Answer:

    \frac{F}{F_o} = 1.2 10⁻²

force of attraction of the sun decreases by a factor of 1.2 10⁻² times

Explanation:

The force of gravity is given by the universal law of attraction

          F = G m Ms / r²

where m is the mass of the Earth, Ms the mass of the Sun and r the distance from the Earth to the Sun

for the initial orbit

          F₀ = G m Ms / R₀²

for one orbit

          R = 9R₀

         F = G \frac{m M_s}{ ((9R_o)^2}

         F = G \frac{m M_s}{81 \  R_o^2}

we substitute

         F = F₀ / 81

         \frac{F}{F_o} = 1.2 10⁻²

therefore the force of attraction of the sun decreases by a factor of 1.2 10⁻² times

What are challenges of securing a crime scene
kotegsom [21]

At any crime scene, the two greatest challenges to the physical evidence are contamination and loss of continuity.

<h3>What is the meaning of physical evidence?</h3>

In evidence law, physical evidence (also called real evidence or material evidence) is any material object that plays some role in the matter that gave rise to the litigation, introduced as evidence in a judicial proceeding (such as a trial) to prove a fact in issue based on the object's physical characteristics.

The two types of evidence at crime scenes:

Biological evidence (e.g., blood, body fluids, hair and other tissues)

Latent print evidence (e.g., fingerprints, palm prints, footprints)

The biggest impediment to an investigation is the removal or loss of a piece of evidence from the scene of a crime.

Hence, at any crime scene, the two greatest challenges to the physical evidence are contamination and loss of continuity.
