FAQ

What is the Reduced Mass1?
The Reduced Mass1 is the "effective" inertial mass appearing in the two-body problem. It is a quantity which allows the two-body problem to be solved as if it were a one-body problem. Reduced Mass1 is usually measured using the Kilogram for Weight. Note that the value of Reduced Mass1 is always negative.
Can the Reduced Mass1 be negative?
Yes, the Reduced Mass1, measured in Weight can be negative.
What unit is used to measure Reduced Mass1?
Reduced Mass1 is usually measured using the Kilogram[kg] for Weight. Gram[kg], Milligram[kg], Ton (Metric)[kg] are the few other units in which Reduced Mass1 can be measured.
