What happens to the force of gravity between two masses if the mass of one of the objects decreases?

It increases

Explanation:

The force of gravity depends directly upon the masses of the two objects, and inversely on the square of the distance between them. This means that the force of gravity increases with mass, but decreases with increasing distance between object

If a system has 225 kcal of work done to it, and releases 5.00 × 102 kj of heat into its surroundings, what is the change in int
vovikov84 [41]

We can solve the problem by using the first law of thermodynamics:

\Delta U = Q-W

where

\Delta U is the change in internal energy of the system

Q is the heat absorbed by the system

W is the work done by the system on the surrounding


In this problem, the work done by the system is

W=-225 kcal=-941.4 kJ

with a negative sign because the work is done by the surrounding on the system, while the heat absorbed is

Q=-5 \cdot 10^2 kJ=-500 kJ

with a negative sign as well because it is released by the system.


Therefore, by using the initial equation, we find

\Delta U=Q-W=-500 kJ+941.4 kJ=441.4 kJ

A wire is stretched between two posts. Another wire is stretched between two posts that are twice as far apart. The tension in t
Margarita [4]

Answer: 996m/s

Explanation:

Formula for calculating velocity of wave in a stretched string is

V = √T/M where;

V is the velocity of wave

T is tension

M is the mass per unit length of the wire(m/L)

Since the second wire is twice as far apart as the first, it will be L2 = 2L1

Let V1 and V2 be the speed of the shorter and longer wire respectively

V1 = √T/M1... 1

V2 = √T/M2... 2

Since V1 = 249m/s, M1 = m/L1 M2 = m/L2 = m/2L1

The equations will now become

249 = √T/(m/L1) ... 3

V2 = √T/(m/2L1)... 4

From 3,

249² = TL1/m...5

From 4,

V2²= 2TL1/m... 6

Dividing equation 5 by 6 we have;

249²/V2² = TL1/m×m/2TL1

{249/V2}² = 1/2

249/V2 = (1/2)²

249/V2 = 1/4

V2 = 249×4

V2 = 996m/s

Therefore the speed of the wave on the longer wire is 996m/s

An agriculturalist working with Australian pine trees wanted to investigate the relationship between the age and the height of t
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

The correct answer is B.

Explanation:

Step 1:

The available regression equation is: Predict height= 0.29 + 0.48 (age).

Here, the predict height is dependent variable and the  age is in-dependent variable.

Intercept = 0.29

Slope      = 0.48

The given regression equation indicates the y on x model and the intercept coefficients of the regression equation is 0.29 and the slope is 0.48.

Step 2:

The height increases, an average, by 0.48 m per year.

Because co-efficient of slope variable indicate the positive sign and we increase 1 year in age then automatically height increased is 0.48 m.

<h3></h3><h3>The height increases, on average, by 0.48 meter each year.</h3>
