Answer:

The new Coulomb force is q₁q₂/9πε₀r²

Explanation

The coulomb force between the two charges q₁ and q₂ at a distance r in air is given by F = q₁q₂/4πε₀r².

Now, let us assume the material of dielectric constant κ = 9 is placed between them on the side of the q₁ charge. The value of its effective charge is now q₃ = q₁/κ at a distance of d = r/2 from the q₂ charge.

Since we have air between q₂ and q₃, the coulomb force between them is

F' = q₂q₃/4πε₀d²

= q₂(q₁/κ)/4πε₀(r/2)²

=  4q₂q₁/κ4πε₀r²

= 4/κ(q₂q₁/4πε₀r²)

= 4/9 × (q₂q₁/4πε₀r²)

= q₁q₂/9πε₀r²

So, the new Coulomb force is q₁q₂/9πε₀r²

A block rests on a frictionless table on Earth. After a 40-N horizontal force is applied to the block, it accelerates at 9.2 m/s
Paul [167]

Answer:

4.6 \frac{m}{s^2}

Explanation:

Since the table is frictionless, there is no force of dynamic  friction between table an block when the horizontal force is applied to it on Earth. Exactly the same is true when the table is taken to the Moon. Therefore, the Net Force acting on the object in both cases when the object accelerates, is the external horizontal force.

Notice that on Earth and on the Moon, the weight of the object (vertical and pointing up) is compensated by the normal force of the table on the object (pointing up and of the same magnitude as the weight) that precludes movement in the vertical direction. So in both cases, its acceleration will only be due to the horizontal force.

We use the equation for Net Force to find the mass of the object:

F=m*a\\40 N =m * 9.2 \frac{m}{s^2}\\\frac{40}{9.2} kg=m\\m=\frac{40}{9.2} kg

We use this mass (since the mass of the object is a constant independent of where the object is) to find the acceleration the object will experience when the 20 N horizontal force is applied on it on the Moon:

f=m*a\\20N=\frac{40}{9.2} kg*a\\20*9.2=40*a\\\frac{20*9.2}{40} =a\\a=\frac{9.2}{2} \frac{m}{s^2} \\ a=4.6 \frac{m}{s^2}

A geosynchronous satellite moves in a circular orbit around the Earth and completes one circle in the same time T during which t
vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

   h = r- R   with   r = ∛ (G M T² / 4π²)

Explanation:

As the satellite interacts with the Earth, let's use the law of universal gravitation

            F = G m M / r²

Let's write Newton's second law

           F = m a

           a = v2 / r

   

          G m M / r² = m v² / r

          G M / r = v²

          r = G M / v²

Let's work on satellite speed, counting speed, so we use uniform speed expressions

          v = d / t

Let's look for the distance it travels in a complete orbit and its time is equal to one (1) day since the satellite is geosynchronous

           d = 2π r

           t = T = 1 day (24h / 1day) (3600s / 1h) = 86400 s

           v = 2 π R / T

Let's calculate

           r = G M (T / 2π r)²

           r = G M T² / 4π² r²

           r³ = G M T² / 4π²

           r = ∛ (G M T² / 4π²)

This distance (r) is measured from the center of the earth, let's get the height (h) from the planet's surface

          r = R + h

          h = r- R
