Panel bc in fig. p2.76 is semi-circular, with the 3 meter radius and horizontal straight edge through point b. compute (a) the hydrostatic force of the water on the panel, (b) its center of pressure, and (c) the moment of this force about point b. assume atmospheric pressure on the dry side of the panel
Two identical stars with mass m orbit around their center of mass. each orbit is circular and has radius r, so that the two stars are always on opposite sides of the circle. (a) find the gravitational force of one star on the other. (b) find the orbital speed of each star and the period of the orbit. (c) how much energy would be required to separate the two stars to infinity?
