Two objects gravitationally attract with a force of 100 N. If the mass of one object is doubled and the mass of the other object
1 answer:
Hello!
Recall the equation for gravitational force:
Fg = Force of gravity (N)
G = Gravitational constant
m1, m2 = masses of objects (kg)
r = distance between the objects' center of masses (m)
There is a DIRECT relationship between mass and gravitational force.
We are given:
If we were to double one mass and triple another, according to the equation:
Thus:

Similar to an ordinary object in the uniform gravitational field near the Earth's surface, a charged item in a uniform electric field experiences a constant force and consequently experiences a uniform acceleration. The vector cross product of p and E determines the torque's direction.
If the charge is positive, the force either moves in the same direction as E or in the opposite direction (if charge is negative).
A torque is experienced by an electric dipole (p) in an even electric field (E). The vector cross product of p and E determines the torque's direction.
