Answer:

16 times as strong

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following assumptions were made:

Initial Force (F₁) = F

Initial distance apart (r₁) = r

Final distance apart (r₂) = ¼r

Final force (F₂) =?

Next, we shall obtain a relationship between the force and the distance apart. This can be obtained as follow:

F = GM₁M₂ / r²

Cross multiply

Fr² = GM₁M₂

If G, M₁ and M₂ are kept constant, then,

F₁r₁² = F₂r₂²

Finally, we determine the new force as follow:

Initial Force (F₁) = F

Initial distance apart (r₁) = r

Final distance apart (r₂) = ¼r

Final force (F₂) =?

Fr² = F₂ × (¼r)²

Fr² = F₂ × r²/16

Fr² = F₂r² / 16

Cross multiply

16Fr² = F₂r²

Divide both side by r²

F₂ = 16Fr² / r²

F₂ = 16F

From the calculations made above, we can see that the new force is 16 times the original force.

Thus, the new force is 16 times stronger.

What happens when you turned off the gravity on the simulation?
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

If Earth suddenly lost all of its gravity, we wouldn't just start floating. ... That's because the planet would continue spinning, without exerting gravity to keep objects tied to it [source: Domanico]. A loss of gravity would also mean that the planet would stop pulling down air, water and Earth's atmosphere.

A ball is kicked from the ground into the air at a velocity of 3 m/s at an angle 35° above the horizontal and hits the ground so
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:2.45 m/s

Explanation:

Given

Launch velocity(u)=3 m/s

launch angle=35^{\circ}

as the vertical velocity first decreasing to zero and then increases to original value so its avg is zero .

v_{avg}=\frac{displacement}{time}

v_{avg}=\frac{Range}{time}

v_{avg}=\frac{u\cos \theta \times t}{t}

thus v_{avg}=\frac{3\cos 35\times t}{t}

v_{avg}=3\cos 35=2.45 m/s

Flying insects such as bees may accumulate a small positive electric charge as they fly. In one experiment, the mean electric ch
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

a) True

Explanation:

There are several possible explanations for this positive charge

* The explanation of the small positive charge in the plant when the bee approaches is like a defense system of the plants,

to prevent the bees from taking the pollen, but the flowers need the bees to transport the pollen for fertilization, so this possibility is not correct

* The air is conductive so the bee indexes a charge in the nearby air, this charge must be negative and this charge induced in the air induces a charge on the flower that must be positive.

When reviewing the different statements we have

a) True, it agrees with the second explanation of the phenomenon

b) False. The earth is a deposit of negative charge

c) false. If this is the case the charge should be negative

d) False. This residual charge from the other bees is quickly neutralized by the charge from the Earth.
