A bead of mass m slides without friction along a curved wire with shape z = f(r) where r = Vr2 + y², i.e. the distance from the z-axis. The wire is rotated around the z-axis at a constant angular velocity w. Gravity acts downward along the z-axis with a constant acceleration g. a) Using Newton's second law in an inertial frame, derive an expression for radius ro of a fixed circular orbit (i.e. a solution with r = ro = const.). What is the normal force the wire applies to the bead to keep it in a circular orbit? b) Show that the equation of motion for r(t) (general equation not the circular motion) is F(1 + f'(r)²) + i² f'(r)f"(r) + gf'(r) – w?r = 0. Using this verify your answer to part (a). c) Consider small displacements from the circular orbit, r = ro+e(t). Derive a condition on the function f(r) such that a circular orbit at r = ro is stable. d) Find the force on the bead in the o direction, i.e. perpendicular to the plane of wire. The angular velocity is w = . Obtain the answer…

A meteoroid is moving towards a planet. It has mass m = 0.54×109 kg and speed v1 = 4.7×107 m/s at distance R1 = 1.6×107 m from the center of the planet. The radius of the planet is R = 0.78×107 m. The mass of the planet is M = 5.6×1025kg. There is no air around the planet. a)Enter an expression for the total energy E of the meteoroid at R, the surface of the planet, in terms of defined quantities and v, the meteoroid’s speed when it reaches the planet’s surface. Select from the variables below to write your expression. Note that all variables may not be required.α, β, θ, d, g, G, h, m, M, P, R, R1, t, v, v1 b)Enter an expression for v, the meteoroid’s speed at the planet’s surface, in terms of G, M, v1, R1, and R. c)Calculate the value of v in meters per second.
Halley's comet moves in an elliptical orbit about the sun. It loses speed as it moves away from the sun. Which of the following best explains why the comet loses speed in this way? Choose 1 answer: The centripetal force exerted on Halley's comet is smaller than the gravitational force exerted on Halley's comet during this portion of the orbit. As Halley's comet recedes from the sun, the Sun-comet system gains potential energy, and Halley's comet loses kinetic energy. The Sun exerts a torque on Halley's comet during its motion about the sun and decreases the Sun-comet system's angular momentum. A component of the gravitational force on Halley's comet is perpendicular to its direction of motion, causing the comet to lose speed.
