The gravitational force between two objects INcreases

if either object gains mass , and also increases if the objects

are moved closer together.

Unlike the electrostatic force between charges, the gravitational

force between masses ALWAYS pulls them together, and never

pushes them apart.

C. Gravitational force between two objects of masses m1/m2

is defined by Gm1xm2/r^2, where G is a universal constant, and r is the distance between the masses. This shows you why B is wrong; it would increase. Also, A is not a good choice, as shown. In the case of B, it would increase by say, 2/1 to 4/1 by doubling ones mass. In C's case the bottom would decrease on the fraction alot (square) if they were moved closer, thus the force would be greater.

What device increases voltage?

erma4kov [3.2K]

Your answer would be C.

A step-up transformer is a transformer that raises voltage from main to secondary by having more secondary winding turns than primary winding turns.

Hope this helps; have a great day!

If a cliff jumper leaps off the edge of a 100m cliff, how long does she fall before hitting the water? (assume zero air resistan

andrew-mc [135]

<h2>Answer:</h2>

<em>Hello, </em>

<h3><u>QUESTION)</u></h3>

Assuming that the initial velocity of the jumper is zero, on Earth any freely falling object has an acceleration of 9.8 m/s².

Δt = (√2xgxh)/9,8
Δt = (14√10)/9,8
Δt ≈ 4,5 s

A wheel rotating about a fixed axis with a constant angular acceleration of 2.0 rad/s2 starts from rest at t = 0. The wheel has

irga5000 [103]

Answer:

The total linear acceleration is approximately 0.246 meters per square second.

Explanation:

The total linear acceleration ( $a$ ) consist in two components, <em>radial</em> ( $a_{r}$ ) and <em>tangential</em> ( $a_{t}$ ), in meters per square second:

$a_{r} = \omega^{2}\cdot r$ (1)

$a_{t} = \alpha \cdot r$ (2)

Since both components are orthogonal to each other, the total linear acceleration is determined by Pythagorean Theorem:

$a = \sqrt{a_{r}^{2}+a_{t}^{2}}$ (3)

Where:

$r$ - Radius of the wheel, in meters.

$\omega$ - Angular speed, in radians per second.

$\alpha$ - Angular acceleration, in radians per square second.

Given that wheel accelerates uniformly, we use the following kinematic equation:

$\omega = \omega_{o}+ \alpha\cdot t$ (4)

Where:

$\omega_{o}$ - Initial angular speed, in radians per second.

$t$ - Time, in seconds.

If we know that $r = 0.1\,m$ , $\alpha = 2\,\frac{rad}{s^{2}}$ , $\omega_{o} = 0\,\frac{rad}{s}$ and $t = 0.60\,s$ , then the total linear acceleration is:

$\omega = \omega_{o}+ \alpha\cdot t$

$\omega = 1.2\,\frac{rad}{s}$

$a_{r} = \omega^{2}\cdot r$

$a_{r} = 0.144\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}$

$a_{t} = \alpha \cdot r$

$a_{t} = 0.2\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}$

$a = \sqrt{a_{r}^{2}+a_{t}^{2}}$

$a \approx 0.246\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}$

The total linear acceleration is approximately 0.246 meters per square second.
