Gravity – Take 2
Gravitation
Gravitation Austin has a mass of 50 kg while Kevin has a mass of 60 kg. Sitting a meter apart, they notice they are attracted to each other (gravitationally). • What force does each experience? Which is greater? • In a frictionless world, what acceleration would each experience? Which is greater? Clark (100 kg) accidentally falls out of a building. As expected he accelerates downwards at a rate of 9. 8 ms-2. However, knowing that the radius of Earth is approximately 6, 300 km, his nerdy mind calculates the mass of the Earth and the acceleration of the Earth up to meet him. What are his results?

Gravitational Potential Energy Nick has a mass of 50 kg while Andrew has a mass of 60 kg. Sitting a meter apart, they notice they are attracted to each other (gravitationally). • How much potential energy is stored between them? • How much energy needs to be added to allow them to be free from each other? Does it matter which one receives the energy? A rocket containing the world’s cats is shot from the Earth’s surface towards the sun. The Earth has a radius of 6, 370 km and a mass of 5. 98 x 1024 kg. What does the rocket’s velocity need to be to reach the sun and immolate the world’s cat supply.
