Three small spheres, having masses m1 = 1 kg, m2 = 3 kg, and m3 = 4 kg, are held fixed on the x axis in deep space where the eff
Vlad [161]

Answer: F_{net} = 0.7411 N towards the mass m_{3}

Explanation: We know that the gravitational force is a long range force which is always attractive in nature.

Given that:

  • mass m_{1} = 1 kg
  • mass m_{2} = 3kg
  • mass m_{3} = 4kg

The masses are positioned on X-axis at the following points:

  • Position of mass m_{1}  x_{1} = 0
  • Position of mass m_{2}  x_{2} = 3
  • Position of mass m_{3}  x_{3} = 6

Mathematically:

<em>Gravitational force on mass </em>m_{2}<em> due to mass </em>m_{1}<em> is given by </em>

F_{21} = G \frac{m_{1}.m_{2}}{(r_{21})^2}...................(1)

  • where: (r_{21})^2= the radial distance between masses m_{2} & m_{1}=3

Similarly, g<em>ravitational force on mass </em>m_{2}<em> due to mass </em>m_{3}<em> is given by </em>

F_{23} = G \frac{m_{3}.m_{2}}{(r_{23})^2}............................(2)

  • where: (r_{23})^2= the radial distance between masses m_{2} & m_{3}=3

Now, put the respective values in the above equations.

F_{21} = 6.67 \times 10^{-11 }\times \frac{1\times 3}{3^2}

F_{21} = 2.2233\times 10^{-11} N

Again,

F_{23} = 6.67 \times 10^{-11 }\times \frac{1\times 4}{3^2}

F_{23} = 2.9644\times 10^{-11} N

∵Mass m_{2} is in the middle of the masses m_{3} & m_{1} therefore the forces  F_{23} & F_{21} will attract them in radially opposite direction.

∴F_{net} = F_{23} -F_{21} \\\\F_{net} = 2.9644-2.2233\\\\F_{net} = 0.7411 N towards the mass m_{3}

maksim [4K]

Diversity involves the inclusion of people which have various backgrounds and differences.

<h3>What is Diversity?</h3>

This involves people from a range of different social and ethnic backgrounds and of different genders, etc living in a given area at a given time.

It is best for all South Africans to accept and honour diversity as discrimination is wrong and individuals are unique and equal.
