Answer:
Explanation:
For this exercise we must use the principle of conservation of energy
starting point. The proton very far from the nucleus
Em₀ = K = ½ m v²
final point. The point where the proton is stopped (v = 0)
Em_f = U = q V
where the potential is
V = k Ze / r²
Let us consider that all the charge of the nucleus is in the center, therefore r is the distance from this point to the proton that is approaching
Energy is conserved
Em₀ = Em_f
½ m v² = e ()
with this expression we can find the closest approach distance (r)
Answer:
(a)
M = 1.898 x 10^27 kg
(b)
v = 13.74 km/s
(c) E = 0.28 N/kg
Explanation:
Time period, T = 3.55 days = 3.55 x 24 x 3600 second = 306720 s
Radius, r = 6.71 x 10^8 m
G = 6.67 x 10^-11 Nm^2/kg^2
(a)
M = 1.898 x 10^27 kg
(b) Let v be the orbital velocity
v = 13739.5 m/s
v = 13.74 km/s
(b) The gravitational field E is given by
E = 0.28 N/kg
