When an electron and its antiparticle (positron) combine, they annihilate each other
and become energy in the form of gamma rays.
9. What conservation law prevents this from happening
with two electrons?
10. The positron has the same mass as the electron.
Calculate how many joules of energy are released
when they annihilate. [Show all work, including the
equation and substitution with units.]

Determine the time it takes for a satellite to orbit the earth in a circular "near-earth" orbit. the definition of "near-earth" orbit is one which is at a height above the surface of the earth which is small compared to the radius of the earth, so that you may take the acceleration due to gravity as essentially the same as that on the surface. does your result depend on the mass of the satellite?
