Both of those terms are widely used in higher education, particularly in the sciences. Their technical definitions, as well as their common underlying meanings, are precisely identical. So you can use either one without any fear of being corrected or misunderstood.

Answer:

A scientific theory is a well-substantiated explanation of some aspect of the natural world, based on a body of facts that have been repeatedly confirmed through observation and experiment. Such fact-supported theories are not "guesses" but reliable accounts of the real world.

A satellite is in circular orbit at an altitude of 1500 km above the surface of a nonrotating planet with an orbital speed of 9.

Ksju [112]

To solve this problem we will use the Newtonian theory about the speed of a body in space for which the speed of a body in the orbit of a planet is summarized as:

$v = \sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R}}$

Where,

G = Gravitational Universal Constant

M = Mass of Planet

r = Radius of the planet ('h' would be the orbit from the surface)

The escape velocity is

$v = 14.9km/h = 14900m/s$

Through this equation we can find the mass of the Planet in function of the distance, therefore

$M = \frac{v^2R}{2G}$

$M = \frac{14900^2R}{2(6.67*10^{-11})}$

$M = 16.64*10^{17}R$

The orbital velocity is

$v_o = \sqrt{\frac{GM}{R+h}}$

$9200^2 = \frac{(6.67*10^{-11})(16.64*10^{17})R}{R+1500*10^3}$

$11.1*10^7R = (R+15000*10^3)(9200)^2$

$2.64*10^7R = 12.69*10^{13}$

$R = 4.81*10^6m$

The time period of revolution is,

$T = \frac{2\pi(R+h)}{v_o}$

$T = \frac{2\pi(4.81*10^6+1.5*10^6)}{9200}$

$T = 4307s$

$T = 72min = 1hour12min$

Therefore the orbital period of the satellite is closes to 1 hour and 12 min

8. two +1 C charges are separated by 3000m. What is the magnitude of the electric force between them?

Sidana [21]

Answer:

1000 N

Explanation:

The magnitude of the electrostatic force between two charged object is given by

$F=k\frac{q_1 q_2}{r^2}$

where

k is the Coulomb constant

q1, q2 is the magnitude of the two charges

r is the distance between the two objects

Moreover, the force is:

- Attractive if the two forces have opposite sign

- Repulsive if the two forces have same sign

In this problem:

$q_1=q_2=+1C$ are the two charges

r = 3000 m is their separation

Therefore, the electric force between the charges is:

$F=(9\cdot 10^9)\frac{(1)(1)}{3000^2}=1000 N$
