Two planets are 3.4 x 10^10 m apart (centre to centre) in a straight line far from the influence of any other objects. The first planet has a mass of 2.5 x 10^22 kg. The second planet has a mass of 8.9 x 10^21 kg. How far from the centre of the first planet is the overall acceleration due to gravity, g, equal to zero?
let us consider that point is at distance d from 1st planet
also, at that point acceleration due to gravity due to each particle must be same
so
G M1 / d^2 = G M2 / ( 3.4 - d) ^2
3.4 / d - 1 = sqrt ( 8.9 / 25)
d = 2.129* 10^10 m

Comment before rate in case any doubt, will reply for sure.. goodluck

Two equally charges particles are held 3.70 x 10-3 m apart and then released from rest. The initial acceleration of the first particle is observed to be 5.00 m/s^2 and that of the second to be 9.70 m/s^2. The mass of the first particle is 6.30 x 10-7 kg. What is the mass of the second particle? What is the magnitude of the charge of each particle?
l T-Mobile 9:15 AM a webassign.net Astrology, that unlikely and vague pseudoscience, makes much of the position of the planets at the moment of one's birth. The only known force a planet exerts on Earth is gravitational. Calculate the magnitude of the gravitational force (in N) exerted on a 3.00 kg baby by a 130 kg father 0.250 m away at birth (he is assisting, so he is close to the child.) ) Calculate the magnitude of the force on...
Two equally charged particles, held 3.0 x 10-3 m apart, are released from rest. The initial acceleration of the first particle is observed to be 7.9 m/s2 and that of the second to be 9.7 m/s2. If the mass of the first particle is 5.3 x 10-7 kg, what are (a) the mass of the second particle and (b) the magnitude of the charge (in C) of each particle?
A large asteroid of mass 60900kg is at rest far away from any planets or stars. a smaller asteroid of mass 8.0 x 10^2 kg, is in circular orbit about the first at a distance of 366 meters as a result of their mutual gravitational attraction. What is the speed of the second asteroid? Now suppose that the first and second asteroids carry charges of +2.68c and -2.68c. How fast would the second asteroid have to be moving in order...
Far out in space, very far from any other gravitating objects, two spheres are located 0.8 m apart (center-to-center distance). The mass of sphere A is 27 kg, while the mass of sphere B is 13 kg. Sphere B is released from rest while sphere A is held in place at the origin of the coordinate system. What is the kinetic energy of the sphere B once it has moved 0.4 m toward sphere A? Your answer should be in...
3) The next two questions pertain to the following situation. Star S has two planets, X and Y, that both orbit Sin uniform circular motion. Planet X of mass my = 2.7 x 1021 kg orbits star S in uniform circular motion at a distance rx = 2.8 * 1012 m and with speed vx = 9.7 x 104 m/s. The mass of star S is Ms and its radius is Rs = 2 x 10 m, as shown in...
