Question

HELP ME

Compare and Contrast Electromagentic and Gravitational force. You need to provide two ways that they are alike and two ways that they are different.

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

alike

no contact with the object itself

they can attract objects

they're between 2 objects

difference

source of foundations

type of forces

gravity is only for huge objects

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Electromagnetic and gravitational forces have equations that clearly describe them.

Electromagnetic Fe = K q₁ q₂ / r²

Gravitational Fg = G m₁ m₂ / r²

Analyzing these expressions a bit we can see some things in which they are EQUAL:

• They depend on the inverse of the squared distance

• They are long range, they become zero In the infinite

• They are proportional to a system constant, in one case the charge and in the other the mass

We can also observe some DIFFERENCES:

• Gravitational always attractive, the electric can be attractive or repulsive depending on the charge

• When we calculate their magnitudes the electric force in 10 40 times greater than the gravitational

* The electric force can be zero if the charge is zero, the gravitational force can never be zero
