Two objects attract each other gravitationally. If the distance between their centers decreases by a factor of 2, how does the g

kramer

Answer:

The gravitational force between them increases by a factor of 4

Explanation:

Gravitational force is a force of attraction between two objects with masses M and m which are separated by a distance R. It is given mathematically as:

Fg = GMm/R²

Where G = Gravitational constant.

If the distance between their centers, R, decreases by a factor of 2, then it means the new distance between their centers is:

r = R/2

Hence,the gravitational force becomes:

Fg = GMm/r²

Fg = GMm/(R/2)²

Fg = GMm/(R²/4)

Fg = 4GMm/R²

Hence,the gravitational force increases by a factor of 4.

What substances were found in the innermost regions (within about the inner 0.3 AUAU) of the solar system before planets began t

julsineya [31]

Answer:

Hydrogen and helium compounds.

Explanation:

We know that the solar System was formed around <u>4.6 billion years ago, </u>due to the gravitational collapse of a giant interstellar molecular cloud.

This cloud is a type of interstellar cloud and its density and size permit the formation of molecules, most commonly molecular hydrogen.

Therefore the principal substances were found before planets began to form are hydrogen and helium compounds, besides Rocks, metals, most of them in gaseous form.

I hope it helps you!

1) 9.26 cm

Explanation:

The focal length of a plane mirror is virtually infinite. Considering the lens equation,

$\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{p}+\frac{1}{q}$

where f is the focal length, p is the object distance, q the image distance. If we replace f with infinity, we get

$q=-p$

The magnification equation states that

$y' = -\frac{q}{p}y$

where y is the size of the object and y' the size of the image. Substituting q=-p, we get

$y'=y$

this means that the image produced by a plane mirror is always:

- Upright (y' is positive)

- The same size as the object

In this case, we have a book of height 9.26 cm (y=9.26 cm). This means that the magnitude of the size of the image (y') will be 9.26 cm as well.

2) 22.7 cm

As we said before, due to the infinite focal length of a plane mirror,

$q=-p$

this means that the image produced by a plane mirror is always:

- Virtual (because q is negative)

- At the same distance from the mirror as the object

In this case, we have a book placed at 22.7 cm from the mirror (p=22.7 cm). This means that the magnitude of the distance of the image from the mirror (q) will be 22.7 cm as well.

3) 1.60 m/s

We said previously that the image produced by a plane mirror is always at the same distance from the mirror as the real object. This implies that whenever we move the object toward/away from the mirror, the distance p will alway remain equal to the distance q. But this also means that the object and the distance are moving toward/away from the mirror at the same speed.

Therefore, since in this case the person is moving away from the mirror at 1.60 m/s, the image will also move away at a speed of 1.60 m/s.
