"(1) a satellite moving around Earth in a circular <span>orbit" is the only option from the list that describes an object in equilibrium, since velocity and gravity are working together to keep the orbit constant. </span>
Answer:
a) the magnitude of the force is
F= Q(
) and where k = 1/4πε₀
F = Qqs/4πε₀r³
b) the magnitude of the torque on the dipole
τ = Qqs/4πε₀r²
Explanation:
from coulomb's law
E = 
where k = 1/4πε₀
the expression of the electric field due to dipole at a distance r is
E(r) =
, where p = q × s
E(r) =
where r>>s
a) find the magnitude of force due to the dipole
F=QE
F= Q(
)
where k = 1/4πε₀
F = Qqs/4πε₀r³
b) b) magnitude of the torque(τ) on the dipole is dependent on the perpendicular forces
τ = F sinθ × s
θ = 90°
note: sin90° = 1
τ = F × r
recall F = Qqs/4πε₀r³
∴ τ = (Qqs/4πε₀r³) × r
τ = Qqs/4πε₀r²
Answer:
B
Explanation:
kinetic energy (KE) is the energy possessed by moving bodies. It can be expressed as:
KE =
m
Where: m is the mass of the object, and v its speed.
For example, a stone of mass 2kg was thrown and moves with a speed of 3 m/s. Determine the kinetic energy of the stone.
Thus,
KE =
x 2 x 
= 9
KE = 9.0 Joules
Assume that the speed of the stone was 4 m/s, then its KE would be:
KE =
x 2 x 
= 16
KE = 16.0 Joules
Therefore, it can be observed that as speed increases, the kinetic energy increases. Thus option B is appropriate.
