The correct Answer is:
To find the maximum possible angular velocity gained by the satellite, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Parameters We have the following parameters: - Charge capacity, \( Q = 5 \) Ampere-hours - Number of turns in the coil, \( N = 20 \) - Mass of the satellite, \( m = 10^3 \) kg - Magnetic flux density, \( B = 0.5 \) Gauss \( = 0.5 \times 10^{-4} \) Tesla ### Step 2: Calculate the Dipole Moment The dipole moment \( p \) of the coil can be calculated using the formula: \[ p = N \cdot I \cdot A \] where \( A \) is the area of the coil and \( I \) is the current. The area \( A \) of the coil can be expressed as: \[ A = \pi r^2 \] Since we don't have the radius \( r \), we will keep it in the equation for now. ### Step 3: Calculate the Current To find the current \( I \) from the charge \( Q \), we convert the charge from Ampere-hours to Coulombs: \[ Q = 5 \, \text{Amp-hours} = 5 \times 3600 \, \text{Coulombs} = 18000 \, \text{Coulombs} \] The current \( I \) can be calculated as: \[ I = \frac{Q}{t} \] Assuming the discharge happens suddenly, we can consider \( t \) to be very small, leading to a very high current. However, for practical purposes, we will consider the effective current during the discharge. ### Step 4: Calculate the Torque The torque \( \tau \) on the coil in the magnetic field is given by: \[ \tau = p \times B \] Substituting for \( p \): \[ \tau = N \cdot I \cdot A \cdot B = N \cdot I \cdot \pi r^2 \cdot B \] ### Step 5: Relate Torque to Angular Acceleration The torque can also be expressed in terms of angular acceleration \( \alpha \): \[ \tau = I \cdot \alpha \] where \( I \) is the moment of inertia of the satellite. For a thin-walled uniform sphere: \[ I = \frac{2}{3} m r^2 \] ### Step 6: Set Up the Equation Equating the two expressions for torque: \[ N \cdot I \cdot \pi r^2 \cdot B = \frac{2}{3} m r^2 \cdot \alpha \] We can cancel \( r^2 \) from both sides: \[ N \cdot I \cdot \pi B = \frac{2}{3} m \cdot \alpha \] ### Step 7: Solve for Angular Velocity We know that \( \alpha = \frac{d\omega}{dt} \). If we consider the total charge \( Q \) discharged, we can relate it to the change in angular velocity: \[ \alpha \cdot dt = d\omega \implies \alpha = \frac{d\omega}{dt} \] Substituting this into the equation gives: \[ N \cdot I \cdot \pi B = \frac{2}{3} m \cdot \frac{d\omega}{dt} \] Integrating gives us: \[ \omega = \frac{3}{2} \cdot \frac{N \cdot I \cdot \pi B}{m} \cdot t \] Assuming the entire charge is discharged in a very short time, we can approximate \( t \) as a constant factor. ### Step 8: Substitute Values Substituting the known values: - \( N = 20 \) - \( I = \frac{Q}{t} \) (considering \( t \) as a small constant) - \( B = 0.5 \times 10^{-4} \) Tesla - \( m = 10^3 \) kg We can calculate: \[ \omega = \frac{3}{2} \cdot \frac{20 \cdot I \cdot \pi \cdot (0.5 \times 10^{-4})}{10^3} \] Assuming \( I \) is effectively high during the discharge. ### Final Calculation Assuming \( I \) is effectively high, we can compute: \[ \omega = \frac{3}{2} \cdot \frac{20 \cdot (18000) \cdot \pi \cdot (0.5 \times 10^{-4})}{10^3} \] After calculating, we find: \[ \omega \approx 2.7 \times 10^{-2} \text{ rad/s} \] ### Conclusion The maximum possible angular velocity gained by the satellite is approximately: \[ \omega \approx 2.7 \pi \times 10^{-2} \text{ rad/s} \]

To find the maximum possible angular velocity gained by the satellite, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Parameters We have the following parameters: - Charge capacity, \( Q = 5 \) Ampere-hours - Number of turns in the coil, \( N = 20 \) - Mass of the satellite, \( m = 10^3 \) kg - Magnetic flux density, \( B = 0.5 \) Gauss \( = 0.5 \times 10^{-4} \) Tesla ...
