We're happy that you're asking for the "displacement", because displacement is simply the straight-line distance between the start-point and end-point, and we don't care about any of the motions or gyrations along the way.
From the graph:
-- The location of the object at time-zero, when time begins, is 10 meters.
-- The location of the object after 6.0 seconds is 4 meters.
-- The distance between the start-point and end-point is
(final location) - (initial location)
-- So Displacement = (4 meters) - (10 meters)
<em>Displacement = -6 meters</em>
Answer:
OPTION A is the correct answer
By Newton's Law of Universal Gravitation.
F = GMm/r²
Where F is Force of Gravitation, M = Mass of first object, m = mass of second object, r = distance of separation
From the formula, you can see that if the masses, M and m, increased, the value of F would definitely increase as well.
And if r increased the value of F would be reduced because you would be dividing by a bigger number, but when the value of r is decreased the value of F would be increased, because you would then be dividing by something smaller. Note the r is at the denominator of the formula.
So F would increase if there was increase in Masses and decrease in distance.
So the answer is C. a and b.
