Answer:

MRCORRECT has answered the question

Explanation:

Newton realized that the reason the planets orbit the Sun is related to why objects fall to Earth when we drop them. The Sun's gravity pullson the planets, just as Earth's gravity pulls down anything that is not held up by some other force and keeps you and me on the ground.

An object in the shape of a thin ring has radius a and mass M. A uniform sphere with mass m and radius R is placed with its cent
madreJ [45]

Answer:

F = GMmx/[√(a² + x²)]³

Explanation:

The force dF on the mass element dm of the ring due to the sphere of mass, m at a distance L from the mass element is

dF = GmdM/L²

Since the ring is symmetrical, the vertical components of this force cancel out leaving the horizontal components to add.

So, the horizontal components add from two symmetrically opposite mass elements dM,

Thus, the horizontal component of the force is

dF' = dFcosФ where Ф is the angle between L and the x axis

dF' = GmdMcosФ/L²

L² = a² + x² where a = radius of ring and x = distance of axis of ring from sphere.

L = √(a² + x²)

cosФ = x/L

dF' = GmdMcosФ/L²

dF' = GmdMx/L³

dF' = GmdMx/[√(a² + x²)]³

Integrating both sides we have

∫dF' = ∫GmdMx/[√(a² + x²)]³

∫dF' = Gm∫dMx/[√(a² + x²)]³    ∫dM = M

F = GmMx/[√(a² + x²)]³  

F = GMmx/[√(a² + x²)]³

So, the force due to the sphere of mass m is

F = GMmx/[√(a² + x²)]³
