Answer:
a) K = 2/3 π G m ρ R₁³ / R₂
, b) U = - G m M / r
Explanation:
The law of universal gravitation is
F = G m M / r²
Part A
Let's use Newton's second law
F = m a
The acceleration is centripetal
a = v² / R₂
G m M / R₂² = m v² / R₂
v² = G M / R₂
They give us the density of the planet
ρ = M / V
V = 4/3 π R₁³
M = ρ V
M = ρ 4/3 π R₁³
v² = 4/3 π G ρ R₁³ / R₂
K = ½ m v²
K = ½ m (4/3 π G ρ R₁³ / R₂)
K = 2/3 π G m ρ R₁³ / R₂
Part B
Potential energy and strength are related
F = - dU / dr
∫ dU = - ∫ F. dr
The force was directed towards the center and the vector r outwards therefore there is an angle of 180º between the two cos 180 = -1
U- U₀ = G m M ∫ dr / r²
U - U₀ = G m M (- r⁻¹)
We evaluate for
U - U₀ = -G m M (1 /
- 1 /
)
They indicate that for ri = ∞ U₀ = 0
U = - G m M / r
Answer:
2.16×10⁻⁶ N
Explanation:
Applying,
F = kqq'/r² (coulomb's Law)....................... Equation 1
Where F = electrostatic force, k = coulomb's constant, q = charge on the styrofoam, q' = charge on the grain of salt, r = distance between the charges.
From the question,
Given: q = 0.002 mC = 2.0×10⁻⁶ C, q' = 0.03 nC = 3.0×10⁻¹¹ C, r = 0.5 m
Constant: k = 8.99×10⁹ Nm²/C²
Substitute these values into equation 1
F = (2.0×10⁻⁶)(3.0×10⁻¹¹)(8.99×10⁹)/0.5²
F = 2.16×10⁻⁶ N

Answer:b
Explanation:
Object will be stable if its center of gravity lies over its base of support.
If the center of gravity is above the center of buoyancy then it provides positive righting moment and the object floats over the liquid and such object is said to possess positive meta-centric height.
Answer:

Explanation:
Since we know that two sphere is oppositely charged so net electric field at the mid point of two balls will be sum of the electric field due to each ball at the mid point
So we know that

here we know that



so we have
