UGA EXAMPLE 1 Two students are separated in the classroom with a center to center distance of 2 m. The mass of A is 100 kg and the mass of B is 75 kg. Find the magnitude and direction of the net gravitational force acting on the students. 2 m 100 kg 75 kg F = G (m1m2 / r²) m1 = 100 kg m2 = 75 kg r = 2 m F = 6.67 x 10 –11Nm²/kg² (100kg * 75kg) / (2m)² = 1.25 E -7 N
UGA EXAMPLE 2 Two particles are separated in space with a center to center distance of 0.478 m. The mass of A is 365 kg and the mass of B is 765 kg. Find the magnitude and direction of the net gravitational force acting on the particles. 0.478 m 365 kg 765 kg F = G (m1m2 / r²) m1 = 365 kg m2 = 765 kg r = 0.478 m F = 6.67 x 10 –11 Nm²/s² (365kg * 765kg) / (.478m)² = 8.15 E -5 N
