If a star collapses to a tenth its size, gravitation at its surface increases by 100 times as much.
The contraction of an astronomical object caused by its own gravity, which tends to pull stuff inward toward the center of gravity, is known as gravitational collapse. A cloud of interstellar matter gradually collapses under the influence of gravity to form a star. The temperature rises as a result of the compression brought on by the collapse until thermonuclear fusion takes place in the star's core. At this point, the collapse gradually comes to an end as the outward heat pressure equalizes the gravitational forces. Following that, the star is in a condition of dynamic equilibrium. A star will repeatedly collapse once all of its energy sources have been used up until it reaches a new equilibrium condition.

electric potential energy..electrons get the the kinetic energy from the voltage applied across the conductor
Answer:
Explanation:
Since the equation for the illumination of an object, i.e. the brightness of the light, is <em>inversely proportional to the square of the distance from the light source</em>, the form of the function is:
Where x is the distance between the object and the light force, k is the constant of proportionality, and f(x) is the brightness.
Then, if you move halfway to the lamp the new distance is x/2 and the new brightness (call if F) is :
Then, you have found that the light is 4 times as bright as it originally was.
