The drawing shows three particles far away from any other objects and located on a straight line. The masses of these particles

are mA = 363 kg, mB = 517 kg, and mC = 154 kg. Find the magnitude and direction of the net gravitational force acting on each of the three particles (let the direction to the right be positive).
Particle A is 0.5m from B and B is .25m from C... All in a astraight line

Answer:

A: 5.67*10^-5 N

B: 3.49*10^-5 N

C: -9.16*10^-5 N

Explanation:

\\A\\F_{A} = F_{BA} + F_{CA} =G*\frac{m_{b}*m_{a}}{r^2_{AB}} + G*\frac{m_{c}*m_{a}}{r^2_{AC}} \\\\= (6.67*10^(-11))*(\frac{363*517}{0.5^2} + \frac{154*363}{0.75^2})\\\\= 5.67*10^-5 N \\\\B\\\\F_{B} = -F_{BA} + F_{CB} =-G*\frac{m_{b}*m_{a}}{r^2_{AB}} + G*\frac{m_{c}*m_{b}}{r^2_{BC}} \\\\= (6.67*10^(-11))*(-\frac{517*363}{0.5^2} + \frac{517*154}{0.25^2})\\\\= 3.49*10^-5\\\\

F_{C} = -F_{CA} - F_{CB} =-G*\frac{m_{b}*m_{c}}{r^2_{BC}} - G*\frac{m_{c}*m_{a}}{r^2_{AC}} \\\\= (6.67*10^(-11))*(-\frac{517*154}{0.25^2} - \frac{154*363}{0.75^2})\\\\= -9.16*10^-5

A damped harmonic oscillator consists of a mass on a spring, with a small damping force that is proportional to the speed of the
exis [7]

Answer:

2.19 N/m

Explanation:

A damped harmonic oscillator is formed by a mass in the spring, and it does a harmonic simple movement. The period of it is the time that it does one cycle, and it can be calculated by:

T = 2π√(m/K)

Where T is the period, m is the mass (in kg), and K is the damping constant. So:

2.4 = 2π√(0.320/K)

√(0.320/K) = 2.4/2π

√(0.320/K) = 0.38197

(√(0.320/K))² = (0.38197)²

0.320/K = 0.1459

K = 2.19 N/m

What do we mean by primitive material? How can we tell if a meteorite is primitive?
zimovet [89]

Answer:

Primitive material was formed in the early stage of the solar system, before planets cooled off enough to differentiate elements of different density. It was not subject to great heat or pressure after it formed.

We can identify primitive meteorites by their composition, primitive meteorites are usually undifferentiated stones, with some metallic grains mixed in. Some primitive meteorites are darker, carbonaceous stones.

What would happen to the moon if earth stopped exerting the force of gravity on it?
Mila [183]
There are two equal forces of gravity between the Earth and the Moon.
One force pulls the Moon toward the Earth.
The other force pulls the Earth toward the Moon.

If only this gravity suddenly switched off, then the moon would
continue to orbit the Sun, very much as it does now.

If ALL gravity suddenly switched off, then . . .

-- the Moon would stop orbiting the Earth and would sail away, in
a straight line and at the speed it had when gravity disappeared;

-- the Earth would stop orbiting the Sun and would sail away, in
a straight line and at the speed it had when gravity disappeared;

-- all the gases surrounding the Earth ... which we call "air" ... would
start drifting away, and expanding into a giant cloud of gas, and stop
being an atmosphere;

-- the Sun would completely fall apart, expand into a giant cloud of gas,
and stop being a star.
