.is tripled,

Hello!

Recall the equation for gravitational force:
F_g = \frac{Gm_1m_2}{r^2}

Fg = Force of gravity (N)
G = Gravitational constant

m1, m2 = masses of objects (kg)
r = distance between the objects' center of masses (m)

There is a DIRECT relationship between mass and gravitational force.

We are given:
F_g = 100N

If we were to double one mass and triple another, according to the equation:
F'_g = \frac{G(2m_1)(3m_2)}{r^2} = 6(\frac{G(m_1)(m_2)}{r^2}) = 6F_g

Thus:
6 * F_g = 6 * 100 = \boxed{600N}

A jogger runs 6 km north ,5 km east then another 4km north her average speed 8 km how long will it take her to complete her run
LekaFEV [45]

The time taken to complete her run is 1.9 hr.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Speed is a scalar quantity and it is defined as the ratio of distance covered to the time taken to cover that distance. As distance is also a scalar quantity, so the directions given in the problem can be ignored. Thus, the distance covered by the jogger is the sum of kilometers given in problem.

Distance covered = 6+5+4 = 15 km

And the speed is given as 8 km/hr.

So the time taken will be ratio of distance to speed.

\text { time }=\frac{\text {distance}}{\text {speed}}=\frac{15}{8}=1.9 \text { hour }

So the jogger will take 1.9 hr to complete her run.

Why are electrons, rather than protons, the principal charge carriers in metal wires?
Ket [755]
<span>because in any atom the electrons are in the outer orbitals while protons are within the nucleus together with the neutrons. If energy is supplied electrons can jump to higher energy levels and leave the lower orbitals. 
Especially in metals the conduction band is partially filled at room temperature with allows free flow of electrons throughout the metal thus they carry charge. 
(it requires huge amounts of energy to remove a proton from the nucleus such things happen on the surface of sun).</span><span>

Explain why the moon is always half illuminated and half dark no matter where it is in the lunar cycle.
BlackZzzverrR [31]
The easiest way I know to explain it is this:

-- Take a flashlight and a ball into a dark room.

-- Turn on the flashlight and point it at the ball.

-- Half of the ball is lighted up by the flashlight, and the other half is dark.

-- There is no way you can turn or twist the ball to make more or less
than 50% of it lighted up and more or less than 50% of it dark.

<em>Everything</em> in the solar system ... as long as it's shaped like a ball ... is
half illuminated by the sun and half dark.

A square loop of wire lies in the x, y plane with opposite corners at (0, 0) and (a, a). The loop carries a current I directed t
Ket [755]

Answer:

Please refer to the figure.

Explanation:

The magnitude of the magnetic field can be found by Biot-Savart Law. We should divide the loop into four components. Each component has a similar solution but their directions are quite different.

The directions can be found by right-hand rule. Point your index finger into the direction of current, point your middle finger towards the target point (0,0,a). Your thumb will show you the direction of magnetic field.
