Answer:

<em>The new force is 2.8125 N</em>

Explanation:

<u>Newton’s Law of Universal Gravitation </u>

Objects attract each other with a force that is proportional to their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance.  

\displaystyle F=G{\frac {m_{1}m_{2}}{r^{2}}}

Where:

m1 = mass of object 1

m2 = mass of object 2

r     = distance between the objects' center of masses

G   = gravitational constant: 6.67\cdot 10^{-11}~Nw*m^2/Kg^2

Suppose two spheres have a gravitational force between them of F = 45 N. Now increase the distance to r'=4r. The new force F' is:

\displaystyle F'=G{\frac {m_{1}m_{2}}{(4r)^{2}}}

\displaystyle F'=G{\frac {m_{1}m_{2}}{16r^{2}}}

\displaystyle F'=\frac{1}{16}\ G{\frac {m_{1}m_{2}}{r^{2}}}

Substituting the original value of the force:

\displaystyle F'=\frac{1}{16}\ 45 N

F' = 2.8125 N

The new force is 2.8125 N

Firdavs [7]

Answer:

the decay of half of the nuclei only a half-life has passed ,  b) in rock time it is 1 108 years

Explanation:

The radioactive decay is given by

         N = N₀ e^{\lambda t}

If half of the atoms have decayed

       ½ N₀ = N₀ e^{\lambda t}

       ½ = e^{\lambda t} ₀

       Ln 0.5 = - λ t

       t = - ln 0.5 /λ

The definition of average life time is

      T_{1/2}= ln 2 / λ

       λ = ln 2 /  T_{1/2}

       λ = 0.693 / 100 10⁶

       λ = 0.693 10⁻⁸ years

We replace

       t = -ln 0.5 / 0.693 10⁻⁸

       t = 10⁸ years

We see that for the decay of half of the nuclei only a half-life has passed

b) in rock time it is 1 108 years

If you start with a substance as a solid, what will happen to the molecules as you add thermal energy (heat)?
AveGali [126]

Answer:

C. molecules speed up as more thermal energy is added

Explanation:

The molecules will simply speed up as more thermal energy is added to the solid.

Thermal energy is a form of kinetic energy which is set in motion.

  • Heat causes kinetic energy build up in a body.
  • As the molecules of the solid gains heat, they will continue to increase in thermal energy.
  • They are forced to start vibrating about their fixed point.
  • Thereafter, when they have enough energy, they break free from the forces holding them.
  • Therefore, they move from a state of rest to one with a very high kinetic energy where the molecules moves rapidly.
  • This is why a solid will change to liquid and sometimes eventually gas

Rhythms that occur faster and slower than the beat are b.<span>not synchronized with the time signature. The synchronization follows the same beat or rhythm. If the time signature say is lower than the original, then the rhythm should be faster. Otherwise, the rhythm is slower than the original one.</span>
