8 0

Explanation:

A wave is a disturbance in a medium. For example, when some pebbles are thrown in water, the water particles gets disturbed. A wave is characterized by the following parameters i.e.

Frequency

Wavelength etc

The number of oscillations or vibrations in a medium is called the frequency of a wave.

Also, the distance between two consecutive crests and troughs is called the wavelength of a wave. The relationship between the wavelength and the frequency of a wave is given by :

Speed of wave = frequency × wavelength

Particle 1 has mass 4.6 kg and is on the x-axis at x = 5.7 m. Particle 2 has mass 7.2 kg and is on the y-axis at y = 4.2 m. Part
Iteru [2.4K]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the Gravitational Force, for this purpose it is understood that the gravitational force is described as

F_g = \frac{Gm_1m_2}{r^2}

Where,

G = Gravitational Universal Force

m_i = Mass of each object

To solve this problem it is necessary to divide the gravitational force (x, y) into the required components and then use the tangent to find the angle generated between both components.

Our values are given as,

m_1 =4.6 kg\\m_2 = 7.2 kg\\m_3 = 2.6 kg\\r_1 = 5.7 m\\r_2 = 4.2 m

Applying the previous equation at X-Axis,

F_x = \frac{Gm_1m_3}{R_{1}^2}\\F_x = \frac{6.67*10^{-11}*4.6*2.6}{5.7^2}\\F_x = 2.46*10^{-11}N

Applying the previous equation at Y-Axis,

F_y = \frac{Gm_2m_3}{R_2^2}\\F_y = \frac{6.67*10^{-11}*7.2*2.6}{4.2^2}\\F_y = 7.08*10^{-11} N

Therefore the angle can be calculated as,

tan\theta = \frac{F_y}{F_x}\\\theta = tan^{-1} \frac{F_y}{F_x}\\\theta = tan^{-1} \frac{7.08*10^{-11}}{2.46*10^{-11}}\\\theta = 71\°

Then in the measure contrary to the hands of the clock the Force in the particle 3 is in between the positive direction of the X and the negative direction of the Y at 71 ° from the positive x-axis.
