(B) All objects attract other objects


To be specific, the following formula defines this theory very clearly:

F = G * (m1 * m2) / r^2

The Force is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between their centers.

pentagon [3]
If a coin is dropped at a relatively low altitude, it's acceleration remains constant. However, if the coin is dropped at a very high altitude, air resistance will have a significant effect. The initial acceleration of the coin will be the greatest. As it falls down, air resistance will counteract the weight of the coin. So, the acceleration will decrease. Although the acceleration decreases, the coin still accelerates, that is why it falls faster. When the air resistance fully counters the weight of the coin, the acceleration will become zero and the coin will fall at a constant speed (terminal velocity). So, the answer should be, The acceleration decreases until it reaches 0. The closest answer is.
a. The acceleration decreases.

A dime is placed in front of a concave mirror that has a radius of curvature R = 0.40 m. The image of the dime is inverted and t
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

distance between the dime and the mirror, u = 0.30 m

Given:

Radius of curvature, r = 0.40 m

magnification, m = - 2 (since,inverted image)

Solution:

Focal length is half the radius of curvature, f = \frac{r}{2}

f = \frac{0.40}{2} = 0.20 m

Now,

m = - \frac{v}{u}

- 2 = -\frac{v}{u}

\frac{v}{u} = 2                  (2)

Now, by lens maker formula:

\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{u} + \frac{1}{v}

\frac{1}{v} = \frac{1}{f} - \frac{1}{u}

v = \frac{uf}{u - f}            (3)

From eqn (2):

v = 2u

put v = 2u in eqn (3):

2u = \frac{uf}{u - f}

2 = \frac{f}{u - f}

2(u - 0.20) = 0.20

u = 0.30 m

In Thomson’s experiment, why was the glowing beam repelled by a negatively charged plate?
Svetllana [295]

The glowing beam was repelled by a negatively charged plate because they were negatively charged

<h3>What are the nature of charges?</h3>

The nature of charges refers to the properties of charges.

There are two types of charges:

  • negative charges
  • positive charges

The law of electricity states that opposite charges attract whereas like charges repel.

Therefor, in Thomson’s experiment, the glowing beam was repelled by a negatively charged plate because they were negatively charged

In conclusion, like charges repel while opposite charges attract.
