Find the change in the force of gravity between two planets when the distance between them becomes 10 times smaller. g

F' = F/16

So, the force of gravity has become 16 times less than initial value.

Explanation:

The force of gravity between two planets, is given by the following formula:

F = Gm₁m₂/r²   equation 1

where,

F = Force of gravity between two planets

G = Gravitational Constant

m₁ = Mass of one planet

m₂ = Mass of other plant

r = Distance between two planets

Now, if the distance between the planets (r) is 10 times smaller, then Force of gravity will become:

F' = Gm₁m₂/(4r)²

F' = (1/16) (Gm₁m₂/r²)

using equation 1:

F' = F/16

So, the force of gravity has become 16 times less than initial value.

the force represented by vector a is normal force. if the hockey puck is moving to the right, when it is hit with a significant force by the hockey stick the puck will move off in a different direction. correct on edge.
