Four uniform spheres, with masses mA = 40 kg, mB = 35 kg, mC = 200 kg,
Question:
Four uniform spheres, with masses mA = 40 kg, mB = 35 kg, mC = 200 kg, and mD = 50 kg, have (x, y) coordinates of (0, 50 cm), (0, 0), (-80 cm, 0), and (40 cm, 0), respectively. In unit-vector notation, what is the net gravitational force on sphere B due to the other spheres?

In Physics, a force is an influence that can change the motion of an object. A force can cause an object with mass to change its velocity, i.e., to accelerate. Force can also be described intuitively as a push or a pull. A force has both magnitude and direction, making it a vector quantity. In this video, the concept of force and torque is demonstrated with the practical application of changing the flat tire of the car.
