The gravitational force between two asteroids is 100N. What would the force be if the distance between the asteroids was cut in

half?

The gravitational forces between two masses are inversely proportional to
the square of the distance between the centers of the masses.

So if the distance between the <u>centers</u> of the asteroids is multiplied by 1/2,
then the gravitational forces between them are multiplied by ...

                         1 / (1/2)²  =  (2)²  =  4 .

The new force is  (100N)  x  (4)  =  <em>400N</em>.

A 3.00 kg mass is traveling at an initial speed of 25.0 m/s. What is the
Nitella [24]

Answer:

The magnitude of the force required to bring the mass to rest is 15 N.

Explanation:

Given;

mass, m = 3 .00 kg

initial speed of the mass, u = 25 m/s

distance traveled by the mass, d = 62.5 m

The acceleration of the mass is given as;

v² = u² + 2ad

at the maximum distance of 62.5 m, the final velocity of the mass = 0

0 = u² + 2ad

-2ad = u²

-a = u²/2d

-a = (25)² / (2 x 62.5)

-a = 5

a = -5 m/s²

the magnitude of the acceleration = 5 m/s²

Apply Newton's second law of motion;

F = ma

F = 3 x 5

F = 15 N

Therefore, the magnitude of the force required to bring the mass to rest is 15 N.

Elis [28]

Answer:

B. As the temperature increases, the kinetic energy of the molecules increases.

Explanation:

When the temperature of an object increases, the kinetic energy of its particles increases, so the thermal energy of an object increases as its temperature increases.
