What happens when a moving object bumps into a stationary object?.

1 answer:

5 0

It depends on the mass of the moving object versus the mass of the stationary object. if the mass of the moving object is larger the stationary object will get sent into motion. if the mass of the stationary object is larger than the moving object, the stationary object will stay stationary and cause the moving object to do the same. if the two objects have the same mass, they will likely move together upon impact and then eventually come to rest.

1. When you have different masses for each sphere, how does the force that the larger mass sphere exerts on the smaller mass sph

aleksandrvk [35]

1) The forces are equal (Newton's third law of motion)

2) The force between the spheres will quadruple

3) The force of gravity exerted by the notebook on you is negligible

Explanation:

In this part of the problem, we want to compare the gravitational force exerted by the larger mass sphere on the smaller mass sphere to the force exerted by the smaller mass sphere to the larger mass sphere.

We can do this by using Newton's third law of motion, which states that:

"When an object A exerts a force (called action) on an object B, then object B exerts an equal and opposite force (called reaction) on object A"

In this problem, we can identify the larger mass sphere as object A and the smaller mass sphere as object B. This law tells us that the two forces are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction: therefore, the gravitational force exerted by the larger mass sphere on the smaller mass sphere is equal to the force exerted by the smaller mass sphere to the larger mass sphere.

The magnitude of the gravitational force between the two spheres is given by

$F=G\frac{m_1 m_2}{r^2}$
