The formula above is Newton's law of universal gratitation, where F is the attractive force, `gamma` is the gravitational constnat, `m_(1)and m_(2)` are the masses of the particles, and r is the distnace between their centres of mass. Which of the following givers r in terms of `F, gamma , m_(1),and m _(2)`?

A

`r = sqrt(((m _(1))(m_(2)))/(gamma (m_(2))))`

B

`r=sqrt((F(m _(2)))/(gamma (m _(1))))`

C

`r=sqrt((gamma(m _(2)))/(F (m _(1))))`

D

`r=sqrt((gamma(m_(1))(m_(2)))/(F))`

The correct Answer is:
To solve for \( r \) in terms of \( F, \gamma, m_1, \) and \( m_2 \) using Newton's law of universal gravitation, we start with the formula: \[ F = \frac{\gamma \cdot m_1 \cdot m_2}{r^2} \] ### Step 1: Rearranging the equation We want to isolate \( r^2 \) on one side of the equation. To do this, we can multiply both sides by \( r^2 \) and then divide both sides by \( F \): \[ F \cdot r^2 = \gamma \cdot m_1 \cdot m_2 \] ### Step 2: Isolating \( r^2 \) Next, we divide both sides by \( F \) to isolate \( r^2 \): \[ r^2 = \frac{\gamma \cdot m_1 \cdot m_2}{F} \] ### Step 3: Taking the square root To find \( r \), we take the square root of both sides: \[ r = \sqrt{\frac{\gamma \cdot m_1 \cdot m_2}{F}} \] ### Conclusion Thus, the expression for \( r \) in terms of \( F, \gamma, m_1, \) and \( m_2 \) is: \[ r = \sqrt{\frac{\gamma \cdot m_1 \cdot m_2}{F}} \] ### Final Answer The correct option is option 4: \[ r = \sqrt{\frac{\gamma \cdot m_1 \cdot m_2}{F}} \] ---
