Answer:
W = - 5.01 10¹⁰ J
Explanation:
Work is defined by the expression
W = ∫ F.dr
Where the blacks indicate vectors, in the case the force is radial and the distance is also radial, whereby the scalar producer is reduced to an ordinary product
W = ∫ F dr
W = G m₁m₂ ∫ 1 /r² dr
W = G m₁ m₂2(-1 / r)
We evaluate between the lower limits r = Re and upper r = ∞
W = G m₁m₂ (-1 / Re + 1 / ∞)
W = - G m₁ m₂ / Re
Let's calculate
W = - 6.67 10⁻¹¹ 800 5.98 10²⁴ / 6.37 10⁶
W = - 5.01 10¹⁰ J
The centripetal force needed to keep earth in orbit is gravity.
Your question asks what a scientific law is.
Your answer would be B). What scientists expect will always happen under particular circumstances
A scientific law is something that will always happen, it is mostly like a repeat when doing a experiment with certain factors in place. This is also known as a "natural law" because something will naturally happen when it is enacted with the same factors for multiple "trials". This "scientific law" will allow scientist to predict what would happen during other multiple trials that are conducted. Concise data would be received from these trials.
An example of a scientific law is Newton's law of gravitation.
Therefore, your answer would be B.
Explanation:
The law of repulsion is given by Coulomb. The mathematical form of Coulomb law is given by :
...............(1)
Where
F is the force
k is the electrostatic constant
are electric charges
r is the distance between charges
The Newton's law of universal gravitation is given by :
..............(2)
G is the universal gravitational constant
From equation (1) and (2) it is clear that both law obeys inverse square law and both are of same type. So, the law of repulsion by Coulomb agrees with the Newton's law of universal gravitation.
