Answer:

The gravitational force b) Increases with increase in mass.

Explanation:

The gravitational force between two objects is given by

F=G\frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2}F=Gr2m1m2

where

G is the gravitational constant

m1, m2 are the masses of the two objects

r is the separation between the objects

From the equation, we notice that:

- The force is proportional to the masses, m1 and m2: so, if the masses increase, the force will increase, and if the masses decrease, the force will decrease

- The force is inversely proportional to the distance between the masses, r: so, if the distance increases, the force will decreases, and if the distance decreases , the force will increases

Therefore, the correct options is only:

Increases with increase in mass

If the equation of an average velocity of a sport car was given by the equation V(t) = 3t^2 -6t +24. Determine its displacement

alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

Explanation:

The displacement of an object can be found from the velocity of the object by integrating the expression for the velocity.

In this problem, the velocity of the sport car is given by the expression

$v(t)=3t^2-6t+24$

In order to find the expression for the position of the car, we integrate this expression. We find:

$x(t)=\int v(t) dt=t^3-3t^2+24t+C$

where C is an arbitrary constant.

Here we want to find the displacement after 3 seconds. The position at t = 0 is

$x(0)=0^3-0+0+C=C$

While the position after t = 3 s is

$x(3)=3^3-3(3)^2+24(3)+C=72+C$

Therefore, the displacement of the car in 3 seconds is

$d=x(3)-x(0)=72+C-C=72$

A certain lightning bolt moves 50.0 C of charge. How many units of fundamental charge is this?

liubo4ka [24]

Answer: There are number of electrons.
Explanation:
We are given 50 Coulombs of charge and we need to find the number of electrons that can hold this much amount of charge. So, to calculate that we will use the equation:

where,
n = number of electrons
Charge of one electron =
Q = Total charge = 50 C.
Putting values in above equation, we get:

Hence, there are number of electrons.
