Consider two point particles that have charge +e, are at rest, and are separated by 2.7 x 10-15 m.

1) how much work was required to bring them together from a very large separation distance? kev

2) if they are released, how much kinetic energy will each have when they are separated by twice their separation at release? kev

3) the mass of each particle is 1.00 u (1.00 amu). what speed will each have when they are very far from each other? m/s

To place a communications satellite into a geosynchronous orbit at an altitude of 22,240 mi above the surface of the earth, the satellite first is released from a space shuttle , which is in a circular orbit at an altitude of 185 mi, and then is propelled by an upper-stage booster to its final altitude. as the satellite passes through a, the booster's motor is fired to insert the satellite into an elliptic transfer orbit. the booster is again fired at b to insert the satellite into a geosynchronous orbit. knowing that the second firing increases the speed of the satellite by 4810ft/s, determine (a.) the speed of the satellite as it approaches b on the elliptic transfer orbit, (b.) the increase in speed resulting from the first firing at a.
