The centripetal force (of gravity) on a satellite in orbit is an
unbalanced force (because there's no equal force pulling
the satellite away from Earth), changes the direction of the
satellite (into a closed orbit instead of a straight line), and
always acts toward the center of whatever curve the satellite
happens to be on at the moment.

Answer:
Explanation:
Using the atomic mass of pluonium atoms (244 g/mol), you can calculate the number of atoms in 47.0 g. Then, knowing that each plutonium atom has 96 protons, you calculate the number of protons in the 47.0 g sample. Finally, using the positive charge of one proton, you calculate the total positive charge in the 47.0 g of plutonium.
<u>1. Number of atoms of plutonium in 47.0 g</u>
- Number of moles = mass / atomic mass = 47.0 g / 244 = 0.1926 moles
- Number of atoms = number of moles × 6.022 × 10²³ atoms/mol
- Number of atoms = 0.1926 mol × 6.022 × 10²³ atoms/mol = 1.15998×10²³ atoms
<u>2. Number of protons</u>
- Number of protons = 1.15998×10²³ atoms × 96 protons/atom = 1.11385×10²⁵ protons
<u>3. Charge</u>
<u />
- Charge = charge of one proton × number of protons
- Charge = 1.602×10⁻¹⁹ C/proton × 1.11385×10²⁵ protons = 1.78×10⁶C
