-2)^2 + (x - 10)^2

64 = 16 - (x - 6)^2 + (x - 10)^2

48 = (x - 10)^2 - (x - 6)^2

48 = x^2 - 20*x + 100 - x^2 + 12*x - 36

48 = - 20*x + 100 + 12*x - 36

8*x = 16

x = 2

Thus:

16 - (x - 6)^2 = (y-2)^2

16 - (2 - 6)^2 = (y-2)^2

16 - (-4)^2 = (y-2)^2

16 - 16 = (y-2)^2

0 =  (y-2)^2

0 = y - 2

2 = y

⇒ C = (2,2)

When a result from a simple is extended to the population
hjlf

Answer:

You can opt to study the entire population when the population is well defined(Complete sampling frame) and small.

It can eliminate any potential bias occurring through sampling technique, but other than that it is really not justified to consume more resources and time.
