Gravity decreases with the square of the distance, so the new force is (20)/(2*2) = 5N.
You must observe the object twice.
-- Look at it the first time, and make a mark where it is.
-- After some time has passed, look at the object again, and
make another mark at the place where it is.
-- At your convenience, take out your ruler, and measure the
distance between the two marks.
What you'll have is the object's "displacement" during that period
of time ... the distance between the start-point and end-point.
Technically, you won't know the actual distance it has traveled
during that time, because you don't know the route it took.
The magnitude of the downward acceleration of the hollow cylinder is 6m/s^2.
Z = I α

T.R = 1/2M 5

T = 5Ma/8
Mg - T = Ma
Mg - 5Ma/8 = Ma
Mg= 5Ma/8 + Ma = 13Ma / 8
acceleration = 8g/13 = 6 m/s^2
The rate at which an object's velocity with respect to time changes is called its acceleration. The direction of the net force imposed on an item determines its acceleration in relation to that force. According to Newton's Second Law, the magnitude of an object's acceleration is the result of two factors working together
The size of the net balance of all external forces acting on that item is directly proportional to the magnitude of this net resultant force; the magnitude of that object's mass, depending on the materials from which it is built, is inversely related to its mass.

To solve the problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to Kepler's third law as well as the calculation of distances in orbits with eccentricities.
Kepler's third law tells us that

Where
T= Period
G= Gravitational constant
M = Mass of the sun
a= The semimajor axis of the comet's orbit
The period in years would be given by

PART A) Replacing the values to find a, we have




Therefore the semimajor axis is 
PART B) If the semi-major axis a and the eccentricity e of an orbit are known, then the periapsis and apoapsis distances can be calculated by
