In the given figure `L=1` metre if total gravitational force on 4 kg mass is `vecF_(1)` and on 2 kg mass is `vecF_(2)` then find out the ratio of `|(vecF_(1))/(vecF_(2))|`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
`sqrt(2)`
`F_(1)=|F_(42)+vecF_(41)+vecF_(41)|`
`=(G8)/(4L^(2))+(G4)/(2L^(2))(2cos45)=((2+2sqrt(2))G)/(L^(2))`
`F_(2)=|vecF_(24)+vecF_(21)+vecF_(21)|=(G8)/(4L^(2))+(G2)/(2L^(2))(2cos45)`
`=(G)/(L^(2))(2+sqrt(2))implies(F_(1))/(F_(2))=sqrt(2)`
