Reading Read Ch. 6 – Answer 4 Questions 1. 2. 3. 4. Why is it called the “Principle of Least Action”? What does Chapter 6 have to do with the Lagrangian method? What part of the chapter did you find most interesting or novel? What question(s) did the reading leave you with? 2

Gauss’s Law – I - Flux (Phi) may be thought of as the number of liters of fluid per second flowing through an area. The field-strength (g) may be thought of as # liters/second-m 2 5
Gauss’s Law - II Total Flux through a surface depends ONLY on the amount of mass contained inside that surface. 6
Gauss’s Law - II Unique property of inverse-square forces. For spherical shell and r>rshell, treat the entire shell mass as if concentrated at a point at the center of the shell 7
Potential of a sphere n n Using above formulae – 1) What is potential at radius r outside a solid sphere of radius R and mass M? 2) What is potential inside a solid sphere of radius R (at radius r<R)? 3) What is force? Give answers in terms of r, R, and M 8

Earth and Moon 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. What is the reduced mass for the earth-moon system (in kg)? How many percent different is it than the lunar mass What is theta-dot? What is the radius of a circular orbit? How would this change if the earth were fixed in space by the hand of God or a Borg tractor beam? 20
