Two asteroids of different masses are separated in space by a distance of 5m. Which one (if either) feels a stronger gravitational force due to the other? Or are they the same? Explain your reasoning.
Based on Newton's law of Gravitation and Newton's third law, the force of gravitation between the mass particles are equal and opposite in nature, i.e. Such forces form action- reaction pair.
Therefore, both asteroids experience the same force due to each other

Two identical asteroids are floating in space, separated by a distance, d. The asteroids both have a charge q and a mass m. If the Coulomb force and the gravitational force are equal (thereby counteracting each other), find the charge on an asteroid as a function of mass. As a reminder, the equation for gravitational force is F=Gm1m2r122.

a. Two 700-kg masses (1543 lb) are separated by a distance of 33 m. Using Newton’s law of gravitation, find the magnitude of the gravitational force exerted by one mass on the other. (Use G = 6.67 × 10-11 N·m2/kg2.) (Round the final answer to four decimal places.) The magnitude of the gravitational force exerted by one mass on the other is ___________ × 10–9 N. b. Two masses are attracted by a gravitational force of 0.36 N. What will...

Two 639-kg masses are separated by a distance of 0.15 m. Using Newton's Law of Universal Gravitation, find the gravitational force of attraction between these two masses.
Review Three identical very dense masses of 5700 kg each are placed on the x axis. One mass is at 150 cm, one is at the origin, and one is at 2 380 cm Part A What is the magnitude of the net gravitational force Faray on the mass at the origin due to the other two masses? Take the gravitational constant to be G 6.67x10-1 N m2/kg2 . Express your answer in newtons to three significant figures View Available...
Two masses, m1 and m2 are separated by a distance, r. The force of attraction between the two masses is F. If the original force is 20N and both masses quadruple while the r decreases to ¼ of the original distance: A) how much would F change? B) what will be the new force?
Question 5 5 pts Two objects that may be considered point masses are initially separated by a distance d. The separation distance is then increased to 3d. How does the gravitational force between these two objects change as a result of the decrease? OThe force will be one third of the initial value. O The force will be one ninth of the initial value O The force will not change since it is only dependent on the masses of the...
4. (15 pts.) Two perfectly uniform, spherical asteroids are released from rest (at time t = 0) in deep space (consider this an isolated system), and move towards each other under their mutual gravitational attraction. Asteroid A has a mass of 10,000 kg and radius of 200 m and asteroid B has a mass of 20,000 kg and a radius of 300m. Originally, the centers of the two asteroids are separated by a distance of 106 m. (a) When they...
