How do I solve this physics problem involving rotational motion and the law of gravity?
This isn’t a question about rotational motion. It’s just asking you to apply F = G*m1*m2/r^2. a) Plug in the values of the two masses and the separation. Keep in mind that r refers to the distance between the centers of masses (of the spacecraft and the black hole). b) This is asking you to use a mass of m2 = 1 kg, and two different values of r. One is at the nose of the spacecraft (10km from the center) and the other is at the tail (10 km + 100 m from the center). All you have to do to answer these questions is calculate F = G*m1*m2/r^2 three times.
