Question 13A spherical asteroid (M = 2.8x108 kg, R = 30 m) is floating motionless (v =0.0, w = 0.0) in outer space. A space craft with a mass of m= 610kg and velocity of 3,000 m/s strikes the asteroid with an impact parameter of 27.72 m. (Impact parameter is the distance from the center ofmass perpendicular to the velocity.) The craft lodges itself just below the surface after impact. What is the change in total kinetic (transnationaland rotational) energy of the asteroid? (1320)%Da) 05.11 kJb) O16.04 kJc) 05.98 kJd) O2745000.00 kJe) 037.49 kJ

The final velocity of the asteroid spacecraft system is obtained by conservation of linear momentum…

You are observing an exoplanet (a planet orbiting a star other than our Sun). Like many of the earliest exoplanets that were discovered, the planet is a "hot Jupiter", a gas giant that orbits its star closer than Earth orbits our Sun. You can assume the mass of the planet is much smaller than the mass of the star and can be neglected If the mass of the star is 0.54 solar masses, and the period of the orbit is 6.06 days, what is the distance from the star to the planet in AU? 1 AU E
In 2014, the Rosetta space probe reached the comet Churyumov– Gerasimenko. Although the comet’s core is actually far from spherical, in this problem we’ll model it as a sphere with a mass of 1.0 x 1013 kg and a radius of 1.6 km. If a rock were dropped from a height of 1.0 m above the comet’s surface, how long would it take to hit the surface?
(COLLAB Gauss's Law for Mass) Journey through the Center of the Earth. A 1024-kg blue ball is dropped from an initial z-position of 3.4 x 106 m through the center of a planet with radius 8.6 x 106 m. If the mass of the planet is 34.1 x 1015 kg, measure the displacement of the ball at time t = 7 s?
A 1024-kg blue ball is dropped from an initial z-position of 4.2 x 106 m through the center of a planet with radius 8.6 x 106 m. If the mass of the planet is 48.7 x 1015 kg, measure the displacement of the ball at time t = 6 s?
Two asteroids strike head-on: before the collision, asteroid A AmA = 7.5 * 10 3.3 kms 12 kgB Ge has velocity and asteroid B AmB = 1.45 * 10 1.4 kms 13 kgB A has velocity in the opposite direction. If the asteroids stick together, what is the velocity (magnitude and direction) of the new asteroid after the collision?

A 1024-kg blue ball is dropped from an initial z-position of 3.8 x 106 m through the center of a planet with radius 7 x 106 m. If the mass of the planet is 38 x 1015 kg, measure the displacement of the ball at time t = 8 s.
Hunting a black hole. Observations of the light from a certain star indicate that it is part of a binary (two-star) system. This visible star has moves in a circle of radius r1 and has orbital period T. Variations in the brightness of nearby stars suggest that the unseen companion moves in a circle of radius r2 (see the figure). Find the approximate masses (a) m1 of the visible star and (b) m2 of the dark star. Express your answer in terms of r1, r2, T, and G. I asked this question before and recieved an incorrect answer, so I'm asking again.
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 × 103 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 550 kg. The spacecraft took 1.04 days to make one complete circular orbit around Eros. Calculate what the mass of Eros must be.
Answer without rounding off: Journey through the Center of the Earth. A 1024-kg blue ball is dropped from an initial z-position of 3.9 x 106 m through the center of a planet with a radius of 8.8 x 106 m. If the mass of the planet is 42.2 x 1015 kg, measure the displacement of the ball at time t = 6 s?
