The orbital period of a satellite is
u=GM
p = sqrt((4*pi/u)*a^3)
Where
p = period
u = standard gravitational parameter which is GM (gravitational constant multiplied by planet mass). This is a much better figure to use than GM because we know u to a higher level of precision than we know either G or M. After all, we can calculate it from observations of satellites. To illustrate the difference, we know GM for Mars to within 7 significant figures. However, we only know G to within 4 digits.
a = semi-major axis of orbit.
Since we haven't been given u, but instead have been given the much more inferior value of M, let's calculate u from the gravitational constant and M. So
u = 6.674x10^-11 m^3/(kg s^2) * 6.485x10^23 kg = 4.3281x10^13 m^3/s^2
The semi-major axis of the orbit is the altitude of the satellite plus the radius of the planet. So
150000 m + 3.396x10^6 m = 3.546x10^6 m
Substitute the known values into the equation for the period. So
p = sqrt((4 * pi / u) * a^3)
p = sqrt((4 * 3.14159 / 4.3281x10^13 m^3/s^2) * (3.546x10^6 m)^3)
p = sqrt((12.56636 / 4.3281x10^13 m^3/s^2) * 4.458782x10^19 m^3)
p = sqrt(2.9034357x10^-13 s^2/m^3 * 4.458782x10^19 m^3)
p = sqrt(1.2945785x10^7 s^2)
p = 3598.025212 s
Rounding to 4 significant figures, gives us 3598 seconds.</span>
Complete question:
if two point charges are separated by 1.5 cm and have charge values of +2.0 and -4.0 μC, respectively, what is the value of the mutual force between them.
Answer:
The mutual force between the two point charges is 319.64 N
Explanation:
Given;
distance between the two point charges, r = 1.5 cm = 1.5 x 10⁻² m
value of the charges, q₁ and q₂ = 2 μC and - μ4 C
Apply Coulomb's law;
where;
F is the force of attraction between the two charges
|q₁| and |q₂| are the magnitude of the two charges
r is the distance between the two charges
k is Coulomb's constant = 8.99 x 10⁹ Nm²/C²
Therefore, the mutual force between the two point charges is 319.64 N
Answer:
The red car would experience the greatest acceleration.
Explanation:
Newton says that Force equals mass times acceleration or F = ma
We get a = F/m
If we want the greatest acceleration or a, mass or m must be the lowest.

Hope this helps
I think it’s C. But I’m not completely sure.
