When distance<span> is increased the amount of </span>force<span> needed will depend on the </span>mass<span> of the object. </span>
Answer:
20m/s due east
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Displacement eastward = 200m
Time = 10s
Unknown:
Velocity = ?
Solution:
Velocity is the displacement divided by time;
Velocity = 
Velocity = 
= 20m/s due east
The gravitational force is inversely proportional to squared distance.
This means when the distance between the objects is increased, the gravitational force reduces.
1600 = k/d². where k is constant.
k=1600d²
When d is doubled, the gravitational force, F,
F = 1600d²/(2d)²
F = 400 N
Whenever a net force acts on an object, it means object is under acceleration which implies that there is change in the object's velocity.
