Answer:

Explanation:

The quantity that must be squared in the equation of gravitational force is distance d.

According to the universal gravitational law, the square of the distance between two objects is inversely proportional to the force of gravity.

Therefore, the quantity to be squared is d

The formula is given as:

Fg = $\frac{G m_{1} m_{2} }{d^{2} }$

So d is the quantity that must be squared

Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

please give me brainlist and follow

Explanation:

The measuring sensitivity of liquid-in-glass thermometers increases with the amount of liquid in the thermometer. The more liquid there is, the more liquid will expand and rise in the glass tube. For this reason, liquid thermometers have a reservoir to increase the amount of liquid in the thermometer.

Suppose you wanted to hold up an electron against the force of gravity by the attraction of a fixed proton some distance above i

SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

The value is $r = 5.077 \ m$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The Coulomb constant is $k = 9.0 *10^{9} \ N\cdot m^2 /C^2$

The charge on the electron/proton is $e = 1.6*10^{-19} \ C$

The mass of proton $m_{proton} = 1.67*10^{-27} \ kg$

The mass of electron is $m_{electron } = 9.11 *10^{-31} \ kg$

Generally for the electron to be held up by the force gravity

Then

Electric force on the electron = The gravitational Force

i.e

$m_{electron} * g = \frac{ k * e^2 }{r^2 }$

$\frac{9*10^9 * (1.60 *10^{-19})^2 }{r^2 } = 9.11 *10^{-31 } * 9.81$

$r = \sqrt{25.78}$

$r = 5.077 \ m$

A 54.0 kg ice skater is gliding along the ice, heading due north at 4.10 m/s . The ice has a small coefficient of static frictio

lesya [120]

Answer:

a. 2.668 m/s

b. 0.00494

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

a. As we know that

$W = F\times d$

$KE = 0.5\times m\times v^2$

As the wind does not move the skater to the east little work is performed in this direction. All the work goes in the direction of the N-S. And located in that direction the component of the Force.

F = 3.70 cos 45 = 2.62 N

$W = F \times d = 2.62 N \times 100 m$
