Given: Mass of earth Me = 5.98 x 10²⁴ Kg
           Radius of satellite - radius of the earth

           r = 13,594 Km - 6,380 Km = 7,214 Km    convert to meter "m"

           r = 7,214,000 m
            G = 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N.m²/Kg²
Required: What is the period T = ?
Formula: F = ma;  F = GMeMsat/r²     Centripetal acceleration ac = V²/r
               but V = 2πr/T
equate T from all equation.
F = ma
GMeMsat/r² = Msat4π²/rT²    
GMe = 4π²r³/T²
T² = 4π²r³/GMe  

T² = 39.48(7,214,000 m)³/(6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ N.m²/Kg²)(5.98 x 10²⁴ Kg)

T² = 1.48 x 10²² m³/3.99 x 10¹⁴ m³/s²

T² = 37,092,731.83 s²

T = 6,090.38 seconds    or  1.7 Hr

Two protons in an atomic nucleus are typically separated by a distance of 2 ✕ 10-15 m. The electric repulsion force between the
castortr0y [4]

Answer:

The magnitude of the electric force between the to protons will be 57.536 N.

Explanation:

We can use Coulomb's law to find out the force, in scalar form, will be:

F \ = \ \frac{1}{4 \pi \epsilon_0 } \frac{q_1 q_2}{d^2}.

Now, making the substitutions

d \ = \ 2.00 * 10 ^{-15} \ m,

q_1 = q_2 = 1.60 * 10 ^ {-19} \ C,

\frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_0}=8.99 * 10^9 \frac{Nm^2}{C^2},

we can find:

F \ = \ 8.99 * 10^9 \frac{Nm^2}{C^2} \frac{(1.60 * 10 ^ {-19} \ C)^2}{(2.00 * 10 ^{-15} \ m)^2}.

F \ = 57.536 N.

Not so big for everyday life, but enormous for subatomic particles.
