The forces of gravity between two objects are inversely proportional to
the square of the distance between them.  So reducing the distance
by 1/2 means increasing the gravitational force by 2² = 4 times. 
The 1 million newtons becomes 4 million newtons.

Note that this does NOT mean the satellite's altitude above the surface.
When you're calculating gravitational forces, it's the distance between
the centers of the objects.  So the question is a meaningful exercise
only if we use the distance between the satellite and the planet's center.

Which scientific term is defined as the rate at which work is accomplished?
Oliga [24]

Power is the scientific term defined as the rate at which work is accomplished. Power can be seen everywhere as it is applied to our everyday living. Power is seen when one pushes a heavy cart. It could be seen when a baseball hitter hits the ball.

iron β is a solid phase of iron still unknown to science. The only difference between it and ordinary iron is that Iron β forms
saw5 [17]

Answer:

8.60 g/cm³

Explanation:

In the lattice structure of iron, there are two atoms per unit cell. So:

\frac{2}{a^{3} }  = \frac{N_{A} }{V_{molar} } where V_{molar}  = \frac{A}{\rho } an and A is the atomic mass of iron.

Therefore:

\frac{2}{a^{3} } = \frac{N_{A} * p }{A}

This implies that:

A = (\frac{2A}{N_{A} * p)^{\frac{1}{3} }  }

  = \frac{4}{\sqrt{3} }r

Assuming that there is no phase change gives:

\rho = \frac{4A}{N_{A}(2\sqrt{2r})^{3}   }

  = 8.60 g/m³

Select the properties that apply to superconductors.
makkiz [27]
made from pure metals . . . no;
they've been made from all kinds of weird compounds and alloys.
 
conduct electricity with zero resistance . . . yes;
that's why they're called "superconductors".

produce a strong magnetic field . . . possible, but not because it's a superconductor;
just like any other conductor, the magnetic field depends on the current that's flowing in the conductor.

no loss of energy in the transfer of electricity . . .
there's no loss of energy in the current flowing in the superconductor;
but if you tried to transfer the current out of the superconductor into
something else, then there would be some loss.

Help please<br> It’s kinda urgent
user100 [1]

Answer:

a = - 50 [m/s²]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we simply have to replace the values supplied in the given equation.

Vf = final velocity = 0.5 [m/s]

Vi = initial velocity = 10 [m/s]

s = distance = 100 [m]

a = acceleration [m/s²]

Now replacing we have:

(0.5)^{2}-(10)^{2} = 2*a*(100)\\0.25-10000=200*a\\200*a=-9999.75\\a =-50 [m/s^{2} ]

The negative sign of acceleration means that the ship slows down its velocity in order to land.

Why can we never prove that a hypothesis is true?
erma4kov [3.2K]
A theorem can be proven (from axioms or prior theorems), using logic.

A hypothesis can be supported by evidence. The more evidence in support of the hypothesis, the more likely the hypothesis is to be correct. However, you’re always at the mercy of contrary evidence appearing in the future, to reduce the likelihood or even invalidate a hypothesis.

A (mathematical) proof suffers no such vulnerability to future evidence, as long as you hold the axioms of the theory to be true, and as long as there was no flaw in the construction of the proof.
