A semicircle of radius a is in the first and second quadrants, with the center of curvature at the origin. Positive charge +Q is distributed around the left half of the semicircle (0 to 90 degrees) and negative charge -Q is distributed uniformly around the right half of the semicircle (90 to 180 degrees).

Part A: what is the magnitude of the net electric field at the origin produced by this distribution of charge?

Express your answer in terms of variables Q, a, and appropriate constants.

Part B: what is the direction of the net electric field at the origin produced by the distribution of this charge?

+X direction, -X direction, +Y direction, or -Y direction

After the near spacecraft passed mathilde, on several occasions rocket propellant was expelled to adjust the spacecraft's momentum in order to follow a path that would approach the asteroid eros, the final destination for the mission. after getting close to eros, further small adjustments made the momentum just right to give a circular orbit of radius 45 km (45 × 10^3 m) around the asteroid. so much propellant had been used that the final mass of the spacecraft while in circular orbit around eros was only 545 kg. the spacecraft took 1.04 days to make one complete circular orbit around eros. calculate what the mass of eros must be.
