Answer:
1. A ruler is a common instrument used for measuring the length of small objects
2. The acceleration due to gravity at the surface of Earth is about 9.8 metres per second per second.
A law stating that electric current is proportional to voltage and inversely proportional to resistance.
Answer:
16 times as strong
Explanation:
From the question given above, the following assumptions were made:
Initial Force (F₁) = F
Initial distance apart (r₁) = r
Final distance apart (r₂) = ¼r
Final force (F₂) =?
Next, we shall obtain a relationship between the force and the distance apart. This can be obtained as follow:
F = GM₁M₂ / r²
Cross multiply
Fr² = GM₁M₂
If G, M₁ and M₂ are kept constant, then,
F₁r₁² = F₂r₂²
Finally, we determine the new force as follow:
Initial Force (F₁) = F
Initial distance apart (r₁) = r
Final distance apart (r₂) = ¼r
Final force (F₂) =?
Fr² = F₂ × (¼r)²
Fr² = F₂ × r²/16
Fr² = F₂r² / 16
Cross multiply
16Fr² = F₂r²
Divide both side by r²
F₂ = 16Fr² / r²
F₂ = 16F
From the calculations made above, we can see that the new force is 16 times the original force.
Thus, the new force is 16 times stronger.
Answer: A difference in properties between two interacting systems as explained below.
Explanation: Planetary differentiation is the process of separation of different parts of a planetary body as a result of their physical or chemical behavior.
Causes for Physical Differentiation:
1. Melting and crystallization of source rock.
2. Differences in densities
3. Thermal diffusion
4. Collision of large bodies
Chemical Differentiation accounts for differences in chemical compositions of different materials.
The differentiation, or organization, of the Earth into layers led to the formation of a core, a crust, and eventually continents. The light elements were driven from the interior to form an ocean and atmosphere.
