Explanation:
Kepler’s third law states that for all objects orbiting a given body, the cube of the semimajor axis (A) is proportional to the square of the orbital period (P).
For each of our planets orbiting the Sun, the relationship between the orbital period and semimajor axis can be represented by the equation as:
k is constant of proportionality
It is required to solve the above equation for k
Answer:
the force will decrease to 3/4 of its original value.
Explanation:
The initial electric force between the two charges is:
where
k is the Coulomb's constant
q is the magnitude of each charge
r is their separation
Later, half of one charge is transferred to the other charge; this means that one charge will have a charge of
while the other charge will be
So, the new force will be
So, the force will decrease to 3/4 of its original value.
