The earth has a net negative charge of about -4.3 x 105 C. Since this charge is distributed more or less uniformly over the spherical earth, the force due to this charge is the same as if it were all placed at the Earth's center. A 6.0 kg satellite is orbiting with an orbital radius of 55000 km. If the satellite were also charged, then there would be an electric force in addition to the gravitational force a. What charge...

While sitting on the surface of the Earth, a satellite has a weight of 1600 N. This satellite is put into orbit so that it is four times the distance from the center of the Earth as it had been while on the surface of the Earth. What will happen to the weight of the satellite? A. The weight of the satellite will be reduced to 1/2 of its original, making it weigh 800 N. B. The weight of the satellite...
