So this is the info that's given to us:
m1 = 4.87 x 10^24 kg
m2 = 4.87 x 10^24kg
F = 2.58 x 10^3 N

Now we can use this equation to solve: f_g= \frac{Gm_1m_2}{r^2}

You may be asking what g is. Well, it is equal to 6.67x10^-11 m3 /kg s2. G is gravitational constant. So :

2.58 x 10^3 = \frac{6.67x10^{-11} * 4.87 x 10^{24} * 655}{r^{2}} 

As you can see we only have one variable, so we solve for r! 

r = 9.08 x 10^6 km

I hope this helps you out. I remember when I was first learning Newton's law<span> of universal </span><span>gravitation and I had some trouble. But with some practice, I got better. =) </span>

A disk with a uniform positive surface charge density lies in the x-y plane, centered on the origin. The disk contains 2.5 x 10-
allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

E=3 x 10^4 N/c

Explanation:

The electric field strength can be found out disk with a uniform positive surface charge density by

E= (\sigma/\2epsilon_o)(1-z/ \sqrt(z^2+r^2))

σ= charge density

r= radius of the disk

z= position in which we have to find electric field = 15 cm

ε_0= constant ( vacuum permitivity)

putting values we get

E= \frac{2.5\times10^{-6}}{2\times2.5\times10^{-6}}(1-\frac{0.15}{\sqrt{0.15^2+0.075^2} })

solving we get

E=30000 N/c

E=3 x 10^4 N/c

slamgirl [31]
To obtain the vertical component of the velocity, it is necessary to multiply the velocity at this time by sin 45 degrees. Since the velocity is not given, it must be solved first by dividing the distance by the time. To show this:

Velocity = distance / time
Velocity = 30 m / 4s
Velocity = 7.5 m/s

Vertical velocity = 7.5 sin 45
Vertical velocity = 5.3 m/s
