Newton's Law of Universal Gravitation

Consider two particles of masses and , the position of the first particle is fixed, and the distance between the particles is units. Using Newton's Law of Universal Gravitation, find the work needed to move the second particle so that the distance between the particles increases to units.

Centripetal Force An object of mass m moves at a constant speed v in a circular path of radius v according to the position vector .

(a) The force required to produce the centripetal component of acceleration is called the centripetal force and is given by F = mv²/r. Use F = ma to verify the centripetal force.

(b) Newton’s Law of Universal Gravitation is given by , where d is the distance between the centers of the two bodies of masses M and m. and G is the gravitational constant. Use this law to show that the speed required for circular motion is .
