<span>Based on Newton's law of universal gravitation, the equation for the gravitational force exerted by an object on another object is given by:
F = Gm1m2/(r^2)
where G is the universal gravitational constant, F is the gravitational force exerted, m1 is the mass of the first object, m2 is the mass of the second object, and r is the separation distance between the two objects.
If the mass of both objects were doubled, then we would have: m1' * m2' = (2m1) * (2m2) = 4m1m2. Assuming r stays constant (G is a constant so that won't change anyway), then this means that the new force will be 4 times greater, ie 8N * 4 = 32N of gravitational force. </span>

The electric field 1.5 cm from a very small charged object points toward the object with a magnitude of 180,000 N/C. What is the
Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

q = 4.5 nC

Explanation:

given,

electric field of small charged object, E = 180000 N/C

distance between them, r = 1.5 cm = 0.015 m

using equation of electric field

E = \dfrac{kq}{r^2}

k = 9 x 10⁹ N.m²/C²

q is the charge of the object

q= \dfrac{Er^2}{k}

now,

q= \dfrac{180000\times 0.015^2}{9\times 10^9}

      q = 4.5 x 10⁻⁹ C

      q = 4.5 nC

the charge on the object is equal to 4.5 nC

A snowball is melting at a rate of 324π mm3/s. At what rate is the radius decreasing when the volume of the snowball is 972π mm3
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

The radius is decreasing at 4 mm/s

Explanation:

The volume of a sphere is:

V = 4/3*\pi *r^3   So, when the volume is 972π mm^3 the radius r is:

r = 9mm

Now, the change rate is given by the derivative:

dV/dt = 4/3*\pi *3*r^2*dr/dt  

Where: dV/dt = -324π mm^2/s

            r = 9mm

Solving for dr/dt:

dr/dt = -4mm/s
