PRO BLEM 10: A PARTICLE IN A PARABOLIC BOWL := kr Suppose a particle of mass m lives inside a parabolic bowl. The height z of the bowl is given, as a function of it's radius as z = kr², where k is a number. On a particular day the particle finds itself at a height zo as measured from the bottom of the parabola. At that instant it has a horizontal speed vo. Ignoring friction calculate (1) for a given value of horizontal velocity, that is we will let vo → Vh, the particle will move in a perfect circle. What is this v,? Answer this part of the question by drawing a free body diagram and applying New ton's laws. (2) Now, suppose vo > vh, where, vh is the value you calculated above. What is the maximum height reached by the particle? Answer this part of the question by evoking the conservation of energy, and remember to discuss what happens to angular momentum here. (3) Now, suppose vo = 0, but the particle is still at 20. Let us assume that 20 is small and that he particle will undergo…
In a futuristic scenario, you are assigned the mission of making an enemy satellite that is in a circular orbit around Earth inoperative. You know you cannot destroy the satellite, as it is well protected against attack, but you can try to knock it out of its orbit so it will fly away and never return. What is the minimum amount of work ?W applied to the satellite that is required to accomplish that? The satellite's mass and altitude are 969 kg969 kg and 241 km.241 km. Earth's mass and radius are 5.98×1024 kg5.98×1024 kg and 6370 km.
