A planet has two moons with identical mass. Moon 1 is in a circular orbit of radius r. Moon 2 is in a circular orbit of radius 2
saw5 [17]

Answer:

Half as large.

Explanation:

Using Newton's law of universal gravitation, if the mass of the planet is <em>M</em> and of the Moons 1 and 2 is <em>m</em>, them the force exerted by the planet on them will be:

F_1=\frac{GMm}{r}

F_2=\frac{GMm}{2r}

Which clearly shows that the force that the planet exerts on the Moon 2 is half  the force it exerts on the Moon 1.

How to find the gradient of a velocity time graph
Sidana [21]
The area-

The area under the line in a velocity-time graph represents the distance travelled. To find the distance travelled in the graph above, we need to find the area of the light-blue triangle and the dark-blue rectangle.

<span><span>Area of light-blue triangle -
<span>The width of the triangle is 4 seconds and the height is 8 meters per second. To find the area, you use the equation: <span>area of triangle = 1⁄2 × base × height </span><span>so the area of the light-blue triangle is 1⁄2 × 8 × 4 = 16m. </span></span></span><span> Area of dark-blue rectangle The width of the rectangle is 6 seconds and the height is 8 meters per second. So the area is 8 × 6 = 48m.</span><span> Area under the whole graph <span>The area of the light-blue triangle plus the area of the dark-blue rectangle is:16 + 48 = 64m.<span>This is the total area under the distance-time graph. This area represents the distance covered.</span></span></span></span>
