Relationship between mass and weight • Your weight (on earth) is the force felt between you and earth • There are two ways to calculate the force of weight • Using the mass of two objects, distance between, and G Bob : m1= 89 kg d = Earths radius = 6.4 x 106 m Earth : m2= 6.0 x 1024 kg
Relationship between mass and weight 2. Using the mass of one if g (the acceleration due to gravity) is known Bob : m1= 89 kg
Newton's Law of Universal Gravity • The force of gravity is universal • All things in the universe are attracted to all other things with mass.
Ok its more like this • Newton's law of universal gravitation is not as romantic
Gravity is the weakest fundamental force • It can only be felt when you have an object or objects with substantial mass
Gm1m2 d2 Fg = Newton's Law of Universal Gravity • This equation relates mass and distance to force
Gm1m2 d2 Fg= Newton's Law of Universal Gravity Force of Gravity Fg
Gm1m2 d2 Fg= Newton's Law of Universal Gravity Mass of object 1 Mass of object 2
Gm1m2 d2 Fg= Newton's Law of Universal Gravity Mass is directly proportional to Fg: If either of the masses increase the overall Fg will go up
Gm1m2 d2 Fg= Newton's Law of Universal Gravity Distance: remember it is squared and has a greater effect on force
Gm1m2 d2 Fg= Newton's Law of Universal Gravity Distance is inversely proportional to Fg: if d is larger the Fg decreases
Gm1m2 d2 Fg= Newton's Law of Universal Gravity A constant that relates mass and distance to force G = 6.67 x 10-11Nm2/kg2 A constant G is not g g = -9.8 m/s2 Acceleration due to gravity G = 6.67 x 10-11 Nm2/kg2
Gm1m2 d2 Fg= Specifically, how do changes in masses or distance change Fg? • Law of ones. • Can be used with any equation
Gm1m2 d2 Fg= How do changes in masses or distance change Fg? • Ex.A: How does the force of gravity change if you double the distance between masses?
Gm1m2 d2 Fg= • Use the Law of ones. • Can be used with any equation • Start by isolating the variable you want to compare on the left Its Isolated (by itself)
Gm1m2 d2 Fg= (1)(1)(1) 12 Fg= = 1 • Next plug in ones for every variable on the right side. • If everything stayed the same Fg would equal 1
Gm1m2 d2 Fg= (1)(1)(1) 22 = = ¼ Now double the distance between masses? • If everything stayed the same Fg would equal 1 • Now change only the variables that change: d becomes a 2 (since it is double) • This tells me the force is ¼ of 1 • or ¼ original
Problem Set #1 • What would happen to the force of gravity if you tripled the distance between the objects? • What would happen to the force of gravity if you doubled the mass of one object? • What would happen to the force of gravity if you doubled the mass of one object and doubled the distance?

Problems with more than two masses in one axis • You need to know your frame of reference • At what point are you determining the overall gravitational force

Find the magnitude and direction of the net gravitational force acting on (a) particle A, (b) particle B, and (c) particle C.
