Which type of force occurs between two objects at a distance?
1 answer:
Answer:
Gravitational force of attraction.
Explanation:
When two bodies of masses 'm' and 'M' are separated by a distance 'r', then both the bodies experience a force of attraction towards each other. This force of attraction is called gravitational force. It is a weak force but it always act between two bodies that have mass.
The magnitude of the gravitational force is directly proportional to product of the masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the masses.
This means that as the distance between the bodies is increases, the gravitational force between the bodies decreases and vice versa.
The gravitational force of attraction is given as:

<h3>Further explanation</h3>Given
1.5 L container at STP
Heated to 100 °C
Required
The new pressure
Solution
Conditions at T 0 ° C and P 1 atm are stated by STP (Standard Temperature and Pressure).
So P₁ = 1 atm = 760 mmHg
T₁ = 273 K
T₂ = 100 °C+273 = 373 K
Gay Lussac's Law
When the volume is not changed, the gas pressure is proportional to its absolute temperature
Input the value :
P₂=(P₁.T₂)/T₁
P₂=(760 x 373)/273
P₂ = 1038.39 mmHg
