The position vector of the objects of masses 25 kg and 10 kg are (4,7,5)m and (1,3,5) m respectively. Obtain the vector representing the gravitational force on 25 kg object by 10 kg object. (Take G = 6.67 xx 10^(-11) Nm^(2)kg^(-2) ) |

Answer» Solution :`implies` Here , `m_1 = 25 kg , m_2 = 10 kg ` `vecr_1 = (4,7,5) m, vecr_2 = (1,3,5) m, vecF_(12) = (?)` `vecF_(12) = G(m_1m_2)/(r^2) hatr_(12) ""....(1)` `vecr_(12) = vecr_(2) - vecr_(1)= (1,3,5) - (4,7,5) = (-3, -4,0) m ` `:. r = |vecr_(12)|=sqrt((-3)^2+(-4)^2+(0)^2)=5m` and ` vecr_(12) = (vecr_(12))/(|vecr_(12)|)=((-3,-4,0))/5` `= (0.6, -0.8 ,0)` `= 0.6 HATI - 0.8 hatj` Putting this in equation (1) , `vecF_(12)=(6.67 xx10^(-11))((25)(10))/(5^2) xx(-0.6 , 0.8 , 0)` `= 6.67 xx 10^(-10)(0.6 hati - 0.8 hatj) N` |
