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>.

The energy of an electromagnetic wave changes proportionally to which
ozzi

Answer:

D. Frequency

Explanation:

The energy of an  electromagnetic wave is proportional to frequency, mathematically it is expressed as;

E ∝ f

E = hf

where;

h is Planck's constant = 6.626 x 10⁻³⁴ Js

The equation above can also be expanded to;

E = hf = h \frac{c}{\lambda}

where;

c is speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

λ is the wavelength of the electromagnetic wave

Since the speed of light is constant, we can conclude that the energy of the electromagnetic wave is directly proportional to its frequency and inversely proportional to its wavelength.

Therefore, the correct option for direct proportionality is FREQUENCY

Calculate the magnitude of the gravitational force between Goku with a mass of 62 kg and King Kai’s planet with a mass of 1.458x
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

6227.866 N

Explanation:

F = G . m(goku) . m(planet) / d²

F = 6.674 x 10-¹¹ x 62 x 1.458 . 10¹⁵ / 31²

F = 6227.866 N
