Answer:

Gravitational force will be 16 times more.

Explanation:

we know;

Gravitational force (F) = (Gm1m2)/d^2

when mass of each is doubled and distance between them is halved;

F= (G2m1×2m2)/(d/2)^2

=(4Gm1m2)/(d^2/4)

=4×4(Gm1m2)/d^2

=16(Gm1m2)/d^2

=16F

A 20 kg object is dropped from a very tall building. What is the weight of this objects? After 5 seconds, how has the object fal
prohojiy [21]

1. What is the weight of this objects?

Weight is simply the product of mass and gravitational acceleration. Therefore the weight is:

w = 20 kg * 9.81 m/s^2

w = 196.2 kg m/s^2 = 196.2 N

 

2. After 5 seconds, how has the object fallen and what is its speed at this instant?

We can use the formula:

<span>y = v0 t  + 0.5 g t^2</span>

v = v0 + g t

where v0 = 0 since the object starts from rest, y is the distance it fell, t is time

y = 0 + 0.5 * 9.81 * 5^2 = 122.625 m

<span>v = 0 + 9.81 * 5 = 49.05 m/s</span>

The speed of light in a vacuum is 3 x 108 miles/hour. true/false?
GarryVolchara [31]
I'm guessing they rounded because it is technically 2.998 X 108 miles/hour

so I would go with true!

A hamster eats a carrot before using its hamster wheel. The hamster wheel is connected to a generator which powers a light bulb.
Andrei [34K]

Answer: Chemical → Mechanical → Electrical → Radiant

Explanation:

First, the Hamster eats the carrot, then the hamster is getting chemical energy.

Now the hamster starts using his wheel, then he "transforms" the chemical energy into mechanical energy.

Now the mechanical energy is connected to a generator, this means that the mechanical energy (the rotation of the wheel) is being converted into electrical energy.

And we know that there is a light bulb powered by this electrical energy, then we have electrical energy being transformed into radiant energy.

Then the correct option is:

Chemical → Mechanical → Electrical → Radiant
