The answers they want is in μN. Newtons I understand, but what is μ doing in there?

Well the vector r2 is the only mass going in the i-hat direction. And since its a system, I divided by the total mass

net force exerted on the system quick question- halllp lol. Homework Statement The vector position of a 3.10 g particle moving in the xy plane varies in time according to the following equation. r1 = (3i+3j)t + 2jt^2 At the same time, the vector position of a 5.15 g particle varies...

take the derivative of the position vectors and to find the velocity vectors.

bump for question due today.

(e) Find the net force exerted on the two-particle system. i μN j μNShouldn't the net force exerted for i and j just be the : acceleration i-hat * (m1 + m2) and acceleration j-hat * (m1 + m2) I have part D for acceleration as r1 : 4 j r2 : -4 i I'm doing this and am getting the wrong...

nevermind- just added the vectors
