QUESTION 4 Problem One newly discovered light particle has a mass of m and property q. Suppose it moves within the vicinity of an extremely heavy (fixed in place) particle with a property Q and mass M. When the light particle is xi distance from the heavy particle, it is moving directly away from the heavy particle with a speed of vi. a) What is the lighter particle's speed when it is xf away from the heavy particle? Am¡m2 Consider a new expression for gravitation potential energy as: PEaray = - where A is a constant, m, and m, are the masses of the r two objects, and r is the distance between them. Moreover, the new particle has an additional interaction with the heavy particle through the following force expression 1 Fnew = qQ 4πεο r2 where En is a constant that is read as epsilon naught, q and Q are their new properties, r is the distance between the new particle and the heavy particle.
