Thinking the small glass bead as a single point charge, the electric field generated by it is given by
E(r) = k_e  \frac{Q}{r^2}
where
k_e = 8.99 \cdot 10^9 N m^2 C^{-2} is the Coulomb's constant
Q=8.0 nC=8.0 \cdot 10^{-9} C is the charge of the bead
r=3.0 cm=0.03 m is the distance at which we calculate the field.

Using these data, we find:
E=(8.99 \cdot 10^9 N m^2 C^{-2} ) \frac{(8.0 \cdot 10^{-9} C}{0.03 m)^2}=8.0 \cdot 10^4 N/C

Setler [38]

Answer:

a)  M = 4,997 10²⁰ kg ,  b)   T = 1.43 10³ s

Explanation:

a) This exercise should be solved in several parts, let's start by calculating the acceleration of gravity of this planet from kinematics

          v = v₀ - a t

As it indicates that there is no atmosphere, the friction force is zero and the initial and final velocity have the same module, but the opposite direction

         a = (v₀ - v) / t

         a = (15 - (-15)) /9.00 = 30/9

         a = 3.33 m / s²

Now we use Newton's second law where force is the force of universal attraction

          F = m a

         G m M / r² = m a

         M = a r² / G

Let's calculate

         M = 3.33 (1.00 10⁵)² / 6.67 10⁻¹¹

         M = 4,997 10²⁰ kg

b) The period of the ship's orbit

In this case we have a centripetal acceleration

The radius of the orbit is the radius of the plant plus the height of the ship from the surface

         R = R_{m} + h

         R = 1 10⁵ + 2.00 10⁴

         R = 12 10⁴ m

         F = m a

        G m M / R² = m a

Centripetal acceleration is

         a = v² / R

The orbit is circular therefore the velocity module is constant, so we can use the equation of uniform motion, where the distance is the length of the orbit, for a circle

        d = 2π R

        v = d / t

        v = 2π R / T

Let's replace

        G m M / R² = m (2π R / T)² / R

        G M = R³ 4π² / T²

        T² = 4π² R³ / G M

       T² = (4π² (12 10⁴)³ / (6.67 10⁻¹¹ 4,997 10²⁰)

       T² = 6.82 10¹⁶ / 3.33 10¹⁰

       T = √ (2,048 10⁶)

       T = 1.43 10³ s
