According to the Law of Universal Gravitation, the gravitational force is directly proportional to the mass, and inversely proportional to the distance. In this problem, let's assume the celestial bodies to be restricted to the planets and the Sun. Since the distance is specified, the other factor would be the mass. Among all the celestial bodies, the Sun is the most massive. So, the Sun would cause the strongest gravitational pull to the satellite.

A 570 kg elevator accelerates downwards at 1.5 m/s2 for the first 13 m of its motion.
jeka94
  • Mass of the elevator (m) = 570 Kg
  • Acceleration = 1.5 m/s^2
  • Distance (s) = 13 m
  • Let the force be F.
  • We know, F = ma,
  • Therefore, F = (570 × 1.5) N = 855 N
  • Angle between distance and force (θ) = 0°
  • We know, work done = F s Cos θ
  • Therefore, work done by the cable during this part
  • = (855 × 13 × Cos 0°) J
  • = (855 × 13 × 1) J
  • = 11115 J

<u>Answer</u><u>:</u>

<u>1</u><u>1</u><u>1</u><u>1</u><u>5</u><u> </u><u>J</u>

Hope you could get an idea from here.
