the gravitational force between two objects is 3600 n. what will be the gravitational force between the objects if the mass of each object is reduced to one-third of its original mass?

a) 400 n
b) 1200 n
c) 10,800 n
d) 32,400 n

The gravitational force between the objects if the mass of each object is reduced to one-third of its original mass is 400N.

Explanation:-

By the universal law of gravitation

, where F is the force between the two objects have masses M and m ,d is the distance between them , G is the gravitational constant.

Given : The gravitational force between two objects is 3600 N.

If the mass of each object is reduced to one-third of its original mass then

such that the gravitational force between them

A) 400 N ( force become of its orignal force.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given  : The gravitational force between two objects is 3600 N.

To find : What will be the gravitational force between the objects if the mass of each object is reduced to one-third of its original mass.

Solution : We have given that force between two objects is 3600 N.

Formula of gravitational force = .

Where, = mass of one object ,   = mass of one object .

d = distance between two object , G is constant.

If mass of each object reduced to one third then force become,

= .

= .

=  .

Then plug the value of   = 3600

=  .

= 400 N.

Therefore, A) 400 N ( force become of its orignal force.

multiple all that
