The kings of planet A (mass 4M, radius 2R) and planet B (mass M, radius 3R) want to meet for negotiations. The planets are a distance 10R from one another, center to center. For absolute fairness, the kings (who possess no physics knowledge) decide that the meeting place P is to be exactly halfway between the planets. A space capsule of mass m is launched from point X on the surface of planet A by means of a giant cannon, which gives it a launch speed VL. It travels directly along the line that connects the centers of both planets. Ignore the orbital motion of the planets. a) Derive an expression for the speed V with which the capsule arrives at the meeting place P, in terms of relevant system parameters. b) Derive an expression for the net force (magnitude and direction) experienced by the capsule when it is at point P. c) At what distance from planet A is the net gravitational force zero?

This is important 1. what happens to the speed of molecules in water vapor when it condenses to form a liquid? (2 points) the molecules slow down. the molecules speed up. the molecules slow down and then speed up. the molecules speed up and then slow down. 2. how might human activities change to compensate for a decrease in water supplies? (2 points) humans might build a factory. humans might build drainage systems. humans might extract more water from the ground. human behavior does not change because of the water cycle. i'll be grateful if anyone can answer these 2 questions !

The dipole moment of the water molecule (h2o) is 6.17x10^-30 c.m. consider a water molecule located at the origin whose dipole moment p points in the +x-direction. a chlorine ion ( of charge-1.60x10^-19c , is located at x=3.00x10^-9m . assume that is much larger than the separation d between the charges in the dipole, so that the approximate expression for the electric field along the dipole axis can be used. a) find the magnitude of the electric force that the water molecule exerts on the chlorine ion. b) what is the direction of the electric force. -x-direction or +x-direction c) is this force attractive or repulsive?
