Since, F = k . ∆x

Therefore, k = F / ∆x = 250 / 0.2 = 1250 N/m

(ps: convert 20 cm into 0.2 m)

Topic Gravitational force amd firld strength.. help me please

I am Lyosha [343]

The gravitational force between m₁ and m₂ has magnitude

$F_{1,2} = \dfrac{Gm_1m_2}{x^2}$

while the gravitational force between m₁ and m₃ has magnitude

$F_{1,3} = \dfrac{Gm_1m_3}{(15-x)^2}$

where x is measured in m.

The mass m₁ is attracted to m₂ in one direction, and attracted to m₃ in the opposite direction such that m₁ in equilibrium. So by Newton's second law, we have

$F_{1,2} - F_{1,3} = 0$

Solve for x :

$\dfrac{Gm_1m_2}{x^2} = \dfrac{Gm_1m_3}{(15-x)^2} \\\\ \dfrac{m_2}{x^2} = \dfrac{m_3}{(15-x)^2} \\\\ \dfrac{(15-x)^2}{x^2} = \dfrac{m_3}{m_2} = \dfrac{60\,\rm kg}{40\,\rm kg} = \dfrac32 \\\\ \left(\dfrac{15-x}x\right)^2 = \dfrac32 \\\\ \left(\dfrac{15}x-1\right)^2 = \dfrac32 \\\\ \dfrac{15}x - 1 = \pm \sqrt{\dfrac32} \\\\ \dfrac{15}x = 1 \pm \sqrt{\dfrac32} \\\\ x = \dfrac{15}{1\pm\sqrt{\dfrac32}}$

The solution with the negative square root is negative, so we throw it out. The other is the one we want,

$x \approx 6.74\,\mathrm m$

if the mass of the objects stays the same and their distance from eachother decreases, then the force of gravity between the two

dedylja [7]

Then the force of gravity between them would be quadrupled and so on but the gravitational force is inversely proportional to the square of the separation distance between the two interacting objects which makes more separation distance will result in weaker gravitational forces
