What is the gravitational potential energy of a two-particle system with masses 4.5 kg and 6.3 kg, if they are separated by 1.7 m? if you triple the separation between the particles, how much work is done (b) by the gravitational force between the particles and (c) by you?

7.41 x 10^-10 J

Explanation:

m = 4.5 kg

M = 6.3 kg

d = 1.7 m

The formula for the gravitational potential energy is given by

Where, G is the Universal gravitational constant

G = 6.67 x 10^-11 Nm^2/kg^2

U = - 1.112 x 10^-9 J

Now the separation is tripled, d' = 3 x d = 3 x 1.7 m = 5.1 m

Let the potential energy is U'

The formula for the gravitational potential energy is given by

Where, G is the Universal gravitational constant

G = 6.67 x 10^-11 Nm^2/kg^2

U' = - 3.71 x 10^-10 J

the work done is equal to the change in potential energy

W = U' - U

W = - 3.71 x 10^-10 + 1.112 x 10^-9

W = 7.41 x 10^-10 J

i dont know but

explanation:

whoever your teacher is, deserves a raise for using pokemon as an example

gpe = mass x gravity constant x height or… gpe = mgh

where… mass: measured in kilograms (kg)

gravity: gravity constant on earth = 10.00 m/s2

height: measured in meters (m)

gpe: measured in joules (j) or kilojoules (kj)

how do you solve gpe?

gravitational potential energy (gpe) is the energy an object has because of its position above the. ground.

gpe = mass x gravity constant x height or… gpe = mgh.
