Why and How Gravitational mass of a body is affected by the presence of other bodies near it?

My textbook (Cengage Physics, 3rd ed, Mechanics-II, Pg-5.8) says that the gravitational mass of a body is affected by the presence of other bodies near it, whereas the inertial mass of a body remains …

Why centripetal acceleration does not causes the rotating particle to reduce the radius of i...

I think that the centripetal force must develop a corresponding centripetal velocity that keeps on increasing as time passes because, $v = u + at$ Centripetal velocity constantly increases in terms of …

Tension in a massless string in various configurations [duplicate]

If a massless string is stretched by applying extensive forces of magnitude $x$ on both sides, a tension $T$ is developed at every point of the string. If the same massless string is placed over a fri …

Clarification on Work-Energy Theorem

The professor derived the Work-Energy Theorem using the following steps: $F=ma$ $Fd=mad$ $W=m(v^2−u^2)/2$ $W=\frac{1}{2}mv^2−\frac{1}{2}mu^2$ $W=ΔKE$ So, it seems that work only changes the kinetic en …
