-2 Newton's Law of Gravitation

PROBLEMS sec. 13-2 Newton's Law of Gravitation •1 A mass M is split into two parts, m and M – m, which are then separated by a certain distance. What ratio m/M maximizes the magnitude of the gravitational force between the parts? Answer: •2 Moon effect.Some people believe that the Moon controls their activities. If the Moon moves from being directly on the opposite side of …

• Vertical periodic motion: Y = Y 0 cos(Ωt), X = 0. 2Y 0 cosΩt)sinθ. The motion of the support adds an oscillating component to the gravitational acceleration. This is not a driven oscillator like the previous case, because the oscillatory driving force is vertical but the natural oscillatory pendulum motion is horizontal. If Y 0Ω2 ˝ g,

focal point, F. The distance from the focal point to the vertex of the mirror is the focal length, f. The relationship between the radius of curvature and the focal length is, R = 2f. For a concave mirror, all of the light rays that run parallel to the principal axis will reflect off of the mirror and converge at the focal point. See Figure 4 ...

3.1.Image formation by Mirrors and Lenses

A virtual image is formed by a plane mirror at a distance q behind the mirror. q = -p. 2 Parabolic Mirrors Parallel rays reflected by a parabolic mirror are focused at a point, called the Focal Point located on the optic axis. Optic Axis Parabolic Reflector Parabolic mirrors can be used to focus incoming parallel rays to a small area

Focal distance of a point Let the equation of the parabola be y2 = 4ax and P(x, y) be a point on it. Then the distance of P from the focus (a, 0) is called the focal distance of the point, i.e., FP = ( )x a y− +2 2 = 2 ( ) 4x a ax− + = ( )x a+ 2 = | x + a | 11.1.4 Ellipse An ellipse is the set of points in a plane, the sum of whose distances
