Two objects have a force of gravity of 100 N. If the distance between both objects decreases by a factor of 7, while the masses
Shkiper50 [21]

The gravitational force <em>F</em> between two masses <em>M</em> and <em>m</em> a distance <em>r</em> apart is

<em>F</em> = <em>G M m</em> / <em>r</em> ²

Decrease the distance by a factor of 7 by replacing <em>r</em> with <em>r</em> / 7, and decrease both masses by a factor of 8 by replacing <em>M</em> and <em>m</em> with <em>M</em> / 8 and <em>m</em> / 8, respectively. Then the new force <em>F*</em> is

<em>F*</em> = <em>G </em>(<em>M</em> / 8) (<em>m</em> / 8) / (<em>r</em> / 7)²

<em>F*</em> = (1/64 × <em>G M m</em>) / (1/49 × <em>r</em> ²)

<em>F*</em> = 49/64 × <em>G M m</em> / <em>r</em> ²

In other words, the new force is scaled down by a factor of 49/64 ≈ 0.7656, so the new force has magnitude approx. 76.56 N.

If a mass of .343 kg moves down a 5m ramp in 5.8 seconds, what is the velocity and KE developed by the moving mass
Soloha48 [4]

Velocity 0.86m/s

0.13J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass = 0.343kg

distance = 5m

time taken = 5.8s

Unknown:

Velocity of mass = ?

Kinetic energy = ?

Solution:

Velocity is the rate of change of displacement with time. It is a vector quantity that shows magnitude and direction.

 Mathematically;

   Velocity = \frac{displacement}{time}

  Velocity  = \frac{5}{5.8 } = 0.86m/s

Kinetic energy is the energy due to the motion of a body. It is expressed mathematically as:

  Kinetic energy  = \frac{1}{2}  m v^{2}

m is the mass

v is the velocity

  Kinetic energy  = \frac{1}{2 }   x    0.343  x    0.86^{2} = 0.13J

Two advantages of solar energy over energy from Fossil fuels​
Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

1)Fuel Sourcing

2)Power Generation

Explanation:

1)Fuel Sourcing : Fossil fuels must be located, excavated and transported before they can be used. These processes are invasive and detrimental to the land through side effects such as erosion as well as ecological and geologic instability. Then the deposit or well is depleted. Energy from the sun is infinite and free. It can be harnessed and turned into power anywhere a solar panel can be mounted.

2)Power Generation: Fossil fuels must be burned to produce electricity. Burning them creates unwanted byproducts that can create air and water pollution and release huge amounts of greenhouse gasses into the atmosphere.
