The scheme whereby occupants in a pair of shuttles is as follows
use a strong cable with large weight on the end
Then use the orbital naneuvering system(OMS) to set the whole work as spinning about their common center of gravity.
Newton's 2nd law of motion:
Force = (mass) x (acceleration)
Divide each side by (mass):
Acceleration = (force) / (mass)
= (100 N) / (50 kg)
= 2 m/s²
Answer:
Yes
Explanation:
Newton's law of universal gravitation is usually stated that every particle attracts every other particle in the universe with a force which is directly proportional to the product of their masses(m1 and m2) and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between their centers(r).
F = Gm1m2/r²
This is a general physical law derived from
empirical observations by what Isaac Newton called inductive reasoning.
when distance is doubled the gravitational force will be reduced by quarter not half.
