What happens to the gravitational force between two objects when the distance between them increases by 3 times?

Physics
1 answer:
quester [9]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

it decrease by 9 times

Explanation:

If the separation distance between any two objects is tripled (increased by a factor of 3), then the force of gravitational attraction is decreased by a factor of 9 (3 raised to the second power).

<h2>Answer: B. Gravitational potential energy </h2>

Explanation:

<em>The gravitational potential energy is the energy that a body or object possesses, due to its position in a gravitational field. </em>

That is why this energy depends on the relative height of an object with respect to some point of reference and associated with the gravitational force.

In the case of the <u>Earth</u>, in which  <u>the gravitational field is considered constant</u>, the value of the gravitational potential energy U_{p} will be:

U_{p}=mgh  

Where m is the mass of the object, g the acceleration due gravity and h the height of the object.

As we can see, the value of U_{p} is directly proportional to the height.

A 3.50 cm tall object is held 24.8 cm from a lens of focal length 16.0 cm. What is the image height?
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

<h2>6.36 cm</h2>

Explanation:

Using the formula to first get the image distance

1/f = 1/u+1/v

f = focal length of the lens

u = object distance

v = image distance

Given f = 16.0 cm, u = 24.8 cm

1/v = 1/16 - 1/24.8

1/v = 0.0625-0.04032

1/v = 0.02218

v = 1/0.02218

v = 45.09 cm

To get the image height, we will us the magnification formula.

Mag = v/u = Hi/H

Hi = image height = ?

H = object height = 3.50 cm

45.09/24.8 = Hi/3.50

Hi = (45.09*3.50)/24.8

Hi = 6.36 cm

The image height is 6.36 cm

Power grid
All the poles and wires you see along the highway and in front of your house are called the electrical transmission and distribution system. Today, generating stations all across the country are connected to each other through the electrical system (sometimes called the "power grid").
