Explanation:

Fgravity = G*(mass1*mass2)/D².

G is the gravitational constant, which has the same value throughout our universe.

D is the distance between the objects.

so, if you triple one of the masses, what does that do to our equation ?

Fgravitynew = G*(3*mass1*mass2)/D²

due to the commutative property of multiplication

Fgravitynew = 3* G*(mass1*mass2)/D² = 3* Fgravity

so, the right answer is 3×12 = 36 units.

When two or more capacitors are connected in series across a potential difference:
34kurt

Answer:

A) and B) are correct.

Explanation:

Let's take a look at the attached picture. Now

The total voltage across both capacitors is the same as the sum of the voltage from each device, that statement is true for any electrical device connected in series. So a) is TRUE

The equivalent capacitance is going to be: \frac{1}{C_{total}}=\frac{1}{C_1} +\frac{1}{C_2}

And that value can be mathematically proven that is always less than any of the values of each capacitor. So b is TRUE

And through both capacitors flow the same current, but the amount of charge depends on the value of the capacitors, so only could be the same if the capacitors are the same value. Otherwise, don't. C) not always, so FALSE
