Gravitational force The magnitude of the gravitational force between two objects of mass M and m is given by
- a. Find the instantaneous rate of change of the force with respect to the distance between the objects.
- b. For two identical objects of mass M = m = 0.1 kg, what is the instantaneous rate of change of the force at a separation of x = 0.01 m?
- c. Does the instantaneous rate of change of the force increase or decrease with the separation? Explain.
