"The International Space Station (ISS) orbits at a distance of 350 km above the surface of the Earth. (a) Determine the gravitat
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

(a) g = 8.82158145m/s^2.

(b) 7699.990192m/s.

(c)5484.3301s = 1.5234 hours.(extremely fast).

Explanation:

(a) Strength of gravitational field 'g' by definition is

g = \frac{M_{(earth)} }{r^2} G , here G is Gravitational Constant, and r is distance from center of earth, all the values will remain same except r which will be radius of earth + altitude at which ISS is in orbit.

r = 6721,000 meters, putting this value in above equation gives g = 8.82158145m/s^2.

(b) We have to essentially calculate centripetal acceleration that equals new 'g'.

a_{centripetal}=\frac{V^2}{r} =g here g is known, r is known and v is unknown.

plugging in r and g in above and solving for unknown gives V = 7699.990192m/s.

(c)  S = vT,  here T is time period or time required to complete one full revolution.

S =  earth's circumfrence , V is calculated in (B) T is unknown.

solving for unknown gives T = 5484.3301s = 1.5234hours.

Electric Field of Ring of Charge A ring shaped charge has a radius of 0.250 meters and bears a total charge of +5.00 C What is t
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

6.44 × 10^10 N/C

Explanation:

Electric field due to the ring on its axis is given by

E = K q r / (r^2 + x^2)^3/2

Where r be the radius of ring and x be the distance of point from the centre of ring and q be the charge on ring.

r = 0.25 m, x = 0.5 m, q = 5 C

K = 9 × 10^9 Nm^2/C^2

E = 9 × 10^9 × 5 × 0.25 / (0.0625 + 0.25)^3/2

E = 6.44 × 10^10 N/C
