Question

I mainly need help with B, But if you have wanna input a solution and work for A that would be great. Thanks and this is for my Calculus II class.

The gravitational force between two objects is proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance separating them. That is, if masses m1 and m2 are separated by a distance r, then the gravitational force between them is given by F=Gm1M2/r2, where G is a constant.

A. Find the gravitational force between a point with mass m1 and a thin uniform rod of mass m2 and length L if the point lies on the same line as the rod at a distance of a from the near end of the rod. Show your calculations.

B. Find the gravitational force between two thin uniform rods with masses m1 and m2 and lengths L1 and L2 if the rods lie on the same line and are separated by a distance a. Show your calculations.
