what will be the gravitational force between two bodies if the mass of each is doubled and the distance between them is halved?

Physics

3 0

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

Which statement is true about a planet’s orbital motion?
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

Orbital motion results when the object’s forward motion is balanced by a second object’s gravitational pull.

Explanation:

The gravitational force is responsible for the orbital motion of the planet, satellite, artificial satellite, and other heavenly bodies in outer space.

When an object is applied with a velocity that is equal to the velocity of the orbit at that location, the body continues to move forward. And, this motion is balanced by the gravitational pull of the second object.

The orbiting body experience a centripetal force that is equal to the gravitational force of the second object towards the body.

The velocity of the orbit is given by the relation,

                                    V = \sqrt{\frac{GM}{R + h} }

Where

                   V - velocity of the orbit at a height h from the surface

                    R - Radius of the second object

                    G - Gravitational constant

                    h - height from the surface

The body will be in orbital motion when its kinetic motion is balanced by gravitational force.

                         1/2 mV^{2} = GMm/R

Hence, the orbital motion results when the object’s forward motion is balanced by a second object’s gravitational pull.

Use the graph below to answer the following question: What is happening to the object's velocity?
hjlf

The object's velocity is decreasing.

Explanation:

From graph is the attached image, we can clearly point that the velocity of this motion is decreasing with time.

Velocity is a vector quantity.

  • The y-axis represent displacement.
  • The x-axis depicts time
  • Using the graph, we know that the slope of the line on the graph gives us the velocity as it denotes the change of displacement with time.
  • When we find the slope, it will give us a negative value which shows that the body is slowing down and not increasing speed.

infrared radiation from young stars can pass through the heavy dust clouds surrounding them, allowing astronomers here on earth
Mashcka [7]

The wavelength of the infrared radiation is  λ = 3.174×10^{-5}m.

<h3>What is infrared radiation?</h3>

An infrared telescope is tuned to detect infrared radiation with a frequency of 9.45 THz.

We know that,

1 THz = 10¹² Hz

So,

f = 9.45 × 10¹² Hz

We need to find the wavelength of the infrared radiation.

λ=c/f

λ = 3×10^{8}/9.45×10^{12}

λ = 3.174 ×10^{-5} m

The term "infrared radiation" (IR) refers to a part of the electromagnetic radiation spectrum with wavelengths between about 700 nanometers (nm) and one millimeter (mm). Longer than visible light waves but shorter than radio waves are infrared waves.

Electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths longer than those of visible light is known as infrared, also known as infrared light. Since it is undetectable to the human eye, The typical range of wavelengths considered to be infrared (IR) is from about 1 millimeter to the nominal red edge of the visible spectrum, or about 700 nanometers.
