(14%) Problem 7: The figure shows a small sphere of mass m a distance D from the edge of a uniform rod of length L and mass M placed perpendicularly to the rod. The left edge of the rod is placed at the origin of an xy coordinate system. The x-direction points to the right, and the y-direction points up in the figure shown. D 33% Part (a) Write an expression for the x-component of the gravitational force Fx on the mass m, where G is the gravitational constant. A 33% Part (b) Write an expression for the y-component of the gravitational force Fy on the mass m, where G is the gravitational constant. 33% Part (c) The rod has a mass of 8.4 kg and the small sphere's mass is half the mass of the rod. The distance D = 0.85 m and the rod has a length of 0.85 m. What is the magnitude of the gravitational force, in newtons, of the ball?
