| 1. | The gravitational attraction between two objects is given by the formula F= G(m1m2/d2) where m represents the masses of the two objects, d is the distance between them and G is the gravitational constant (note: G = 6.67 x 10-11m3kg-1s-2). (a) Calculate the gravitational force between two objects (m1=525,000kg, m2=1,380,000kg) that are separated by70meters. (b) Then determine what the force is if m1is doubled and d is decreased by a factor of1/3(hint: calculate what to subtract first and then subtract from d; do not just multiply d by the fraction).

| | 4. | On planet X, the atmospheric pressure is lower than it is on planet Y. Interplanetary probes were recently sent to the two planets and data were obtained on many things including the atmospheric pressure. The pressure on planet Y is20N/m2. If the pressure on planet X istwo-thirdsthat of planet Y, what is the pressure, in Pascals, on planet X? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth if necessary.
