2 Newton Law of Gavity Gavitational attaction i the foce that act between object that have a gavitational chage, i.e. gavitational ma (one of the myteiou fact of natue i that inetial ma and gavitation chage ae popotional (o identical in SI unit) to anothe! Thi, among othe fact, led intein to the Theoy of Relativity) Foce of Gavity between point-mae m 1 and m at ditance 1 fom one anothe: mm 1 FG,1 on G extemely weak fo 1 nomal mae 1 Magnitude: Gm 1 m / 1, INIFINT RANG with G = Nm /kg Diection: attactive; 1 i pointing outwad Fo SPHRICALLY SYMMTRIC object: a if all ma wa at cente mm F G j e.g. between ma m and ath at ealevel: 9/15/014 mg G R 11 4 GM g R Lectue 9 j 9.80 m/

Foce: F = Gm /d = Nm /kg 5.0 kg / m = N cf. 50 N fo the weight i.e. extemely weak: no appeciable angle of the ting away fom vetical! 9/15/014 Lectue 9 3

Gavity of a Sphee Gavity act between point-like object a 1/ditance-quaed. Thi mean that all extended SPHRICALLY SYMMTRIC object behave a point-like!

6 Gavity of a Sphee Gavity act between point-like object a 1/ditance-quaed. Thi mean that all extended SPHRICALLY SYMMTRIC object behave a point-like! Take a thin unifom pheical hell (M,R); conide the gavitational foce fom a thin band of the hell with ma dm, on a ma m at ditance : mdm mm m M df G co G daco G Rin A 4 R R d co mm Rco G ind R Note: i R Rco co in d d co d R R the vaiable; and R ae mm ind R contant FG df G co 9/15/014 mm d R G R R mm R G d 1 4R R R mm R G 4R R mm mm G RR G 4R Lectue 9 6

7 Gavity of a Spheically Symmetic object: A pheically ymmetic ma ditibution equal a eie of thin unifom hell, and give exactly the ame potential outide (>R) a a point ma. Similaly, we can look at the Gavitational Foce INSID a pheical hell (<R); eveything emain the ame except fo the integation limit, now: R to R+: FG df mm R G 4R R R mm R G 4R R R i.e. thee i NO foce of gavity inide the hell! mm G 0! 4R The latte mean that F G = 0 INSID any hollow pheically ymmetic ma ditibution! 9/15/014 Lectue 9 7
