Consider the system of two identical masses on the y axis that we worked with in class: one mass m at position (r, , a) and another identical mass m at position (x, y)- (0, -a). (a) draw a well labeled diagram like we did in class showing an arbitrary point (x, y) and write out the full expression for the total gravitational field (in component form) at that point. also draw a set of gravitational field lines throughout the region showing the magnitude, direction, and symmetry of the field (b) use your expression from part (a) to write an expression for the total gravitational field (in component form) at an arbitrary position on the y axis. do the components of your result (for points above, below, and between the masses) make sense given the symmetry of the system? explain. (c) describe in words and/or equations) what you think the magnitude and direction of the gravitational field should be at a point on the y axis very far above the origin (i. e. where x 0 and y> > a). show that your expression from (b) demonstrates this behavior if you take the appropriate limit

At 20∘c, the hole in an aluminum ring is 2.800 cm in diameter. you need to slip this ring over a steel shaft that has a room-temperature diameter of 2.804 cm . 1. to what common temperature should the ring and the shaft be heated so that the ring will just fit onto the shaft? coefficients of linear thermal expansion of steel and aluminum are 12×10−6 k−1 and23×10−6 k−1 respectively.

22. the top of a cliff is located a distance h above the ground. at a distance h/2 there is a branch that juts out from the side of the cliff, and on this branch a bird's nest is located. two children throw stones at the nest with the same initial speed, one stone straight downward from the top of the cliff and the other stone straight upward from the ground. in the absence of air resistance, which stone hits the nest in the least amount of time?
