Answer : The correct option is, Distance

Explanation :

Gravitational force : It is a type of force that acts between the two masses which are separated by the distance.

The formula used for gravitational force is,

$F_g=G\frac{m_1m_2}{r^2}$

where,

$F_g$ = gravitational force

G = gravitational constant

$m_1$ and $m_2$ are the masses of the objects

r = distance between the two object

From this we conclude that the gravitational force decreases as the distance between two objects increases because there is an inverse relationship between the gravitational force and the distance between the two objects.

Hence, the correct option is, Distance

The electric flux through a square-shaped area of side 5 cm near a very large, thin, uniformly-charged sheet is found to be 3\ti

deff fn [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

side of square shape $a=5\ cm$

Electric flux $\phi =3\times 10^{-5}\ N.m^2/C$

Permittivity of free space $\epsilon_0=8.85\times 10^{-12} \frac{C^2}{N.m^2}$

Flux is given by

$\phi =EA\cos \theta$

where E=electric field strength

A=area

$\theta$ =Angle between Electric field and area vector

$E=\frac{\phi }{A\cos (0)}$

$E=\frac{3\times 10^{-5}}{25\times 10^{-4}\times \cos(0)}$

$E=0.012\ N/C$

and Electric field by a uniformly charged sheet is given by

$E=\frac{\sigma }{2\epsilon_0}$

where $\sigma$ =charge density

$=\frac{\sigma }{\epsilon_0}$

$\sigma =0.012\times 8.85\times 10^{-12}$

$\sigma =2.12\times 10^{-13}\ C/m^2$

A ball is dropped from the top of a building.After 2 seconds, it’s velocity is measured to be 19.6 m/s. Calculate the accelerati

zlopas [31]

Answer:

acceleration, a = 9.8 m/s²

Explanation:

'A ball is dropped from the top of a building' indicates that the initial velocity of the ball is zero.

u = 0 m/s

After 2 seconds, velocity of the ball is 19.6 m/s.

t = 2s, v = 19.6 m/s

Using

v = u + at

19.6 = 0 + 2a

a = 9.8 m/s²

What is the acceleration due to gravity on Mars?

Leona [35]

The acceleration of gravity on Mars is about 3.7 m/s². (b)

So anything located on the surface of Mars weighs about 38% of what it would weigh if it were on Earth.
