The gravitational force between two objects is 3600 n. what will be the gravitational force between the objects if the mass of each object is reduced to one-third of its original mass? 400 n 1200 n 10,800 n 32,400 n

400 N

Explanation:

The gravitational force between 2 objects follows that formula:

If we reduce the mass of EACH object to 1/3 and nothing else changes, we have this formula....

So, you see the total force is divided by 9.

So, 3600 N / 9 = 400 N

because it says use -2,0,and 2 for x, we can plug those numbers into the equation. y/4=3/4(-2)+2   y/4= -1 1/2 +2 now to get x by itself, we can multiply each side by 4. y=-6+8 which equals y=2 when x=-2. now you can do the same thing with 0 and 2 as x. you get y=8 when x=0 and y=14 when x=2.

x   |   y

-2 |   2

0   |   8

2   |   14
