The gravitational potential in a region ...

The gravitational potential in a region is given by, `V = 200(X + Y) J//kg`. Find the magnitude of the gravitational force on a particle of mass `0.5 kg` placed at the orgin.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A, B
`F = mE = m[(-(delV)/(del_(X))) hat i + (-(delV)/(del_(Y)))hatj]`
`= - (10 hati + 10 hatj) N` or `|F| = 10 sqrt(2) N`
