Questions
A mass M is split into two parts, m and (M–m), which are then separated by a certain distance. What ratio of m/M maximizes the gravitational force between the two parts
detailed solution
Correct option is B
F=Gm(M−m)r2For maximum force dFdm=0⇒ddmGmMr2−Gm2r2=0⇒M−2m=0⇒mM=12Talk to our academic expert!
