Two particles move about each other in circular orbits under the influence of gravitational forces, with a period τ. their motion is suddenly stopped at a given instant of time, and they are then released and allowed to fall into each other. prove that they collide after a time τ/(4 2).

Imma say go with a (:

I'm having some difficulty seeing the diagram clearly.but the question says there's a net inward force on the object.so we know right away,  from newton's 2nd law of motion, thatthat baby is accelerating.  it doesn't even matter which way thenet force is pointing.  if there's any net force, then either theobject's speed or else its direction must be changing.

There are no answer choices, so an example would be: it takes a long time and a lot of precision to sew a shirt by hand, so a machine was created to do the job instead.
