Answer:

C. increases

Explanation:

Law of Universal Gravitation

This law establishes that bodies, by simply having mass, experience a force of attraction to other bodies with mass, called gravitational force or gravitational force.

The gravitational force between two bodies is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance that separates them.

F_{g} =G(\frac{M*m}{r^{2} } ) Formula (1)

where:

G is the universal gravitation constant, G = 6.67 · 10-11 N · m² / kg²

M and m are the masses of the bodies that interact  (kg)

r is the distance that separates them. (m)

Problem development

As objects get closer and closer the distance (r) that separates them decreases and because M, m and G remain constant, in formula (1):

F_{g} =G(\frac{M*m}{r^{2} } )

, if r decreases then Fg increases.

The bird is held in level flight due to the force exerted on it by the air as the bird beats its wings. What is the maximum valu
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

 maximumforce is F = mg

Explanation:

For this case we must use Newton's second law,

     Σ F = m a

bold indicate vectors, so we will write it in its components x and y

 X axis

       Fₓ = maₓ

 Axis y

      Fy - W = m aa_{y}

Now let's examine our case, with indicate that the bird is level, the force of the wings can have a measured angle with respect to the x axis, where the vertical component is responsible for the lift, let's use trigonometry to find the components

      Cos θ = Fₓ / F

      Fₓ = F cos θ

      sin θ = Fy / F

      Fy = F sin θ

Let's replace and calculate

      F sin θ -w = m a

 

As the bird indicates that leveling at the same height, so the vertical acceleration is zero (ay = 0)

       F sin θ = w = mg

The maximum value of this equation occurs when the sin=1, in this case

      F = mg

What is the risk when a pwc passes too closely behind another boat?
Lemur [1.5K]
The risk when a PWC (Personal Water Craft) passes too closely behind another boat is creating a blind spot. Blind spot can create a collision. 
The boat will block the view of the PWC of oncoming boats, as well as the oncoming boat's view of the PWC.So, that's why it is very important to maintain a proper lookout while turning the PWC and beware of your blind spots.

A ball on a string travels once around a circle with a circumference of 2.0 m. The tension in the string is 5.0 N. how much work
SpyIntel [72]

Answer:0

Explanation:

Given

circumference of circle is 2 m

Tension in the string T=5 N

2\pi r=2

r=\frac{2}{2\pi }=\frac{1}{\pi }=0.318 m

In this case Force applied i.e. Tension is Perpendicular to the Displacement therefore angle between Tension and displacement is 90^{\circ}

W=\int\vec{F}\cdot \vec{r}

W=\int Fdr\cos 90

W=0

A metal sphere with radius R1 has a charge Q1. Take the electric potential to be zero at an infinite distance from the sphere.
Airida [17]

Answer:

Part A :  E =   \frac{1}{4\pi}ε₀ Q₁/R₁² Volt/meter

Part B :  V =  \frac{1}{4\pi}ε₀ Q₁/R₁ Volt

Explanation:

Given that,

Charge distributed on the sphere is Q₁

The radius of sphere is R

₁

The electric potential at infinity is 0

<em>Part A</em>

The space around a charge in which its influence is felt is known in the electric field. The strength at any point inside the electric field is defined by the force experienced by a unit positive charge placed at that point.  

If a unit positive charge is placed at the surface it experiences a force according to the Coulomb law is given by

                          F = \frac{1}{4\pi}ε₀ Q₁/R₁²

Then the electric field at that point is

                                   E =  F/1

                            E =  \frac{1}{4\pi}ε₀ Q₁/R₁²  Volt/meter

Part B

The electric potential at a point is defined as the amount of work done in moving a unit positive charge from infinity to that point against electric forces.

Thus, the electric potential at the surface of the sphere of radius R₁ and charge distribution Q₁ is given by the relation

                           V =  \frac{1}{4\pi}ε₀ Q₁/R₁  Volt

When a car is 100 meters from its starting position traveling at 60.0 m/s., it starts braking and comes to a stop 350 meters fro
NISA [10]
Remember your kinematic equations for constant acceleration. One of the equations is x_{f} =  x_{i} +  v_{i}(t) + \frac{1}{2} at^{2}, where x_{f} = final position, x_{i} = initial position, v_{i} = initial velocity, t = time, and a = acceleration. 

Your initial position is where you initially were before you braked. That means x_{i} = 100m. You final position is where you ended up after t seconds passed, so x_{f} = 350m. The time it took you to go from 100m to 350m was t = 8.3s. You initial velocity at the initial position before you braked was v_{i} = 60.0 m/s. Knowing these values, plug them into the equation and solve for a, your acceleration:
350\:m = 100\:m + (60.0\:m/s)(8.3\:s) + \frac{1}{2} a(8.3\:s)^{2}\\&#10;250\:m = (60.0\:m/s)(8.3\:s) + \frac{1}{2} a(8.3\:s)^{2}\\&#10;250\:m = 498\:m +34.445\:s^{2}(a)\\&#10;-248\:m = 34.445\:s^{2}(a)\\&#10;a \approx -7.2 \: m/s^{2}

Your acceleration is approximately -7.2 \: m/s^{2}.
