Title: The identical 50-kg masses are held at the corners of an equilateral triangle, 3
Post by: ppk on Mar 26, 2012
The identical 50-kg masses are held at the corners of an equilateral triangle, 30 cm on each side. If one of the masses is released, what is its initial acceleration, if the only forces acting on it are the gravitational forces due to the other two masses?
A) 3.7 × 10-8 m/s2
B) 2.5 × 10-8 m/s2
C) 1.9 × 10-8 m/s2
D) 4.2 × 10-8 m/s2
E) 6.4 × 10-8 m/s2
