Answer:
+1.46×10¯⁶ C
Explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Charge 1 (q₁) = +26.3 μC = +26.3×10¯⁶ C
Force (F) = 0.615 N
Distance apart (r) = 0.750 m
Electrical constant (K) = 9×10⁹ Nm²/C²
Charge 2 (q₂) =?
The value of the second charge can be obtained as follow:
F = Kq₁q₂ / r²
0.615 = 9×10⁹ × 26.3×10¯⁶ × q₂ / 0.750²
0.615 = 236700 × q₂ / 0.5625
Cross multiply
236700 × q₂ = 0.615 × 0.5625
Divide both side by 236700
q₂ = (0.615 × 0.5625) / 236700
q₂ = +1.46×10¯⁶ C
NOTE: The force between them is repulsive as stated from the question. This means that both charge has the same sign. Since the first charge has a positive sign, the second charge also has a positive sign. Thus, the value of the second charge is +1.46×10¯⁶ C
Answer:
7.55 km/s
Explanation:
The force of gravity between the Earth and the Hubble Telescope corresponds to the centripetal force that keeps the telescope in uniform circular motion around the Earth:
where
is the gravitational constant
is the mass of the telescope
is the mass of the Earth
is the distance between the telescope and the Earth's centre (given by the sum of the Earth's radius, r, and the telescope altitude, h)
v = ? is the orbital velocity of the Hubble telescope
Re-arranging the equation and substituting numbers, we find the orbital velocity:
There would be very less percentage loss<span> of the kinetic energy during </span>the conversion<span> to internal energy, assuming that there is less air in the </span>surroundings<span>. Also, the friction will contribute to the conversion where if it is, the percentage loses is negligible.</span>
