Six objects are placed at the vertices of a regular hexagon. The geometric center of the hexagon is at the origin with objects 1 and 4 on the x -axis (see figure). The mass of the k^ th object is m k=k M | q_ k | where i is an integer, M is a constant with dimension of mass, and q_ k is the angular position of the kth verted measured from the positive x -axis in the counter-clockwise sense. If the net gravitational f
Options
- A0
- B1
- C2
- D3
Correct answer
A. 0
Step-by-step solution
For Gravitational equilibrium ( F _ Net ) 0 All Diagonal opposite should have equal mass 2 i^ M 60^ 4 i ^ M (60^ +180^ ) Thus i =0
