The gravitational force between two object depends on their masses and on their distance.
Since the formula is
If the masses grow, the force also grows. But I'm assuming the two objects are fixed, so you can't enlarge their mass.
So, the only option remaining is to lower their distance: since it sits at the denominator, a smaller value of d results in a bigger value for F.
So, if you reduce the distance between two objects, the gravitational force between them will always result in an increase
Answer:
v = 29.4 m / s
Explanation:
For this exercise we can use the conservation of mechanical energy
Lowest starting point.
Em₀ = K = ½ m v²
final point. Higher
= U = m g h
Let's use trigonometry to lock her up
cos 60 = y / L
y = L cos 60
Height is the initial length minus the length at the maximum angle
h = L - L cos 60
h = L (1- cos 60)
energy is conserved
Em₀ = Em_{f}
½ m v² = mgL (1 - cos 60)
v = 2g L (1- cos 60)
let's calculate
v² = 2 9.8 3.0 (1- cos 60)
v = 29.4 m / s
