If the mass of a planet is 0.231 mE and its radius is 0.528 rE, estimate the gravitational field g at the surface of the planet.

crimeas [40]

Answer:

$8.1 m/s^2$

Explanation:

The strength of the gravitational field at the surface of a planet is given by

$g=\frac{GM}{R^2}$ (1)

where

G is the gravitational constant

M is the mass of the planet

R is the radius of the planet

For the Earth:

$g_E = \frac{GM_E}{R_E^2}=9.8 m/s^2$

For the unknown planet,

$M_X = 0.231 M_E\\R_X = 0.528 R_E$

Substituting into the eq.(1), we find the gravitational acceleration of planet X relative to that of the Earth:

$g_X = \frac{GM_X}{R_X^2}=\frac{G(0.231M_E)}{(0.528R_E)^2}=\frac{0.231}{0.528^2}(\frac{GM_E}{R_E^2})=0.829 g_E$

And substituting g = 9.8 m/s^2,

$g_X = 0.829(9.8)=8.1 m/s^2$

A disk of radius a has a total charge Q uniformly distributed over its surface. The disk has negligible thickness and lies in th

sleet_krkn [62]

The electric potential V(z) on the z-axis is : V = $(\frac{Q}{a^2} ) [ (a^2 + z^2)^{\frac{1}{2} } -z$

The magnitude of the electric field on the z axis is : E = kб 2 $\pi$ ( 1 - [z / √(z² + a² ) ] )

<u>Given data :</u>

V(z) =2kQ / a²(v(a² + z²) ) -z

<h3>Determine the electric potential V(z) on the z axis and magnitude of the electric field</h3>

Considering a disk with radius R

Charge = dq

Also the distance from the edge to the point on the z-axis = √ [R² + z²].

The surface charge density of the disk ( б ) = dq / dA

Small element charge dq = б( 2πR ) dr

dV $\frac{k.dq}{\sqrt{R^2+z^2} } \\\\= \frac{k(\alpha (2\pi R)dR}{\sqrt{R^2+z^2} }$ ----- ( 1 )

Integrating equation ( 1 ) over for full radius of a

∫dv = $\int\limits^a_o {\frac{k(\alpha (2\pi R)dR)}{\sqrt{R^2+z^2} } } \,$

V = $\pi k\alpha [ (a^2+z^2)^\frac{1}{2} -z ]$

= $\pi k (\frac{Q}{\pi \alpha ^2})[(a^2 +z^2)^{\frac{1}{2} } -z ]$

Therefore the electric potential V(z) = $(\frac{Q}{a^2} ) [ (a^2 + z^2)^{\frac{1}{2} } -z$

Also

The magnitude of the electric field on the z axis is : E = kб 2 $\pi$ ( 1 - [z / √(z² + a² ) ] )

Hence we can conclude that the answers to your question are as listed above.
