Ll objects can be considered to be homogeneous spheres.
tempel 1 is a typical comet. in 2005 nasa sent the probe, "deep impact", to collide with tempel 1 at high speed, in order to gain information about the structure of comets.
the orbit of tempel 1 around the sun is elliptical, with the sun at one focus of the ellipse. in this orbit, tempel 1 is 2.26 × 108 km from the sun at its closest approach, and 7.08 × 108 km from the sun at its furthest approach.
in a future mission a probe could be placed on the comet’s surface to extract a sample of the surface material.
a) show that the minimum speed, with which the probe would have to leave the surface in order to escape from the comet, is 1.27 m s-1.ignore the motion of tempel 1.
b) the speed at which "deep impact" struck the comet’s surface was 1.02 × 103 m s-1. explain, whether or not, "deep impact", with this speed, could have gone into orbit around the comet

Along the line connecting the two charges, at what distance from the charge q1 is the total electric field from the two charges zero? express your answer in terms of some or all of the variables s, q1, q2 and k =14ï€ïµ0. if your answer is difficult to enter, consider simplifying it, as it can be made relatively simple with some work.
