Two asteroids are in space separated by a distance of 4000m with no other forces around them. The first asteroid has a mass of 2000kg and the second one has a mass of 1500kg. a) What is the force of gravity between these two objects?
Homework Answers
From Newton's Gravitational Law
The gravitational force between two objects is proportional to their mass and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between their centers.
F =G*m1*m1/(r^2)
F =(6.67*10^-11 N.m^2/kg^2*2000 kg*1500 kg)/(4000 m)^2
F =1.250625*10^-11 N
F =1.250*10^-11 N

Two identical asteroids are floating in space, separated by a distance, d. The asteroids both have a charge q and a mass m. If the Coulomb force and the gravitational force are equal (thereby counteracting each other), find the charge on an asteroid as a function of mass. Please include a picture diagram.

Two identical asteroids are floating in space, separated by a distance, d. The asteroids both have a charge q and a mass m. If the Coulomb force and the gravitational force are equal (thereby counteracting each other), find the charge on an asteroid as a function of mass. As a reminder, the equation for gravitational force is F=Gm1m2r122.

Two asteroids are far from any gravitation and are initially at rest in space. The mass of asteroid one is 5.7 x 1018 kg and the mass of asteroid two is 3.6 x 10 17 kg. After they fall towards eachother the first asteroid has a speed of 31 m/s right before impact. How fast is the second asteroid moving right before impact?

1. On earth, two parts of a space probe weigh 11000 N and 5700 N. These parts are separated by a center-to-center distance of 13 m and may be treated as uniform spherical objects. Find the magnitude of the gravitational force that each part exerts on the other out in space, far from any other objects. ________________________ N 2.

4. (15 pts.) Two perfectly uniform, spherical asteroids are released from rest (at time t = 0) in deep space (consider this an isolated system), and move towards each other under their mutual gravitational attraction. Asteroid A has a mass of 10,000 kg and radius of 200 m and asteroid B has a mass of 20,000 kg and a radius of 300m. Originally, the centers of the two asteroids are separated by a distance of 106 m.

Answer the following: a) If the distance between two objects doubles, and the mass of the objects stay the same, what can be said of the force of gravity between them? b) If the distance between two objects halves, and the mass of one of the objects stays the same and the other triples, what can be said of the force of gravity between them?
