If the mass of the star were doubled what effect would this have on the gravitational attraction between the star and its planet?
Gravity would be increased by one.
What is the effect of mass on the gravitational attraction between objects?
If there is more mass, there will be more gravitational attraction.
A star has a planet held in orbit by gravitational attraction If the distance between the star and the planet were 3 times as great what effect would this have on their gravitational attraction for?
The gravitational attraction would b 9 times weaker because gravity is dependent on the inverse square of the distance.
If the distance between the star and planet were 3 times as great what effect would this have on their gravitational attraction for each other Explain?
The gravitational attraction would be 9 times weaker, this is because gravity is dependent on the inverse square of the distance.
If the distance between the star an planet were 3 times as great what effect would this have on heir gravitational attraction for eachothe?
If the distance between two masses is tripled, then the gravitational force between them becomes (1/32) = 1/9th as great as it started out.
If the mass of the star were doubled what effect would this have on the gravitational attraction between the star and its planet?
Gravity would be increased by one.
What is the effect of mass on the gravitational attraction between objects?
If there is more mass, there will be more gravitational attraction.
Does distance between objects effect the gravitational attraction between them?
Yes. At a greater distance, the gravitational attraction between two objects is less.
What effect would increasing the mass of two object have on gravitational attraction between them?
the gravitational attraction would increase, because the more mass something has the more gravitational pull it has.
Mass and air resistance affect the gravitational attraction between objects true or false?
This is false. The answer is that mass and distance affect the gravitational attraction between objects. Air resistance has no effect on this.
When the masses are doubled and separation is halved what effect do they have on the gravitational force between the masses?
The effect of dubling the massesa and halving the distance is to increase the gravitational force by a factor of 16.
A star has a planet held in orbit by gravitational attraction If the distance between the star and the planet were 3 times as great what effect would this have on their gravitational attraction for?
The gravitational attraction would b 9 times weaker because gravity is dependent on the inverse square of the distance.
How does distance between two objects affect the way they move?
If the objects are not tied together, and if the gravitational forces between them are negligible in their current environment, then the distance between them has no effect whatsoever on their motion.
What effect would increasing the distance between objects have on their gravitational attraction to each other?
As you move two objects away from each other their gravitational attraction gets weaker. Kind of like the bluetooth on phones :D
What effect would decreasing the distance between two objects have on the gravitational attraction to each other?
the force will remain the p
If the distance between the star and planet were 3 times as great what effect would this have on their gravitational attraction for each other Explain?
The gravitational attraction would be 9 times weaker, this is because gravity is dependent on the inverse square of the distance.
How gravity affect objects through gas?
Gravity doesn't care what, if anything, is in the space between the objects. Whatever it is has no effect on the mutual gravitational forces of attraction between them. There's no such thing as "gravitational shielding".
