Physics AL Mechanics Question (緊急!)

2008-01-25 8:36 am
Given: radius of the Earth = 6.37*10^6 m
radius of the Moon = 1.73*10^6 m
G = 6.67*10^(-11) N m2 kg(-2)


Assume Earth is 81 times heavier than Moon, and the distance between their centres is about (3.8)*10^5 km.

The maximum gravitational potential between Earth and Moon is -1.3*10^6 J kg(-1). Show that this point divides the distance between the centres of Earth and Moon roughly in the ratio 9:1.

點解唔係81:1 ? 如何計到 9:1?
請各位brothers指教!

加分!!!

Let the distance between the point and the centre of the EARTH be d m

when the GRAVITATIONAL POTENTIAL is MAXIMUM at the point , then the FIELD STRENGTH at that point is ZERO

Let 81m be the mass of EARTH and m be the mass of MOON

G(81m)/d^2+[-G(m)/(3.8*10^8-d)^2]=0

G(81m)/d^2=G(m)/(3.8*10^8-d)^2

81/d^2=1/(3.8*10^8-d)^2

[d/(3.8*10^8-d)]^2=81

[d/(3.8*10^8-d)]=9

d=9(3.8*10^8-d)

d=3.42*10^9-9d

10d=3.42*10^9

d=3.42*10^8 m

Therefore,

the distance between the point and the centre of the EARTH : the distance between the point and the centre of the MOON
=3.42*10^8 m :(3.8*10^8-3.42*10^8)m
=3.42*10^8 m : 0.38*10^8 m
=9:1

x^2008-x^1004+1/x^1004
